MOVIE REVIEWS
Now showing around town… maybe streaming.
Tangled Web
Omniscient Reader: The Prophecy is a B movie dressed up like a franchise tentpole.
Baby ‘Steps’
It’s far from fantastic but The Fantastic Four: First Steps has a hokey charm that’s something of a tonic right now.
100% Locust-Free
More dinosaurs, fewer giant grasshoppers, zero Chris Pratt. Jurassic World Rebirth has a lot going for it.
A Well-Oiled Machine
If you’re going to crank out formula, mix it right, like Joseph Kosinksi and Brad Pitt do in F1.
Kid’s Alright
It’s as predictable as it gets but Karate Kid: Legends is better than it has a right to be, even with that guy.
Tiny Dancer
Weird to say, but Ballerina needs to shed John Wick from this John Wick franchise entry.
A Bolt From the Blue
OMG we’ve gotten the first good MCU movie in a dog’s age with Thunderbolts*.
Credits & Debits
Who knew we needed a sequel to The Accountant? Evidently Gavin O’Connor and Ben Affleck did.
Still Hell
Alex Garland and Ray Mendoza don’t reinvent the war picture wheel but they ace ‘You are there’ vibes in Warfare.
All is ‘Lost’
Anderson and Jovovich together again, for the 417th time in In The Lost Lands.
Lots of Pain, MInimal Gain
Seems like the One Man Army is a thing now. Add Novocaine to the canon.
Crap Time to be Cap
There is a shit ton of stuff happening in Captain America: Brave New World, none of it Feige could want.
Zero Sum Filmmaking
You think you know what you’ll get in Detective Chinatown 1900, but you’d be wrong.
The Empire Strikes Again
Wuershan is two-for-two with Creation of the Gods Ii: Demon Force and damn, did he just promise zombies?
