Knives Out has a smart script, a brilliant cast, and a humor as sharp as its title suggest. It is not the whodunit you expect; it is better.
The Laundromat (2019) – Movie Review
Soderbergh’s latest tries to do many things but doesn’t stick around long enough to develop any of them. A stellar cast is mostly squandered with brief roles that don’t leave an impact.
Terminator: Dark Fate (2019) – Movie Review
What I wanted from Dark Fate was to see Linda Hamilton being badass in the most bitter, gritty fashion possible, and in that regard the movie delivers.
Matthias & Maxime (2019) – Movie Review
For such a prolific director, Dolan isn’t always making the same film. Here he’s crafted a beautiful portrait of a fierce, messy friendship.
Kathy Griffin: A Hell of a Story (2019) – Movie Review
Aptly titled, A Hell of a Story shows a different Kathy Griffin, one that has weathered a harrowing ordeal and come out of it with truths to tell.
Joker (2019) – Movie Review
Joker is gripping and Joaquin Phoenix is phenomenal in it, but it puts its efforts in contextualizing violence without then having anything to say about it.
Gemini Man (2019) – Movie Review
I spent all of Gemini Man looking for Ang Lee -any trace of him- and couldn’t find him. Gemini Man is a generic vehicle for Will Smith, built around one gimmick that doesn’t justify the exercise.
Kubo and the Two Strings (2016)
I’m kicking myself for missing out on Kubo and the Two Strings when it came out, but happy I got to fix my mistake. It’s a wonder of the imagination, a visual masterpiece, a beautifully evocative story, and just generally a delight.
Ad Astra (2019) – Movie Review
Ad Astra is one of the loneliest science-fiction films I’ve seen, and also a thought-provoking, essential deconstruction of masculinity and loneliness.
Portrait of a Lady on Fire (2019)
Quietly, slowly, Portrait of a Lady on Fire paints a lavish picture of love and friendship, as intellectual as it is passionate.
