MOVIE REVIEWS
Now showing around town… maybe streaming.
The Right Kind of Suck
Nosferatu dispenses with the sparkling and the suave as Robert Eggers brings back the monster.
Love Scam: Take 2
Aside from positing 38 is practically dead, Salli is an inoffensive coming of romantic age drama.
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.
Virtue Intact
Forbidden Fairytale could use a lot more of the ‘forbidden’ to really make a point.
Needs More Diva
Angelina Jolie closes Pablo Larrain’s bad bitch trilogy in Maria, but she’s not the baddest.
Crap Time to be Cap
There is a shit ton of stuff happening in Captain America: Brave New World, none of it Feige could want.
Zero Sum Filmmaking
You think you know what you’ll get in Detective Chinatown 1900, but you’d be wrong.
Worlds Away
Living in Two Worlds means well, but that doesn’t make it particularly exciting.
‘Room’ to Move
Pedro Almodóvar’s The Room Next Door is a meditation on death that’s really about life.
The Empire Strikes Again
Wuershan is two-for-two with Creation of the Gods Ii: Demon Force and damn, did he just promise zombies?
I’m With Her
Drew Hancock’s very not-AI thriller Companion isn’t about the companion you think it is.
Very Vincible
Invincible Swordsman is indeed a movie, with, like, actors and stuff, and Zzzzz…
Mostly Bearable
Maybe the thin air got to the creatives behind Paddington in Peru and left them a touch lightheaded.
A Bit Mangy
If you’ve been waiting for a quiet, contemplative, un-howly werewolf flick, Wolf Man is for you.
Still Waiting…
Italy’s 2023 box office champ There’s Still Tomorrow and director Paola Cortellesi have a few things to say. Sit down, Barbie.
