Perfect 17 Points 2018

An inspiring story about the legendary Ruth Bader Ginsberg (RBG). This should be required watching for anyone interested in civics and law and by anyone who wants to understand the passion for what is right.

Viking Destiny
OK 17 Points 2018

A feisty Nordic queen to be kicks as and is pleasant to look at in the process.

At Eternity's Gate
OK 66 Points 2018

Vincent van Gogh deserves a great biopic. At Eternity’s Gate isn’t it, not even close.

Frequent screen blackouts and repeated dialogue are just two flaws. At Eternity’s Gate has several more, including scenery that isn’t beautiful until Van Gogh makes it so. Yet its worst flaw is to waste …

Star Wars: The ...
Good 66 Points 2019

The Rise of Skywalker echoes past Star Wars, weakly if assiduously. It’s more a forced march through a hero’s journey than a rollicking adventure. Even its surprises don’t much surprise, being echoes of great surprises from previous episodes. Worse, the echoes also extend to the characters popu…

Avengers: Endgame
Really Great 66 Points 2019

Endgame doesn’t disappoint, surmounting both high expectations and a lengthy runtime. Marvelous!

Avengers assemble, with each of a dozen getting ten minutes on average to reintroduce themselves. After those two hours they spread out over time – literally over time – taking the movie to its t…

Cold Pursuit
Barely OK 66 Points 2019

Why do remakes suck? Well, not all remakes suck, but Hollywood remakes of foreign films usually do. Consider Cold Pursuit. Lacking the droll charm of its Norwegian original, it’s more ugly than enjoyable.

Let us count the mistakes vis-a-vis In Order of Disappearance….

Good 66 Points 2019

Everything is no longer awesome in Lego Movieland. That’s the upshot of The Lego Movie 2’s fall from grace, the grace of its two awesome antecedents. Phil Lord & Christopher Miller’s snappy pop culture allusions are still present, as is the terrific voice cast. But this time their confection fe…

Apollo 11
Perfect 66 Points 2019

Apollo 11 is an enormous cinematic accomplishment – an rFactor 1 documentary with the power, pulse and scale of big time SciFi. See it on the biggest screen possible, with the best sound system, IMAX optimally.

It revivifies the epochal year of 1969, the first and last time that billions of…

Captain Marvel
Great 83 Points 2019

So much fun! Captain Marvel is yet another marvelous Marvel movie. You can doubt investing political import in a superhero movie, but never doubt Marvel. The House that Stan Built launches three marvelous movies a year, been doing so for over ten years, ever since Robert Downey Jr. declared "…
