The Holdovers is patient, but not slow. It's funny but doesn't go for the easy gag. It's heartbreaking, but not overly sentimental.

Self Reliance is flat-out entertaining. It has been a while since I have watched a film that creates an ideal balance of not having to think too much and keeping you guessing along the way.

Insanity. That's the word that kept popping into my head while watching NYAD.

It's hard to rip into this movie too hard because there is so much '80s cheesiness to love about it.

There’s a fine line between complacency and passion, and Chaperone is a film that captures the confusion of early adulthood perfectly.

How is it possible that a movie gets better and better each time I watch it when it is so purposely repeatable in its premise?

I loved Knocked Up when it was initially released and I had always held it as one of my favorites of Apatow, but I was surprised by my reaction this time around.

Though I was entertained by this version of Mean Girls, there was an overall flatness.

What I enjoyed most about Maestro is that you feel every bit of passion from Cooper's performance, camera movements and style.

An amazing ensemble of actors can elevate a film's material and that is what this group does for The Best Man.

The Color Purple is filled with amazing performances, breathtaking shots and wonderful music, but there is something just a little off-kilter that keeps it from being one of the best modern musicals.

I prefer the darker side of Roald Dahl's creation, but if you can erase any prior knowledge of the story, you'll find Wonka funny, enjoyable and sometimes magical.

I haven't ever watched Euphoria, but if this is what kids are into these days, I want nothing of it. Saltburn has to be one of the most divisive and perverse movies to come out of 2023.

The action scenes in Get Smart are way better than they needed to be and the jokes are right down my lane.

There are a lot of nonsensical things that happen in Anyone But You, even by rom-com standards, but that didn't keep me from having a good time.

May December is secretly one of the most scathing movie about movies ever. I didn't quite know how to feel about the film once it was finished, but I couldn't stop thinking about it the next day.

The biggest question that I had after watching this film: Did Rose recognize her mom when she watched, “The One After the Superbowl?”

Family Switch feels a bit rushed because there are moments that really work and others that don't at all.

I never thought I would love watching the various ways a man could dispose of trash.

It's no wonder that Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret. is a beloved Judy Blume novel. This story has to be one of the most realistic portrayals of adolescence that I have seen.
