"This was the most fun I’d had at the movies… maybe all year."

"The likeable characters and exciting action sequences make 'Top Gun: Maverick' the epitome of a crowd-pleasing summer blockbuster."

"I wasn’t sure if 'Downton Abbey: A New Era' would work, and my doubts have been proven unfounded."

"It's hard to think of anything positive to say about Firestarter, from the acting to the script to the action to the movie’s need to exist."

"For a movie whose very title tells us to be prepared for anything, it can never quite deliver the right amount of chaos."

It's not hard to see where this movie draws its inspiration. Subverting fairy tales, that’s “Shrek.”

Unlike the 8-movie “Harry Potter” series, the “Fantastic Beasts” sector of J.K. Rowling’s Wizarding World has never been able to quite get off the ground.

"Jim Carrey is in tip-top comedic form (I hope he’s not serious about retiring from acting) and all the characters are likeable in one way or another."

"Clearly someone wanted to dump this movie on just the right unremarkable weekend where it would be free of decent competition."

'I was all ready to embrace this movie because theaters haven’t had a potential blockbuster since “The Batman” three weeks ago, but this is not a blockbuster of an effort.'

"I found myself really getting invested in the culture of 'Jujutsu Kaisen.' It doesn’t hurt that the creative curse/creature designs are incredible."

"I have never seen a Pixar movie I didn’t like, and the “Red”-hot streak continues here."

"Maybe it’s because I love the Batman universe so much that every misstep in this movie seems so glaring. And for some reason, Batman takes a lot of steps in this movie."

"I’m no dog person, and I strongly disapprove of some of Briggs’ choices throughout the journey, but I was surprised by how much I liked this movie overall."

"The film is based on a video game, and I’m sure the action works better in that setting."

Legendary Belgian detective Hercule Poirot is back ... and so is his ridiculous mustache.

"It should be noted that many scenes in this movie involve the area… below the belt."

"This movie is worth seeking out, even though it probably won’t be at the top of your local theater’s marquee"

“Redeeming Love” is a cross between a Christian movie, a mushy romance, and a demented exploitation film.

"This is a worthy successor to the 1996 film, which is more than I can say for the three preceding sequels."

"I dare someone to give us a sequel after how bad this movie is and how badly it has performed."

This week Bob Garver reviews the films "Matrix Resurrections", "The King’s Man", and "American Underdog."

This is a movie for families with kids too young to see “Spider-Man: No Way Home” and that have already seen “Encanto.”

"Spider-Man: No Way Home isn’t quite the best movie of the year, but it’s likely to be the best time you’ll have at the movies all year."
