| 65 32% | Love Lies Bleeding (2024) - Rated 15 Apr 2024
"Genuinely stumped by this movie, which is not necessarily a bad thing. As a campy revenge thriller, it's kinda genius. It's never boring to watch skeezy, variously mulleted lowlifes as they fight and fuck themselves into bigger and bigger trouble. But messes are, well, messy. O'Brian gives a sympathetic performance that's at odds with the movie's plan for her as a grimdark She-Hulk. The constant switching between stations keeps the audience guessing, for better and for worse."

| 82 82% | Civil War (2024) - Rated 15 Apr 2024
"A searing indictment of American exceptionalism and—more importantly—of the self-inflicted wounds of tribalism. Like all good war films, it’s about the lives affected by conflict."

| 41 10% | Deal of the Century (1983) - Rated 15 Apr 2024
"A fuzzy satire of hawkish Reaganites that never really settles into its tone, purpose, or sense of humor…but dammit I needed to see Gregory Hines torch a car with a flamethrower."

| 76 65% | Girls State (2024) - Rated 15 Apr 2024 |
| 76 65% | Code 46 (2003) - Rated 07 Apr 2024
"A heartbreaking sci-fi parable. The final sucker punch—a timeless lesson in inequality—is impressively choreographed."

| 58 21% | Starman (1984) - Rated 07 Apr 2024
"John Carpenter visits Spielberg Country. It’s an awkward fit that leans on platitudes and begs comparison to superior emotional extraterrestrial dramas. But it’s boosted by a feisty Karen Allen and a wonderfully weird Jeff Bridges, whose performance earned one of the cooler Oscar nominations of this era."

| 48 14% | Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom (2023) - Rated 01 Apr 2024
"Knew this wouldn't be as fun as the first one when it started with a dad montage."
|
| 70 46% | Professor Marston & the Wonder Women (2017) - Rated 01 Apr 2024
"Biopic tropes and shortcuts are less frustrating when the subject matter is fresh and intriguing. (And, let's face it, titillating and voyeuristic.) Strong performances carry this one as it gradually shies away from its questions about psychological agency and manipulation, and toward a more straightforward human rights agenda."

| 71 49% | Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire (2024) - Rated 29 Mar 2024
"Kong: lonely, resourceful, wily, emotive, principled, cantankerous, nurturing, can communicate with other primates including humans Godzilla: a big, fat, pissed-off lizard that screams a lot Sensible to make this a Kong movie based on the characterizations. And with GODZILLA MINUS ONE not far in memory, it's nice to balance the scales with this kind of dumb, low stakes smashy-smashy fun."
