This version stands on its own, problems and all, as an interesting tale of an anti-hero… or is it about a tragic villain?

It might be a typical Guy Ritchie film and loaded with every cliché in the book, but it’s still fun.

George Kosturos carries American Fighter. His acting is above average, and his fighting makes him look like this kid look believable. The bouts never feel choreographed or staged for the camera.

The Paper Tigers presents a fresh take on an old genre.

Gregory Bayne’s Making Sense puts the spotlight on a fantastic cast with disabilities and tells a story about disabilities that could only be told as science fiction.

Framed may not be the thriller you want, but it’s a fine drama and morality play.

Ultimately, Vanquish falls into the cliché of typical action films, where the focus is on the action, and the story is a way to string the action together

I’m Not In Love is competently made. Despite the screenwriting-as-therapy formula, it’s entertaining and engaging to watch.

Mortal Kombat is a pretty good representation of the video game. It’s all action and not much else, and normally, I do want more from my movies. But here, that is precisely the point, and I’m okay with that!

The only reason to see this film is if you’re a fan of any of the actors. Everyone is good, but ultimately, the story will let you down.

Monday succeeds in large part to Sebastian Stan and Denise Gough’s performances.

A far as coming-of-age stories go, Once Upon a River is a very sweet story. There’s not a lot of fluff, but there is a lot of heart in a story based on a novel and feels in a way like a novel.

War Path is a good movie with potential. It does a lot with its budget and resources and is worth a watch for any fan of independent filmmaking.

Diving into Sam Harris’ life was fun, and you will have fun too… unless you hate musicals.

It’s a story of very flawed people who followed the pied piper to a new world that doesn’t exist.

The best laughs of Boys vs Girls come at the end, so be patient, and you’ll have fun.

Donny’s Bar Mitzvah just works from start to finish.

Own The Room is fun, hopeful, and inspiring to any future entrepreneur and a must-watch.

A compelling documentary.

Not only is it gorgeous, but an excellent primer for the young set into South Asian culture.

This is must-see mafia viewing.

Though I don’t think 100 Days to Live is necessarily a PSA on suicide prevention, it’s a damn good thriller. I’m still thinking about the morality of that ending even now.

There’s nothing new and nothing we haven’t seen, which means every single moment and plot twist is familiar and predictable.

I love Together Together because it’s a sweet and straightforward story surrounding surrogacy. It’s void of Hollywood dramatics and firmly places Ed Helms into that older best friend category on screen.

The Reunited States is an essential documentary for anyone who’s frustrated with the state of politics today, not only in Washington but at home.

As much as I thought the film’s heist element was unnecessary, which it is, Liman sure knows how to make it exciting and even in a pandemic. Locked Down could have been a much worse movie, but ultimately it’s a love story and a good one too.

The film never takes itself too seriously, considering there are some serious actors in it. In the end, it’s all good fun and a great movie to turn on when you want to hand out with friends and see something truly insane.

In the end, my question is whether Never Rarely Sometimes Always is meant to be just a story or offer something political to say in the great abortion debate. I’m certain the film exists to highlight the stories of young women forced to travel across state lines for abortions. Either way, there’s not enough of either to make it a compelling movie in the end.
