Gothic Castles and Corrupted Faith: The Nun Expands the Conjuring Universe
While I’m not going to argue that The Nun is a good film, I do think that’s its more interesting than its detractors give it credit for.
Hearts Beat Loud (2018)
Hearts Beat Loud, a colourful indie pop film, finds it most joyous moments in its father and daughter jamming together.
Crazy Rich Asians (2018)
I’m a sucker for a good rom-com, and this certainly is one. Crazy Rich Asians is consistently entertaining, filled with good-looking people and decent jokes.
Kin (2018)
There’s no reason Kin couldn’t have used its sci-fi hook to examine the degradation of the American working class.
Searching Transcends Its On-Screen Gimmick
Is that stray comment five-deep in missing Margot’s Messenger foreshadowing or irrelevant? You’ll have to wait and see – and watch carefully.
The Yellow Birds (2017)
The Yellow Birds isn’t so much bad as bland: an unforgiveable sin in today’s crowded marketplace.
Arizona’s Killer Comedy Misses the Mark
Arizona has a killer concept for a killer comedy, but despite a promising opening it can’t execute what should’ve been cutting satire.
Stop Making Sense (1984)
Stop Making Sense builds from a sparse stage and a cassette player into a triumphant, celebratory kaleidoscope of music and backup dancers and ridiculously oversized menswear.
Submergence (2017)
There’s much to admire about Wim Wenders’ latest film. But unfortunately, Submergence is sunk by its tedious story.
The Other Side of Hope (2017)
What turned me around on The Other Side of Hopewas how it married black comedy conventions with an empathetic, humanistic approach.
