    69: The Saga of Danny Hernandez
    This documentary may give some hardcore fans insight into the artifice, but the film is ultimately a begrudging, disgusting, and unnecessary story of a kid who never deserved our attention in the first place.

    Monster
    In telling the story of the after-school life of a young, Black, and talented creative living in Harlem attempting to find his vision, the film feels like a missed opportunity to shine a light on lives scarcely seen in cinema.

    The Mitchells vs. The Machines
    Lacking a precise balance of amiable entertainment and intense thrills, the director and producers fail to rein in violent fantasies that spoil what could’ve been a heartfelt and clever romp exploring family dysfunction.

    Chaos Walking
    While Chaos Walking has its faults, it is very much of ilk with YA novel adaptations such as Maze Runner and Divergent, while perhaps lacking the immersive depth of The Hunger Games, or at least the first couple entries of that series. Thankfully, its two charismatic leads share just enough chemistry to add the requisite stakes for a decently thrilling ride.
