Abigail
|
Once the threat is revealed, Abigail
mainly struggles to surprise.
|
The
Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare
|
Despite its obvious intentions, The Ministry
of Ungentlemanly Warfare isn't nearly as fun as the filmmakers believe it to
be.
|
Spy
x Family Code: White
|
It's fun and fast-paced, but the
real selling point is a central gimmick that's overtly familiar but given a few
layers of complication and humor.
|
|
Hard
Miles
|
Co-writer/director RJ Daniel Hanna's movie wears its
metaphors and parallels on its sleeve but never really gets at the human story
beneath them.
|
The
Three Musketeers: Part II – Milady
|
The Three Musketeers: Part II – Milady
brings this reconfigured adaptation of Alexandre Dumas' novel to a rousing and
unexpectedly dark conclusion.
|
Rebel
Moon: Part Two – The Scargiver
|
That
this installment opens with a 90-second recap of the events of the
previous movie feels as if co-writer/director Zack Snyder is just adding
insult to injury.
|
|
Sasquatch
Sunset
|
It mainly doesn't succeed, because the
material is inherently limited.
|
We
Grown Now
|
The film's narrative feels authentic and tunnels through a
scandalous piece of local history to find the humanity that has been buried
underneath it.
|
Blood
for Dust
|
The repetition of the tone, combined with the routine of the
plot, is little more than a matter of hollow style.
