The LEGO Batman Movie

“At its best and most brilliant in these moments of winking, hyperbolic-yet spiritually-reverent adaptation.”

The Light Between Oceans

“Bathed in exquisitely aching restraint and soul-rending inner turmoil, its potboiler escapist theater.”

Greater

“Worth watching, particularly for fans of fighting-giants, feel-good athletics films.”

War Dogs

“There’s harrowing ugly-truth-telling to keep things entertaining and eye-opening all the way through.”

Blood Father

“The dialogue is clever, laced with satire, but not too much; in spots, it’s lightly reminiscent of Shane Black.”

Ghostbusters

“With its somewhat scaled-back scares, it feels a bit more like a kids’ movie than the original.”

Knight of Cups

“A concert for the soul and the senses and latest reminder of how very desperately we need Malick.”

Triple 9

“A somewhat Byzantine cat-and-cat-and-mouse-and-more-cats-and-other-cats-dressed-as-mice game.”
