    The Substance

    ★★½

    Watching this in a full theater would have been a blast! But I didn't, so it kind of felt more like a cool branding exercise or a series of memes fashioned to feel like a music video from the McG era rather than a movie that said anything. I did laugh, though, especially at the end.

  • Nickel Boys

    Nickel Boys

    ★★★★½

    The rare movie that rises above the source material from which it's adapted, Nickel Boys is devastating and innovative. Technically impressive and formally inventive, but not so much that it didn't make me tear up at the end.

    Juror #2

    ★★★½

    A movie for adults that would have absolutely slayed in 1994 (a genre I sincerely love more and more as I age.) One need not see Juror #1 to understand the intricacies of the plot.

  • The Talented Mr. Ripley

    The Talented Mr. Ripley

    ★★★★½

    Revisiting for the first time in about 25 years, the fact that Jude Law's Dickie Greenleaf is the most gorgeous anyone has ever been captured on film is one of the many reasons the many films compared to this one will never, ever be her.
