6/10 Godzilla vs. Kong delivers epic titan mayhem as promised. Unfortunately, it is all weighed down by a laughable script and a slew of weak and underdeveloped humans taking most of the screen time. In search of his home, Kong is found at odds with an enraged Godzilla, which ultimately leads to an adventure to … Continue reading ‘Godzilla vs. Kong’ Review

‘Zack Snyder’s Justice League’ Review

Together, Batman and Wonder Woman work quickly to recruit a … Continue reading ‘Zack Snyder’s Justice League’ Review
‘The Comey Rule’ Review
★★★ Brendan Gleeson and Jeff Daniels carry a heavy-handed recreation of the lead up to the 2016 election and Comey's relationship with Trump, with mixed results. The two-part miniseries recounts James Comey's life from his nomination as FBI Director by President Obama to his relationship with President Trump after a disastrous 2016 election decision. There … Continue reading ‘The Comey Rule’ Review
‘Enola Holmes’ Review
★★★½ Millie Bobby Brown shines in this charming and engaging detective story from the director of ‘Fleabag.’ When her mother goes missing, Enola Holmes must go on an adventure using her wits while outsmarting her brothers Sherlock and Mycroft. Millie Bobby Brown burst into the scene less than five years ago in one of the … Continue reading ‘Enola Holmes’ Review
‘The Devil All the Time’ Review
★★★½ Far from flawless, ‘The Devil All the Time’ still manages to stand out thanks to a stellar cast, beautiful visuals, and an engaging story. The film follows the interconnected lives of a war veteran and his son, a pair of serial killers, a preacher, and the sheriff of the small town of Knockemstiff, Ohio. … Continue reading ‘The Devil All the Time’ Review
‘Mulan’ Review
★★½ Pretty visuals can't save this dull remake from a weak script, awkward performances, and a noticeable lack of energy. A young woman, Mulan, takes the place of her father in the Imperial Army of China by disguising herself as a man. It's fair to say I've had a complicated relationship with the Disney live-action … Continue reading ‘Mulan’ Review
‘The Kissing Booth 2’ Movie Review
★½ Even with a committed performance by Joey King, ‘The Kissing Booth 2’ can’t overcome its lazy, messy script and overall pointlessness. With boyfriend Noah (Jacob Elordi) off to Harvard, Elle must venture back to high school for her senior year with a long-distance relationship. It’s almost hilarious to see how fast Netflix churns out … Continue reading ‘The Kissing Booth 2’ Movie Review
‘Da 5 Bloods’ Review
★★★★½ Spike Lee delivers an epic and riveting adventure with an effective thought-provoking punch, instantly making it one of the best films of his career. 'Da 5 Bloods' finds a group of Vietnam veterans, haunted by their past, searching for a missing treasure and the remains of an old friend. There's little doubt nowadays that … Continue reading ‘Da 5 Bloods’ Review
‘Extraction’ Review
★★★ Chris Hemsworth's 'Extraction' is barely saved from a mediocre script by jaw-dropping action sequences, making it, at the very least, a worthwhile Netflix quarantine watch. After another cartel captures the son of an incarcerated mob boss in India, mercenary Tyler Rake (Hemsworth) is tasked to save him and guard him out of the city. … Continue reading ‘Extraction’ Review
‘1917’ Review
★★★★½ Stunning, breathtaking and exhilarating, Sam Mendes' 1917 instantly becomes a classic in its genre. In 1917, two young soldiers are given the task to deliver a message that could save over a thousand soldiers from an ambush. Mendes has never shied away from sensitive topics. I have always admired his knack for portraying suburban … Continue reading ‘1917’ Review
