Reviews
Focused, long-form reviews.
Thoroughbreds [2017]
A satire that elevates the genre rather than falling instep with other, forgettable affairs.
Super Dark Times [2017]
More to say than it shows you initially, check this out then check it out again.
Nope [2022]
Another Peele. What more is there to say?
Mandy [2018]
A visual treat, Mandy either will or won’t be your cup of tea.
Tales From the Loop [2020]
A wonderful sci-fi TV show that is not to be missed.
Elvis [2022]
A great ride that will be remembered by fans for a long time to come.
Prey [2022]
Decent, but still better than anything that’s come before it; Prey makes a meal of its runtime.
Daniel Isn’t Real [2019]
Sometimes excellent parts just don’t make an excellent whole.
Lapsis [2020]
This mostly excellent scifi-satire showcases a rising talent that just needs a little guidance.
Prehistoric Planet [2022]
While dinosaurs are cool… this won’t tell you much more than that.
Hatching [2022]
A tough shell to crack with not much inside.
Watcher [2022]
A lot to say, Watcher forgets to take off before it runs out of tarmac.
Border [2018]
A very unique take on the “finding yourself” narrative and one definitely worth your time.
The Sea Beast [2022]
Incredible potential leaves this one adrift and forgotten.
The Black Phone [2022]
The most shocking part of this thriller are its high review scores.
Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness [2022]
An excellent and tasteful outing for Marvel that I hope marks a fresh take on the formula.
CODA [2021]
Almost exquisite, CODA forgets that not all stories have to be told in the most boring way possible.
The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent [2022]
Someone forgot to let Cage out of the cage…
Top Gun: Maverick [2022]
As fun as it is stupid, this is still worth checking out.
The Rental [2020]
A great entry into the home-invasion genre, you should double check your locks before starting this.
