As I said, I don’t think this is the “worst movie of the year,” like many have said. (Trust me, there are many others in the running for that title.) However, I think it’s very messy. Jolting flashbacks and frequent traumatic sequences make for a convoluted narrative structure to manipulate the viewer emotionally. Hillbilly Elegy has an impressive performance from Glenn Close, but it could use a good terminator to come in and make some changes.
Read MoreRun Review
This is a story that’s themes have been explored a lot in recent media. Although Run is familiar and a bit predictable, it remains an effective thriller that will keep you entertained.
Read MoreDash & Lily Review
Dash & Lily is a festive, fun, and feel-good holiday watch. You’ll find yourself swept up in the story of two teens’ quest to find each other in New York City at Christmas.
Read MoreOn The Rocks Review
On the Rocks is Sofia Coppola’s most low-key film to date. Rashida Jones and Bill Murray bring great chemistry to the father-daughter dynamic of the plot. However, the cliched storyline makes it feel like a straight to streaming release more than a groundbreaking achievement.
Read MoreRebecca Review: The Mystery of Manderley
Although it doesn’t live up to Alfred Hitchcock’s classic, Rebecca is impressively filmed and well-acted. Regardless of your familiarity with the original, it’s a mystery that grabs your attention and keeps you engaged.
Read MoreHubie Halloween Review: Stereotypical Sandler

Read MoreThe Broken Hearts Gallery Review: Heartbreak Hotel
“The Broken Hearts Gallery” is a charming, heartfelt rom-com that entertains and uplifts the audience. If you get a chance to see it, don’t miss out!
Read MoreA Call To Spy Review
A Call To Spy offers up a piece of history that we should all become more acquainted with. I didn’t know about Virginia Hall, Vera Atkins, Noor Khan, or any of the female spies working with the SOE in World War II. It’s a fascinating part of history that should be learned. However, I do wish the film was more exciting in exploring such an interesting subject matter.
Read MoreEnola Holmes Review: Mystery Lurks at Every Corner
Although some of the writing could be stronger, Enola Holmes is a charming film full of creativity, action, and heart! Its impressive cast makes the most of their time on screen. This is a Netflix original that I'll be sure to watch again very soon.
Read MoreThe Devil All The Time Review
There are some intriguing ideas presented in The Devil All The Time. Unfortunately, the film bit off more than it could chew due to its staggering number of plotlines. While the film boasts an impressive cast, this is like watching a depressing slog of awful events.
