The French Dispatch (2021) – Movie Review

I like Wes Anderson and I appreciate the work and care he’s put into this piece, but The French Dispatch left me cold.

With its bold aesthetic mysticism, The Green Knight reminded me why I loved my book of Arthurian myths when I was a kid.

It’s one thing to be silly. It’s another to be dumb.

Ridley Scott’s latest studies medieval misogyny from a uniquely modern perspective.

Daniel Craig’s rugged intensity makes Bond more human than ever in an entertaining -if long- farewell to his long run.

Quo Vadis, Aida? is a rough but necessary film detailing the circumstances around the Srebrenica genocide.

Monsoon is a rich character study, light in the narrative but deep in its themes of identity and grief.

A competent studio thriller of the kind that Hollywood has largely abandoned.

The Beta Test is as entertaining in its comedy as it is savage in its satire.

There may be nothing surprising about Kate, but the action is thrilling enough for a fun afternoon watch.
