    Black Bag

    Hoped #BlackBag would be gripping but it never reaches that level of satisfaction. A rather basic, chatty, low-key spy saga that gets slightly more interesting as it goes on but doesn't sizzle or inspire you to truly care. Even at 93 minutes some of the scenes feel way too long.

  • Paddington in Peru

    Paddington in Peru

    #PaddingtonInPeru isn’t as gentle as the first two films. There’s still some whimsy and definitely heart (especially the core relationship between Paddington and Aunt Lucy). Lots of movement, action and VFX, with slapstick sequences for the youngest viewers. #SaturdayScreening

    The Electric State

    Just screened The Russo Bros. $320 million dud #TheElectricState. Tons of VFX and lots of stars in forgettable roles. Brown and Pratt look disinterested. Yet another generic "humans vs. robots or can they get along?" story. No momentum. Overblown '90s score. Schmaltzy final act.

  • The Monkey

    The Monkey

    #TheMonkey’s a trainwreck. Perplexing story decisions about the twins, son, townspeople and the monkey’s powers. Nearly every character is moronic. But most of all the comedy’s awful. Mean-spirited, uppity and simply for shock-value. Sophisticated 2023 version was so much better.
