It needs intensity, great action, tension, and great creature effects. This film has all of that, as well as a revelatory performance from Amber Midthunder. Review
Ron Howard’s Thirteen Lives is a fine dramatization, but you’d be better off just watching The Rescue, a documentary that is simply much better. Review
I still thought this was a really good little coming-of-age show that, again, I think is perfect for Disney+. I just need a second season to focus more on the family, friends, and culture, but less on world-ending events. Review
The Russo Brothers’ The Gray Man is a fine but undeniably generic globetrotting action-thriller that is buoyed up immensely by its truly star-studded cast. Review
Cooper Raiff’s Cha Cha Real Smooth is a charming and very relatable late-coming-of-age film that features uniformly good performances. Review
In spite of the ending and the trite and cliched writing, the film mostly works because of John Cho and Mia Isaac’s convincing performances. Review
This fourth Thor film suffers from some pacing issues and tonal clashes, but if you liked Thor: Ragnarok, then I’m pretty sure you’ll also enjoy Thor: Love and Thunder, which, in short, is more of the same plus a genuinely creepy villain played by superhero movie royalty. Review
If Trier’s debut film was impressive, then his sophomore feature is, in a word, amazing. Oslo, 31. August is a near-masterpiece and one of the best Scandinavian films of its decade. Review
Joachim Trier’s feature-length debut is wildly impressive and outrageously good. Review
It is bloated, extravagant, exhausting, stylish, deliberately anachronistic, formulaic, and quite flattering to the King of Rock n’ Roll. If it sounds like a somewhat messy epic, it is because that is exactly what it is. But I can honestly say that I liked it. Review
Buoyed up and energized significantly by Chris Hemsworth’s charismatic performance, Joseph Kosinski’s Spiderhead isn’t the home run that his last film, Top Gun: Maverick, was, but it is a science-fiction film with a nice concept, a good soundtrack, and enough star-power to make it worth your while, even though it may not have as much to say as the first two acts suggest. Review
It has got some interesting ideas, some haunting and evocative images, an unsettling atmosphere, strong performances from Kinnear and Buckley, and some crazy (albeit repetitive) body horror that you have to see to believe, but — and this is important — it doesn’t all come together in the end. Review
With this legacy sequel, director Joseph Kosinski and his crew rebuilt what made the original film so iconic, and then they also improved on so much. There are jaw-dropping and awards-worthy flight scenes, a more nuanced central performance, richer themes, and a mission with more depth. Top Gun: Maverick more than exceeded my expectations. Review
Mehdi Avaz’s Toscana is a well-meaning and harmless but cliche-ridden and forgettable snooze led by a miscast Anders Matthesen. Review
It’s the kind of catch-all cinematic experience that I think can help you to understand someone else through its unique, inspired, but somewhat referential transportive science fiction storytelling. It’s funny, it’s exciting, and it is so very peculiar, and I was just so impressed. This is the first masterpiece of 2022. Review
There is also a lot here that simply didn’t work for me as well as intended, so I won’t call it a great movie (it certainly isn’t a top tier Marvel movie), but what Sam Raimi has added to it is enough for me to say that I really liked it, though I can fully understand why some would really struggle with it. Review
The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent is a consistently funny action bromance meta-comedy that doubles as a loving tribute to Nicolas Cage, as well as his exaggerated on-screen persona. Review
For horror fans, it might be fun to check out because of its obvious inspirations (and Englund’s vocal cameo) and its gimmicky pemise (which is better on paper than it is executed), but I really can’t recommend this one. Review
It won’t be for everyone, but it absolutely is an amazing experience and an awesome picture, in part thanks to Skarsgård’s fully committed performance. I really do think that this is Robert Eggers’ best film. Review
It is a disturbing and thought-provoking thriller with a lot on its mind, such as manners, conflict avoidance, and the impotence of the modern man. Review
On the whole, I don’t think it has as much to say as 2020’s Sound of Metal did, and I do think it is both formulaic, predictable, and slight. It isn’t the film that I would’ve voted for, but I do think it is a very sweet and very good film. Review
It’s a fascinating film about the power of suggestion, deception, mentalism, and drifters, and it deserves a lot of praise for its brilliant production design, which has helped to make it one of the best-looking films of 2021. Review
It’s a terribly dull film that had so much potential on paper. It’s one of the year’s first real movie disappointments for me. Review
What matters is that one of America’s greatest filmmakers has remade a terrific musical with his West Side Story, which is technically superb, old school, and awe-inspiring. I loved it more than I thought I would. Review
