MOVIE REVIEWS
Now showing around town… maybe streaming.
Begging for It
Mercy is one of those movies that makes the case for more cops with bigger guns and caution over too much AI. Revolutionary!
Feeling a Bit Blue
It’s Oona Chapin to the rescue in the third, too familiar entry in James Cameron’s billion dollar franchise, Avatar: Fire and Ash.
‘Past’ Imperfect
Fans: Louis Koo is going Back to the Past. Non-fans? Maybe try SpongeBob.
Raising Something
Bi Gan’s Resurrection goes down a very, very, very deep Cannes rabbit hole.
Daft Punk > NIN
If you prefer Nine Inch Nails to Daft Punk, you may prefer Tron: Ares to Tron: Legacy. May.
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.
Oh, Mickey
Bong Joon-ho still hates the rich, but he adds demagogues to the mix in Mickey 17.
Superior Programming
Fire up Robot Dreams and The Iron Giant with The Wild Robot and have a perfect triple bill.
No Disguises
Holy crap, is this a good Transformers movie? Yup, Transformers One is a good Transformers movie
Familiar Ground
Alien: Romulus sends the franchise back to horror territory under the gooey hand of Fede Álvarez.
