Despite spending decades in the pipeline, it has ended up as nothing more than a forgettable and unnecessary late-summer movie season update on a beloved 90s cult hit. Review
It’s funny, oddly sweet in moments, freaky, occasionally sexy, and absolutely thrilling — the runtime flew by, for me. Review
On the whole, although it is perhaps slightly uneven and has notable warts, Blink Twice is a solid and relatively promising start to Zoë Kravitz’s career as a feature director. Review
Spaeny does a phenomenal job of telling a lot with very few speaking lines, as her nuanced work helps to give you somewhat of an idea of how she feels. Review
It is a relatively safe playing of the hits that does, however, have moments of greatness in its evocation of the film series’ classic horror roots, as well as a small handful of clever new sequences. Review
Deadpool & Wolverine is an entertaining and unashamed theme park ride of a superhero film that knows exactly what it is and has a lot of fun with what it is... Review
Twisters is an exciting Hollywood blockbuster disaster film that is packed with pretty much everything you could ask for, including a super entertaining performance from one of Hollywood’s rising stars, who manages to give the film a needed boost of energy and charisma right when it starts to feel too much like a retread. Review
Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom is a messy end to the DCEU. It features a jumbled overall narrative, a bunch of actors that have been wasted, a tonal mishmash, and so many jokey references to better superhero films that it ends up feeling like the film is shooting itself in its own foot — or, should I say, fin? Review
The key strengths of A Quiet Place: Day One are the core performances, its moments of great poignancy and beauty, and the ways this film feels connected to the sensibilities of its primary filmmaker, Michael Sarnoski. Admittedly, I don’t think it comes close to being as effective as the first film in the series... Review
Despite its well-trodden narrative elements and its overall predictability, Gareth Edwards’ The Creator succeeds thanks to touching character moments, a capable cast, great sci-fi action filmmaking, and jaw-droppingly good visuals. Review
An extremely entertaining and charming romantic dark comedy... Review
It is a biblical and mythological revenge coming-of-age saga soaked in gasoline that includes intriguing and important politics, gorgeous visuals, great performances, and memorable set-pieces. Review
But despite its structure and its obvious and convenient ending, I will say that I did enjoy this a fair bit. Although I do think the narrative underserved David Corenswet, I thought Lucy Boynton and Justin H. Min brought a charming and realistic on-screen presence... Review
It’s a more than worthy sequel with breathtaking VFX and action, as well as a gripping narrative. Review
The Fall Guy works as a tribute to stunt work. But the film also works wonderfully as an engaging and likable action-comedy romance by allowing its stars to do what they do best. It also happens to be arguably David Leitch’s best work as a solo film director. Review
It is an exhilarating film from start to finish whose only false notes are the overwhelming amount of times it jumps around in its non-linearly unfolding narrative. Review
It is a film where I have complex feelings about its intentions and its deliberate vagueness, but, at the same time, it is also undeniable, at least to me, that it features great filmmaking and performances that, along with its thought-provoking aspects, help to make it one of the most memorable films of the year thus far. Review
Doug Liman’s Road House remake is by no means offensively bad, and I can understand if a lot of people will have fun with it as a disposable popcorn movie. But fans of the original will probably struggle with the additions and exclusions to the original narrative. Review
Betttinelli-Olpin and Gillett definitely understood the comedy inherent in the premise, and the film works as another example of them carving themselves their own little corner of modern horror filmmaking in America. Review
Peter Farrelly’s Ricky Stanicky has a terrible title and some contemptible main character behavior, but it also includes a titular character performed so well that it singlehandedly saves the movie. Review
Adam Wingard’s Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire is a fun but hollow monster mash-up. Review
This is a film that is occasionally quite funny and which features several enjoyable performances, but which is also blatantly overstuffed. Review
Quicksand is an unconvincing, boring, and poorly executed dud. I hope that the filmmakers and actors land on their feet after this and get to do something that better highlights their talents. Review
Looking back at Nightwatch, Ole Bornedal’s English-language remake of the Danish horror favorite Nattevagten, it is, on its own, a relatively unremarkable horror-thriller film albeit with a surprisingly stellar cast, who were saddled with this unfortunate mishap. Review
