Yet once again, regardless of the importance of the picture, the execution prevents it from being a project that will reach an appropriately wide audience. Review
There’s nothing even remotely pleasant or absorbing about this tumultuous yarn, and certainly nothing that Sandler’s uncommon persona can save; it’s an overlong, uninteresting, badly arranged, extremely disagreeable downfall that only gets worse as it goes along. Review
A nearly three-hour wait for a single moment of fantastic frenzy amounts to minimal entertainment. Review
For the most part, a gentle sweetness permeates the film, but it’s also such an average, uneventful, small, intimately-designed, down-to-earth, slice-of-life drama that very little of it is memorable. And the parting shots are a dreadful misstep. Review
It’s playful, lighthearted, and humorous, though it’s also peppered with heavier life lessons about generosity and tolerance and friendship. Review
Their commitment to austere sincerity is unquestionably commendable, even if the eye-opening realism doesn’t produce consistent entertainment value. Review
Despite the questionable structuring of Waves, the scenes of raw emotion are thoroughly moving; they’re so unforgettable that they tend to override earlier flaws. Review
Despite the continual laughs, there’s still a nagging sense of something going terribly wrong all of a sudden – and, indeed, not everything goes according to plan. Review
Peeking through the disturbing imagery, morbid hallucinations, and crumbling identities is an engaging character study and a fiendish mix of drama and psychological horror. Review
The conclusion is rife with jaw-dropping sets, lightsaber duels, emotional confrontations, and sentimental throwbacks to recognizable elements not only from the original trilogy but also from The Force Awakens, bringing to an end a remarkably vast collection of cinematic legends and lore, and an acclaimed legacy of sci-fi fantasy prominence. Review
By the end, as the revelations grow more pessimistic and maddening, culminating in the possible publication or quashing of the titular 7,000-page report (along with countless political implications), the movie does transition into something a little more exciting. Review
Lloyd’s story is too plain and unaffecting to measure up to what could have been an insightful, emotional journey chronicling one of television’s most revered and respected legends. Review
Although there are fabricated additives to tie the story together, the subject matter is effectively infuriating. And despite a few pacing issues, the steady build to a welcome conclusion is handled nicely – along the lines of many invented political thrillers. Review
The movie is overlong, even if the scenes with the relevant characters – and the final revelations, with stirring speeches – are riveting. Review
And though the repetitive gags that remind viewers of some of the best bits from the 2017 precursor are still amusing, by the time they’re repeated in a third film (which seems inevitable), they’ll be unbearably stale. Review
By the end of it all, however, the film’s attention to details (resulting in a slow feel), the uncommon blend of comedy and crime, and its influential qualities (toward similar misadventures throughout the decade and beyond, not only for thrills but also for anti-establishment sentiments of the era) tend to outplay the actual entertainment value. Review
The drama is absorbing, if a bit distracting (crossing back and forth between genres), though contrived twists keep the titular characters continually in dire straits. Review
It’s actually rather awe-inspiring that this classic Universal monster would become so influential, considering the underdeveloped structuring, moments of ineffective suspense, and a general deficiency in filmic polish. Review
The mostly ineffective interludes of comic relief feel misplaced, especially since they’re rarely funny (oftentimes slipping into the realm of disgusting) and they stretch out the expectedly brief running time, which is itself predominantly just a series of excuses to show obscured, softcore sex and nudity. Review
The special effects are extraordinary, along with the topsy-turvy sets, augmenting a nerve-wracking plot of distressing exploration, frazzled nerves, unending surprises, and creeping death. Review
It’s certainly one of the most complex, action-packed, and memorable of all the ’60s war epics. Review
The narration is largely unnecessary, as is the bookending of Miles’ fate, but the pacing is swift, the acting is outstanding, and the techniques for generating suspense are superb. Review
It’s also apparent that the filmmaking siblings are adept with screenwriting. The dialogue is smart and cheeky, while the plot is labyrinthine and unpredictable. Review
The majority of the picture struggles to create a truly unique identity; it’s derivative of enough other properties to keep it interesting, but originality eludes it at every turn. Review
