    Captain America: Civil War
    The undeniable fun of Civil War's action scenes only exacerbates the failure of the narrative to adequately contend with its own themes.

    The Huntsman: Winter's War
    The overriding despair of Winter's War's imagery calls into question who, exactly, the film is for.

    Creed
    One of the Ryan Coogler film's greatest traits is its reticence, its refusal to say 10 words when two will do, or to say one word when silence says it all.

    The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 2
    It careens from carnage to group therapy so wildly that the action never gets to build and the conversations just repeat themselves.
