    Fly Me to the Moon
    It seems to be about a lot of things — a kinder, gentler America, early feminism, truth in advertising, an impartial media. But above all, it’s a pleasant few hours at the movies with charismatic actors Scarlett Johansson and Channing Tatum.

    A Man of Reason
    At any rate, you’ll be entertained. What you won’t be is transported, and that’s kind of the goal.

    Horizon: An American Saga - Chapter 1
    Chapter 1 of this undertaking is imperfect, at times meandering and once or twice confusing, but it is never boring and never feels over-long. And it is spectacularly beautiful to look at.

    Thelma
    Thelma is really entertaining. The cast (which includes Malcolm McDowell) is very strong. The performance from Squibb, a 70-year vet of the industry and Oscar-nominated for her work in Nebraska, is fantastic, and Roundtree is likewise magnetic.

    Longing
    Whatever magic that writer/director Savi Gabizon brought to the original seems to have evaporated for this second go.

    Ezra
    For this viewer, always on high alert for emotional manipulation, Ezra is an engaging movie that works because of sharp writing and terrific performances.

    Limbo
    The film is an indictment of law enforcement as it operates (or doesn’t) for aboriginal people.

    Back to Black
    This is perhaps a kinder, gentler Amy Winehouse story? Maybe so, but there’s no opportunity for emotional investment, despite Marisa Abela’s wonderful performance. It’s all a bit like seeing a good cover band.

    We Grown Now
    This coming-of-age film captures the exuberance of childhood even as it shows the gradual encroachment of outside social pressures.

    The Fall Guy
    The Fall Guy is hugely entertaining. A love letter to stunt persons and to filmmaking in general, the film is a romantic comedy for everyone who hates romantic comedies and an action thriller for those less than keen on the genre.

    The Promised Land
    The Promised Land is visually splendid and utterly absorbing, a rags-to-riches/vengeance/love story packed with action and heartbreak.
