My review of #Eddington: "Director Ari Aster swings for the fences in 'Eddington,' and even if he doesn’t score a home run in recreating the chaos of the early pandemic, the film is as provocative as it is unsettlingly entertaining." Read the whole review here:

My review of #Smurfs: "'Smurf’s' scattershot hodgepodge of music, gentle mayhem, intergenerational humour and good messages may leave you feeling blue, just not in the way the filmmakers intended." Read the whole review here:

My review for #IKnowWhatYouDidLastSummer2025: "'I Know What You Did Last Summer’s' mid-credit scene is a rarity. In two or three minutes it sets the movie up for a sequel and is more entertaining than the movie that came before it." Read the whole review here:

My review of #Superman: "It would be easy to be cynical about a movie that wears its heart on its sleeve as loudly and proudly as Superman does, but it’s emphasis on optimism over angst is a timely and welcome message filtered through the nostalgic lens of a vintage comic book."

My review of #Sovereign: "A tragic portrait of radicalization and manipulation, “Sovereign” is a slow burn featuring chilling performances from Nick Offerman and Jacob Tremblay in an unsettling story of extremism." Read the review here:

My review of #ApocalypseInTheTropics: "Apocalypse in the Tropics” suffers from dodgy dubbing from Portuguese to English, but its specific story of Brazil’s recent political past becomes a chilling, cautionary tale of democracy vs. theocracy." Read the review here:
