Onward (2020) 88% B EDIT “The world-building is where the movie shines the brightest.” – Star-Democrat (Easton, MD) Mar 6, 2020 Full Review The Invisible Man (2020) 92% A EDIT “... This version feels urgent, necessary even, in the #MeToo era.” – Star-Democrat (Easton, MD) Feb 28, 2020 Full Review Bad Boys for Life (2020) 76% B+ EDIT “Not just acknowledging but making its stars' age - Smith is 51, Lawrence 54 - a central point gives "Bad Boys for Life" a reason to exist beyond pure nostalgia.” – Star-Democrat (Easton, MD) Jan 15, 2020 Full Review 1917 (2019) 88% A EDIT “... Gripping to the point you almost forget about the gimmick that pulls it all together.” – Star-Democrat (Easton, MD) Jan 10, 2020 Full Review Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker (2019) 51% B EDIT “"The Rise of Skywalker" is one last look back, and while not triumphant, it is a satisfying end of an era.” – Star-Democrat (Easton, MD) Dec 18, 2019 Full Review Knives Out (2019) 97% A EDIT “A modern take on a classic brand of storytelling, "Knives Out" is incredibly well crafted and endlessly entertaining.” – Star-Democrat (Easton, MD) Nov 22, 2019 Full Review The Good Liar (2019) 64% A- EDIT “What treasures Helen Mirren and Ian McKellen are, and what a gift director Bill Condon has given us by pairing them up in "The Good Liar," a delightfully twisty tale.” – Star-Democrat (Easton, MD) Nov 15, 2019 Full Review Doctor Sleep (2019) 78% C- EDIT “Beholden to two sources, "Doctor Sleep" ultimately fails to satisfy either one.” – Star-Democrat (Easton, MD) Nov 8, 2019 Full Review Terminator: Dark Fate (2019) 70% B EDIT “... Gets enough right that it feels like it belongs in this franchise, which is a compliment and something you couldn't say about the three previous installments.” – Star-Democrat (Easton, MD) Nov 1, 2019 Full Review Gemini Man (2019) 27% D EDIT “Having the means to do something doesn't always mean it should be done.” – Star-Democrat (Easton, MD) Oct 11, 2019 Full Review Joker (2019) 68% A EDIT “"Joker" stays with the viewer, forcing you to consider it more carefully. The picture you'll get is dark - haunting, disturbing and all too real.” – Star-Democrat (Easton, MD) Oct 3, 2019 Full Review Abominable (2019) 83% C+ EDIT “... the Chinese setting of "Abominable" seems perfunctory at best, chosen only for its relative proximity to the Himalayas.” – Star-Democrat (Easton, MD) Sep 27, 2019 Full Review It: Chapter Two (2019) 62% B- EDIT “The casting is impeccable, and the characters' personalities are so well defined as this point, that ... it truly feels like a reunion of long-lost friends.” – Star-Democrat (Easton, MD) Sep 5, 2019 Full Review Ready or Not (2019) 89% A- EDIT “If you're into this sort of thing, the combination of suspense, gore and wicked comedy is riotously entertaining - a recipe destined to make "Ready or Not" a cult classic for years to come.” – Star-Democrat (Easton, MD) Aug 20, 2019 Full Review Good Boys (2019) 81% A- EDIT “Tremblay, Williams and Noon are terrific as the central trio, and it takes a confident director who knows exactly what he wants to get such performances out of actors this young.” – Star-Democrat (Easton, MD) Aug 15, 2019 Full Review The Kitchen (2019) 24% C EDIT “acked with enough murders, betrayals and more murders to fill several seasons of "The Sopranos," or at least a three-hour Martin Scorsese epic, "The Kitchen" feels a lot longer than its 102 minute running time.” – Star-Democrat (Easton, MD) Aug 7, 2019 Full Review Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw (2019) 67% B EDIT “If you buy into the characters - and at this point, audiences clearly have done that - you'll accept and expect action set pieces as ridiculously over the top as they are here.” – Star-Democrat (Easton, MD) Aug 1, 2019 Full Review The Farewell (2019) 97% A- EDIT “"The Farewell" drips with authenticity as it examines - and gives equal weight and respect to - the disparate traditions and values of its two colliding cultures.” – Star-Democrat (Easton, MD) Jul 25, 2019 Full Review The Lion King (2019) 52% A EDIT “"The Lion King" feels fresh and vibrant, alive and vital in 2019 in a way I would not have thought possible.” – Star-Democrat (Easton, MD) Jul 12, 2019 Full Review Stuber (2019) 43% C+ EDIT “The laughs mostly come from the heavy lifting of Kumail Nanjiani ...” – Star-Democrat (Easton, MD) Jul 11, 2019 Full Review Yesterday (2019) 63% B+ EDIT “The dramatic material is heavier than might be expected, but it works because Patel and James are such a winning pair.” – Star-Democrat (Easton, MD) Jun 28, 2019 Full Review Spider-Man: Far From Home (2019) 91% A EDIT “...The perfect palate cleanser after the monumental "Endgame."” – Star-Democrat (Easton, MD) Jun 27, 2019 Full Review Late Night (2019) 80% C- EDIT “... Everyone seems to be simply waiting for their turn to speak rather than engaging the material and their fellow performers.” – Star-Democrat (Easton, MD) Jun 13, 2019 Full Review Godzilla: King of the Monsters (2019) 42% C+ EDIT “... What begins as awe-inspiring spectacle becomes routine.” – Star-Democrat (Easton, MD) May 29, 2019 Full Review Booksmart (2019) 96% A EDIT “... One of the great coming-of-age comedies of its era.” – Star-Democrat (Easton, MD) May 24, 2019 Full Review
