MOVIE REVIEWS
Now showing around town… maybe streaming.
All Squawk
Benedict Cumberbatch stands out with normal skin in so-so semi-horror novel adaptation, The Thing with Feathers.
More of a Duke
Animated Jesus origin story The King of Kings has a very specific market and not enough creativity to attract anyone else.
Almost Campy Enough
A bit more camp and less Sydney Sweeney being toted around like a knapsack and The Housemaid could be a kinky pleasure.
Who Needs Plot?
Sho Miyake’s quiet, spare, thoughtful Two Seasons, Two Strangers proves he’s one of Japan’s best right now.
Good Enough
Wicked: For Good may not be the surprising jolt that Wicked was, but it’s got its moments.
It’s Right There in the Title
Regretting You is precisely what you’d expect from the author of It Ends With Us.
Pro’s ‘Choice’
No Other Choice proves Park Chan-wook’s almost as pissed off with late stage capitalism as Bong Joon-ho is.
‘Battle’ Ready
Put simply One Battle After Another is great shit and deserves every inch of its IMAX space.
Fresh Fruit
Somehow, Da Peng has made what might be the world’s first fruit thriller in The Lychee Road.
Good ‘Bad’ Movie
The Bad Guys 2 goes bad, but in a good way, and not in the way sequels go bad. Good.
Oh, Mickey
Bong Joon-ho still hates the rich, but he adds demagogues to the mix in Mickey 17.
Billion Dollar Baby
Well, there’s certainly more movie in Jiaozi’s billion-dollar grossing Ne Zha 2.
Still a Mystery
Despite alleged maverick Bob Dylan being the subject, A Complete Unknown is as average as it gets.
