2002 movie reviews
  1. Freaky Tales may not be a perfect film, but it will definitely leave a strong impression on you long after the credits roll.
  2. Power Ballad continues Carney's long run of success with yet another charmer. Of course, it's easy to charm when you have Paul Rudd as your center.
  3. It's certainly a good family-friendly movie for viewers young and old, but those who have enjoyed Disney Animation's offerings in recent years will find plenty to enjoy. With richly detailed animation, exciting action and a compelling story about trust, Raya and the Last Dragon has all the makings of a modern Disney classic.
  4. Writer-director Lee Cronin holds onto the essential mythology while bringing in elements from a host of other influences, including the Evil Dead series, The Exorcist, and Hereditary, to try and shake up what mummies can be on screen. Discovering the true nature of this film's mummy, and what it's capable of, is part of the fun. The result isn't quite a 28 Days Later moment – one way to understand the film's full title is that this feels like one filmmaker's interpretation of a classic monster, rather than a new template for others to follow – but it's definitely the scariest a mummy movie has been in years.
  5. Though it's more of a reboot than a sequel, 28 Years Later pays homage to the original film without sacrificing its originality & fresh spirit.
  6. An obvious inspiration pulled from experiencing losing his wife Carolyn to cancer, Cronenberg delivers a subdued horror film on grief, which feels unlike any of his previous works.
  7. The filmmaking of Lucy and Desi will not blow anyone away, but the heart will take audiences on an emotional rollercoaster fans of the couple won't soon forget.
  8. While the movie excels in family dynamics and character development, the visual effects and portrayal of the Kord family as villains fall short. Nonetheless, Blue Beetle is a charming depiction of functional family bonds and a promising introduction to a live-action DC superhero.
  9. It’s less challenging and possibly less rewarding but it’s no less fun.
  10. With good pacing, writing, and a stellar cast, Barker has crafted a directorial horror debut that is deliciously dark, absurd, and eerie.
  11. Ray still overcomes adversity, but writers Rick Santora and Randy McKinnon sidestep the stereotypes that so often plague sports films to do so, making it one of the better sports films to be released in some time.
  12. It’s a mind-bending visual odyssey wrapped around a grounded, relatable human story.
  13. The Devil Wears Prada 2 is a well-constructed sequel that finds a healthy balance between nostalgia and forward momentum. It might not be as richly compelling as the first film, but there's still a lot to enjoy – especially when it turns inward.
  14. As a character study, Blue Moon is imperfect, but its smart framing of a pivotal moment in Hart's life elevates it.
  15. Baker's familiarity with the area gives Janet Planet a distinct sense of place and Baker an assured way with the camera, but there's also a universality to it and to the film's central pair that helps it transcend to something even more affecting.
  16. Killer Heat delivers something new and refreshing that deserves to stand out for its creativity and clever storytelling.
  17. It's a fun and intriguing ride that, though it leads to an ending that one might guess is coming, has great energy. Clemons is a charismatic lead who delves fully into her role. When all the puzzle pieces finally come together, the film fires on all cylinders and makes for a magnetic watch.
  18. The cast deserves real credit for that, Biscayart especially. His physical expressiveness is truly extraordinary, and without his performance to transition us to the final act, Kill the Jockey doesn't succeed.

    Devotion soars when least expected and is brought to life by its talented ensemble cast.
  19. Every moment is purposeful, every conversation sharp; the actors and the direction say more than what is on the surface.
  20. The cast's chemistry really sells what transpires here and without that, it's hard to see the film working. Luckily, Brooklyn 45's disparate pieces come together to make for a wholly unique film that feels rare to come across these days.
  21. Featuring everything from handmade pasta to beautifully rolled cannolis and even the unique delicacy of capuzzelle, I could practically smell the kitchen through the screen, and it certainly kept me hooked on hanging out with the movie's charming cast.
  22. Filled with heartfelt moments and hardships amidst Grace’s growing young adulthood pains, Levack’s film plays like a new music album that is familiar yet exciting.
  23. It’s a lovely, heartfelt movie that is also gritty and deep and evocative, with outstanding performances that ground the story in every possible way.
  24. That familiar question of “am I a good person?” will linger with viewers just as it does the characters, making it a fascinating watching experience as much as it is a good time.
  25. The Boston Strangler case may not have come to the fairest conclusion, but the efforts of these brave women will hopefully continue to light a fire under those who will catch their own Boston Strangler. If that was Ruskin’s goal with this film, then he was successful.
  26. While body and survival horror fans might not find anything particularly groundbreaking here, and while the toxic masculinity plot is thinly veiled by the bloodthirsty wolves thread, the movie accomplishes what it sets out to do. Ultimately, the bones of the story have been licked clean of any excess, making for a film that will successfully holds our attention in its jaws.
  27. The only glaring flaw in Alone With You is its rushed final moments and ending, but it is not discordant enough to mar the genuinely uncomfortable scares and taut suspense it generates throughout.
  28. The film presents a bold vision of what movies can and should be and, ultimately, it's a more exhilarating experience to watch a movie of this scale take risks and fall short than it is to see a blockbuster play it safe and deliver mediocre results.
  29. Elevated by phenomenal performances from its cast, the film tackles a difficult subject with thoughtful sensitivity, levity, and spirited discussion that will leave audiences thinking about the film and its central premise for a long time after it's over.
