My Reviews(22)

The Electric State
It’s not so much that The Electric State is bad - but it is. It’s just also so boring and uninspired

A Minecraft Movie
I’ve never played Minecraft, but the kids in the theater loved it which is what matters. But the only real fun I had was Momoa and Black’s bromance. If that was the focus of the movie, it could’ve been great. Instead, often bogged down by a familiar narrative and boring villain

Last Breath
Just a super duper solid and thrilling true story. Harrelson and Liu and Cole are all really good. Honestly pretty gripping and effective

The Monkey
The Monkey is gory pulpy fun. Some really good imagery with the monkey, and Theo James was actually pretty solid. Characters are just pretty thin and the amount it focuses on the origin/backstory really surprised me. But there’s some really fun (in a twisted way) death sequences and dark humor to keep it entertaining

Paddington in Peru
Still charming, but not quite as much. Antonio Banderas is having fun which is nice

You're Cordially Invited
Super charmed by Ferrell and Witherspoon. It’s got the hijinks to keep things light and fun

Mickey 17
Classic Bong Joon ho dark comedy. Reminded me a lot of Okja with its very big performances, round CGI creatures, and humor. The political commentary isn’t as sharp or poignant as some of Bong’s other work, but there’s still a lot to like here. Robert Pattinson is tremendous and Ruffalo steals all the scenes. I had a wonderful time

Snow White
Rachel Zegler gives a great performance and deserves to have been in a much better movie. She's terrific, it's just a shame the movie isn't

Captain America: Brave New World
I wish Anthony Mackie got a better result for his first solo Marvel movie. Brave New World has its flaws to be sure, and despite the messy outcome here, there's still a level of enjoyment to be had. Sam and Joaquin's dynamic works, Isaiah Bradley's role is strong, and Harrison Ford as Red Hulk is still cool. Could have paid off some MCU teases better and ironed out a sharper story. The action, particularly the Celestial Island fight, did work for me.

Flight Risk
Flight Risk needed so much more of Mark Wahlberg's hammy villain performance for it really work

Den of Thieves 2: Pantera
I wish I could love Den of Thieves 2 more, but its execution is still too uneven. Leaning more into Big Nick and Donnie's bromance was smart, though. I was just missing some of the heart-racing action that the first film had more of

One of Them Days
There are some really big laughs in One of Them Days. For my money, the blood bank sequence is the funniest part. Keke Palmer and SZA are so good together
