    Bad Boys for Life

    ★★★½

    I'm shocked, Bad Boys For Life is an actual FILM. As in had legitimate heart, an meaningful story, real stakes, and even occasionally followed proper police procedure. Sure, they're getting a bit old, but that was still two solid hours of fun and laughs.

    Rim of the World

    ★★½

    I can't say this was bad, but it seems really conflicted about what it wants to be. Is it family-style Goonies fun? An R rated kid fueled adventure? Stranger Things with aliens? I'm still not sure, but it was enjoyable enough without being particularly memorable.

    Spider-Man: Far From Home

    ★★★

    A clunky start focused far too heavily on Tony Stark instead of Peter Parker eventually overcomes its mundane plotting to generate a second half with an exciting villain and a final act that delivers the Spider-Man we deserve. Tom Holland is growing into the tights, and Jake Gyllenhaal is a notable standout.

  • Teen Spirit

    Teen Spirit

    ★★★

    Selling a story as old as time, with songs that glide on rhymes, Teen Spirit is the epitome of today’s pop music: lacking in substance, but catchy as hell. Max Minghella lands a solid debut, and Elle Fanning once again proves she’s earned the right to sit at the top of the acting charts.
