Sharper is one of those twisty, turny caper films that won’t reinvent the genre but makes for a fun enough addition to your watchlist.

What Late Night has going for it is the charisma of its two leads, Mindy Kaling (who also writes) and Emma Thompson, two diametrically opposed characters that bring the film to life when they’re butting heads. The rest of the time, though, the movie goes languid and sort of rolls forward until the next beat.
I really wanted to like Beatriz at Dinner. It has the elements of the exact kind of movie that I relish: a cast of talented actors, a simple premise that allows them to interact with each other, a concept based on character and dialogue.
