Dennis Quaid Shines in a Mediocre Reagan Retelling.

"With all due respect to the rest of the cast and crew, the movie is nothing without Lively’s performance."

"While not devoid of violence by any means, the film can’t properly pull off a thrilling or scary atmosphere to save its life."

With “Trap,” writer/director M. Night Shyamalan has given us a half-decent movie.

"Obviously this movie isn’t going to appeal to audiences that want their Marvel movies at the PG-13 level or tamer."

"You can probably guess the kind of experience that 'Twisters' provides."

"The gruesome horror movie Longlegs pulled something of an upset at this past weekend’s domestic box office."

"It didn’t send me into a days-long depression over the state of family entertainment like the original did, but it is quite possibly the worst since the first.'

'Not bad for a movie whose advertising had me thinking it would be one of the worst films of the year.'

The movie follows a Chicago biker gang called The Vandals from the mid-60’s to the early 70’s.

Of course, just as the “Inside Out” movies teach audiences to take the bad with the good, I must remember to take the good with the bad.

'Bad Boys: Ride or Die has enough heart to cover the missing brain.'

"I guess what I’m saying is that this movie, while it could have been worse, is lazy – and not in a way that’s on-brand for Garfield."

'My biggest complaint about writer/director/star John Krasinski’s new movie 'IF'… is that it’s a movie.'

The exciting conclusion is admittedly quite successful in making the audience forget what a slog the movie was beforehand.

"Creative, stunt-filled action and a delightfully witty romance."

Where 'Challengers' fell apart for me was the utter un-likeability of the three main characters.

"'Abigail' isn’t necessarily a great movie by itself, but it works well as something to hold over certain horror fans."

What if Texas and California were to secede from the United States and join forces to wage war against their former home country?

It’s such a shame that there’s so much to detract from what “Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire” does right.

"I couldn’t latch onto anything enjoyable about 'Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire.'"

Mark Wahlberg stars as Michael Light, the captain of a team of “adventure racers,” teams that participate in multi-day races of over 500 miles across various treacherous terrains.

"As an overall effort this movie may be just as complacent as Po is in the first act, but the 'Kung Fu Panda' franchise knows what brings audiences comfort."

"This film is likely to fare even better than its predecessor at next year’s Oscars, and is frankly the first 'must-see' film that I’ve seen in a long time."

Fans will probably find much of value here, but the film was never able to capture my interest in a way that even “Mugen Train” could.

"This is a bland, unoriginal horror movie with dull characters and even duller scares."

Bog Garver: "This movie is the unwelcome slog that I expected"

"I know that the MCU can produce hits for both the movies and home, but it needs to make better decisions about which properties should be which."
