    10 to Midnight

    ★½

    There were a number of shocking elements in this sleazy story about a serial killer who murders in the nude, but I was not expecting an 80s-era electric penis sleeve to be introduced as evidence in an interrogation.

    ★★★★

    What if there were a couple that loved each other? Dynamite premise for a spy movie. Becomes even more special when that movie’s directed by Steven Soderbergh with this flawless of a cast. Not a weak link or a wasted frame in this taut, 90-minute gem.

    ★★★

    I’ve heard a lot of retread complaints, but that’s not completely true when Denzel is absolutely feasting AND there’s a monkey in a toga! Hand over Rome to the two of them.

  • The Ritz

    The Ritz

    ★★★

    Second best fight scene set in a bathhouse behind Eastern Promises?

    Also, I know they’re toxic when done poorly, and studios barely invest in comedy anymore, but can we just get one star-studded farce per election cycle? The world would be a better place.
