Movie reviews of Jeremie Sabourin

Despite its stunning CGI and action scenes, though, Alita: Battle Angel just misses the mark with its confounding story. It was truly tough to rate this one as it’s actually entertaining. Yet, the messy plot is simply unforgivable. Review

Whether it’s through storytelling, originality, or thrills, The Prodigy falls well short of meeting the heights of its contemporaries. Review

It’s likely that you won’t hate the time you spend watching Vice but if the movie isn’t going to take itself seriously, then why should its audience? Review

At its root, the film’s a heartfelt story of a strained relationship that will be all too familiar to some. Review

Polar is a step back not only for comic book movies but for cinema in general with its misogynistic ideals, appalling characters, and horrendous storytelling. Review

For the majority of the runtime, viewers will find themselves enthralled by the quirky tandem of Imants and Harijs. Their interactions with each other as well as with the rest of the cast are simply excellent and there’s always something to chuckle at. Review

Sure, the characters and performances are fine for the most part. Literally everything else is garbage. Review

A wonderful little short film. Review

The film tries to be so many things and, frankly, isn’t good at any of them. Review

Isn’t a bad film by any means but it has its issues. Review

It’s a well acted and put together film by a veteran director in Susanne Bier. It may not be worthy of the praise and hype heaped upon it but it’s a solid watch. I... Review

While it doesn’t boast any monumental storytelling, it has heart and isn’t afraid to have fun. In terms of DC, Aquaman is easily the most lighthearted film from the company in years... Review

While there seem to be some missteps in Dede overall, there are aspects of it that are stunning. Again, the locations are absolutely beautiful but also as desolate and bleak as the story itself. Review

A fine Spider-Man film. It features likable characters, amazing animation, and an interesting story overall. Review

The aspects of it that are really good manage to hold your interest for the full 90 minutes. Though, the negatives bog it down a bit more than one would like. Review

It tries to disguise itself but fails miserably and, frankly, it doesn’t need to do this. Review

Isn’t perfect due to its audio issues but it’s still a brief and effective short film that warrants a watch. Review

It may not be their best work but it’s certainly a conversation piece that may grow on viewers with subsequent watches. Review

While Blue My Mind may not end up as a classic coming-of-age story, it shares some excellent company and does plenty to stand on its own merits as well. Review

Although Creed II doesn’t exceed the quality of its predecessor, it’s still nestled in the top tier of the franchise. Review

Where McGovern’s previous film tried to do too much, the writer/director hits the sweet spot with Hush. The story is concise and the message is clear. Review

It’s not poorly written, acted, or shot. In fact, it’s the opposite in all of those categories. Though, it’s easily Steve McQueen’s worst film. Review

The visuals, the music, and the acting are all very good and the film’s influences don’t mimic as much as pay homage to films of old. Review

The story is so painfully bland that decent acting and action scenes can’t save it. In addition, these are not the same characters from Fincher’s film and it’s not the fault of the cast. Review
