Promising Young Woman is a definite conversation-starter and the first thing you might say upon its conclusion is a breathless exclamation of, “Wow.”

Possessor is a masterfully realized visual treat that manages to unnerve and disturb without any consideration or concern for the audience’s comfort and well-being.

Wonder Woman 1984 is fun, splashy, and doesn’t lose sight of its characters and their emotional states even as it elevates the world-annihilation stakes.

Tenet is a headache disguised as a movie.

I’m Your Woman does for the gangster/crime genre what You Were Never Really Here did for the loner revenge thriller.

Let Run serve as a prime example of how you can take a simple story and create a lean, mean thriller that provides doses of satisfaction and triumph.

Antebellum is divided almost equally into 30-minute thirds, and it’s the structure that helps to aid in its mystery while also stifling its larger implications.

Ultimately, Superman: Man of Tomorrow is bland, predictable, and pretty vanilla from start to finish.

We didn’t need a third Bill and Ted big screen adventure but I’m happy that it still feels, even thirty years later, remarkably like Bill and Ted.

The movie Ava was never meant to have this title.

The Project Power playbook is pretty familiar and underwhelming in its creativity and development.

The new indie thriller is an uncanny and unexpected reflection of our uncertain times and it makes She Dies Tomorrow even more resonant.

The Painted Bird was a book I never expected to be adapted to film.

Palm Springs is a delightful new sci-fi rom-com bursting with imagination.

The Last Days of American Crime is a staggering waste of 150 minutes.

Because they are actually wrapping up a continuity that had fifteen films overall, Apokolips War had a lot of heavy lifting to do storywise

Extraction is an action movie that hits just enough of that sweet spot to be satisfying.

Also, as of this writing we are experiencing the 2020 Pandemic, and Porno is streaming for half price on some sites, but good luck finding it by typing Porno into the search bar.

If you’ve ever wanted to watch a disappointing 90s indie crime version of Waiting for Godot, then Among Them is chief among them.

Advertised as a “Classic Cruise Ship Time Travel Assassination Love Story,” Same Boat definitely lives up to this very specific synopsis.
