The Little Things Review
There’s no doubt that The Little Things had a ton of potential. Three Oscar winners starring in a mystery thriller sounds like a success to me. Unfortunately, its dull script and jumbled editing make for a disappointment. (And those are big things.)

Malcolm & Marie Review
Malcolm & Marie’s lead performances and top-notch cinematography can’t save the film from the repetitive and messy script that brings the whole movie down.

Soul Review
Soul boasts beautiful animation and a talented voice cast. Yet, I walk away from another Pixar film feeling a bit tired of being fed the same formula over and over again.

Promising Young Woman Review
There are aspects of Promising Young Woman that I loved and others that I hated. It’s got tonal shifts that will make your head spin. This is a stylistically impressive film with a fantastic lead performance. But I simply can’t ignore such an unnecessarily toxic ending.

Mank Review: Silver Screen Screenwriter
Mank does not prove itself to be David Fincher’s best film. However, fans of filmmaking will enjoy this look at Old Hollywood that feels like it's been taken straight from the era.

Hillbilly Elegy Review: A Mediocre Terminator
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.

Grab your cardigans because Folklore: The Long Pond Studio Sessions is a must-watch for Taylor Swift fans (and anyone who enjoyed the album.) The behind-the-scenes look into each song brings a whole new layer to the album. While the acoustic performances are like a Folklore concert brought right to your living room!

Run 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.
