Movie reviews of David Whitley

Hard hitting and presently poignant.

Though Robbie never disappears into the role, she completely owns the role and makes it believable.

Filled with symbolism, imagery, and love, Mutie and the Beast will have you falling for a fish.

It may be too intense for some viewers, but I think that it’s a necessary film.

Breathtaking visuals are given at the expense of characterization, but Nolan steers this aircraft to the ground deftly.

Shifting shades of gray pour through each and every character.

Returning to the finale of the rebooted series, strong developments of secondary characters assist the story to stay in the upper echelon of science fiction.

Filled with emotional beats throughout, the special effects still raise this film to be the best in the series.

Hits the right notes emotionally while still giving an amazing technical spectacle.

This series limps out and please let’s let it stay that way.

A decent idea turns sour in this sequel to the popular Acapella movie.

Glee the movie turns out to not be as bad as I expected.

Indescribably disappointing.

A comic book brought to screen.

The restart to the franchise gets off on the right foot.

Better than the last one due to a more interesting villain, but too much plot wasted.

Minions, minions, and more minions.

This premiere from Illumination studios is a solid performer.

This French film goes through some pretty intense moments, with fairly good acting.

It’s exactly the movie that you’d expect – and that’s not a bad thing.

Flashy and vibrant and full of life, but falters in the final execution.

A decent idea and a harried performance ultimately goes wasted in this slow burning thriller.

Sappy and lovey, but loses sight of what could have made it great.

A good cast goes wasted in this CGI fueled monstrosity.
