    Captain Marvel

    ★★½

    The excitement of Endgame did Captain Marvel a lot of favors, and it's clear that a rush job was made to push out a movie before the character was figured out. This is a shame, given that Brie is very charming in the scenes that allow her to emote, and most of these don't appear until the final moments of the film.

    ★★

    I have to respect the craft and dedication required to have this movie look true to the style of a 70's production, but I wish they spent some of that timeon the story. It amounts to a very impressive display of dress up.

    Fear and Loathing on the Road to Hollywood

    ★★★★

    It's incredible how timely Thompson's political skepticism continues to be. The blatant disregard by the public to acknowledge Nixon's crimes just 5 years after Watergate really hits home how short the attention span is of the American people.

  • Hereditary

    Hereditary

    ★★★★★

    A movie less concerned with scaring you in the moment, but instead with the dread that lurks after.
    Hereditary is a masterwork of suspense, tension, and raw emotion that has been sorely lacking in the era of jump-scares.
