Flora and Son

Yet another charming and subtle music-driven winner from writer-director John Carney (‘Sing Street’, ‘Once’), ‘Flora and Son’ is full of life and love and all the things that can conspire to make a movie worthwhile. That includes the cast, led by Eve Hewson (daughter of Bono) and Joseph Gordon-Levitt, who […]

Expend4bles

Sylvester Stallone and Jason Statham lead the way in this wham-bang actioner that slowly but surely turns into ‘Die Hard on a Cargo Ship’. It has its moments, sure, and the fight sequences and testosterone overload are enough to keep your interest (assuming you’re up for fight sequences and a […]

No One Will Save You

Kaitlyn Dever stars as community outcast Brynn in this efficient and solid sci-fi/horror flick about an alien invasion in a small town. The gimmick here is that not only is it essentially a one-woman show, but only five words of dialogue are spoken over the film’s 93 minutes. It’s a […]

Love at First Sight

On the surface, it’s a fizzy little young-adult rom-com about an American girl (Haley Lu Richardson) and a British boy (Ben Hardy), who meet cute on a transatlantic flight and then spend the film trying to get back in touch once they land and get separated. Beneath everything, though, it’s […]

A Haunting in Venice

Kenneth Branagh’s third Agatha Christie-based film is the best of the bunch so far, a far spookier and creepier effort that finds his enigmatic Detective Poirot trying to solve a murder case at Halloween in Italy (which isn’t really a thing, but moving on…). Skewed camera angles, the occasional fish-eye […]

Office Race

The latest effort from Comedy Central seems a lot like a movie where someone came up with a snappy title and then tried (and only halfway succeeded) to make a film around it. ‘SNL’ vet Beck Bennett stars as the office schlub who, to impress his aggressively testosterone-laden boss (Joel […]

The Equalizer 3

Denzel Washington is back as Robert McCall, the Jason Bourne-like one-man killing machine in the third (and last?) installment of director Antoine Fuqua’s franchise. Oddly enough, the installments keep getting better with each outing, culminating with this Italy-set adventure, where McCall takes it upon himself to save a small coastal […]

Gran Turismo

Director Neill Blomkamp burst on the scene in 2009 with the incredible ‘District 9’, but since then, it’s been a downhill slide (‘Elysium’, ‘Chappie’). His latest offering is a whiz-bang race car movie that combines the popular PlayStation franchise with the true(ish) story of how a gamer wound up behind […]

Retribution

The latest interchangeable Liam Neeson action extravaganza finds our hero in a very ‘Speed’-like situation after he gets a phone call that a bomb has been planted in his car, and that it’ll go off unless he keeps driving, and (gasp!) his kids are along for the ride! Sounds like […]

Vacation Friends 2

I’m not entirely sure 2021’s ‘Vacation Friends’ was crying out for a sequel, but here we are. Yes, the first outing (a Hulu original) was relatively entertaining, but not so much this lazy and pointless follow-up. Lil Rel Howery, Yvonne Orji, John Cena, and Meredith Hagner are all back as […]
