The subject matter here is certainly worthy of exploration, but such serious subject matter being relegated to an unsatisfying twist ending makes the message ring hollow. Recensie

Humor is subjective, and if a nearly two-hour live-action Looney Tunes cartoon is something you’re after you will probably find this endlessly amusing. Recensie

While the emotional tradeoffs are explored with an effectively dour grounding — and Greer channels the emotional weight of it all with aplomb — the film does not break new ground in the genre. Recensie

The quality of the talking head interviews is apparent, and they shed plenty of light on the production of the disgraced special. All the while, the doc maintains a light humor that goes beyond merely pointing at the special and laughing. Recensie

This world-building points to the cleverness of the film. The script innocently mocks wellness culture and technology dependence. Recensie

Shin Kamen Rider is a light and at times exciting action film. It may be the weakest of this series of Shin films (Shin Godzilla and Shin Ultraman being the others). But it still manages to strike a tone that balances cheese and sincerity effectively. Recensie

The film does not drag or feel thin, as Fessenden takes pains to unearth the turmoil that results from Charley’s condition and flesh out the small town at the center of his rampage. Recensie

This driving thematic arc could be mapped onto any number of real-world analogues, but I ultimately feel the film functions better as a genre exercise than as a social allegory. Recensie

Stay Online is an intense, slightly belabored experience that works best when it seeks to show compassion between individuals. Recensie

Sympathy for the Devil is constructed rather conventionally—a fitting complement to a story which builds slowly toward unimaginative twists. Recensie

The Flash has enough going for it in the action, comedy, and nostalgia departments to appease both DC fans and general audiences. Recensie

No matter which way this MCU ship turns as it continues through its multiverse era, this trilogy of films will be able to stand on its own. Given what the big studio franchise has become in the wake of Marvel’s success, this is a pleasant and welcome surprise. Recensie

For all of its fast-talking plotiness and attempts at witty humor, Operation Fortune lacks the vim and vigor of a grand-scale action comedy. Recensie

For what its worth, there are shots in here that look fantastic and the visual effects are sufficient for what the film needs of them. As far as bears and cocaine go, though, that combination alone is not enough to hang your would-be cult film on. Especially if you are in on the joke and it’s the only cohesive joke you have.

Act of Violence is a very talky movie, and much of that talking is banal and takes place in real time. Recensie

Magic Mike’s Last Dance is the low point in the trilogy. It lacks the characters and relatively-speaking tighter story structure of Magic Mike and the picaresque ode to pleasure of Magic Mike XXL. Recensie

On a final note, the film is shot really well. Shyamalan puts more personality into his camerawork than he does into his characters. Recensie

Infinity Pool is by no means mainstream viewing, and even those who appreciated Possessor may walk out of this new film from Cronenberg feeling cold. Recensie

It’s no horror film, but it tightly captures a specific feeling, a fear of the unknown that is mostly absent in Sick. In Sick, the unknown is a plot device. And the fear, if it exists at all, is in the framing. Recensie

The narrative is well structured and rarely feels its length. It is the type of feel-good (after a few scenes of feel-not-so-good) film that will delight some and, for the rest, mercifully doesn’t overstay its welcome. Recensie

As with Cooper's other films, though, The Pale Blue Eye is material that is missing something — some intangible piece of the puzzle that would render it remarkable. Recensie
