Dawn of the Planet of the Apes (2014) 91% A- EDIT “Positive, nuanced, and brilliant.” – InSession Film Jul 25, 2024 Full Review F9 The Fast Saga (2021) 59% B+ EDIT “As a theatre-going experience, I can’t recommend F9: The Fast Saga enough.” – InSession Film Feb 13, 2023 Full Review Jungle Cruise (2021) 62% C EDIT “A family adventure through familiar, albeit shallow, waters.” – InSession Film Feb 13, 2023 Full Review The Suicide Squad (2021) 90% A- EDIT “The Suicide Squad isn’t a subtle film, in its violence, or its themes. There is a lot to unpack with this film regarding the American prison system, American Interventionalism, and what it means to keep the peace.” – InSession Film Feb 13, 2023 Full Review 10 Things I Hate About You (1999) 72% A- EDIT “This is the magic behind The 10 Things I Hate About You. It dives deep into the emotion that was lost in translation for many in Shakespeares’ writing and using every cinematic tool at its disposal to pull you deeper into that emotion.” – InSession Film Feb 13, 2023 Full Review Eternals (2021) 47% C+ EDIT “As a whole, it’s somewhere in the middle; and I hope it’s not the last time Marvel allows a prestigious director to take a shot in the MCU and give a bold take on the formula, flaws and all.” – InSession Film Feb 13, 2023 Full Review Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings (2021) 92% EDIT “All in all, it’s one of the best Marvel flicks of the past decade, and easily one of the best films of the year.” – InSession Film Feb 10, 2023 Full Review Malignant (2021) 77% EDIT “Malignant is easily the most fun I had at a movie theater this past year.” – InSession Film Feb 10, 2023 Full Review Tick, Tick... Boom! (2021) 88% EDIT “Thanks to Garfield’s eccentric performance, tick, tick… BOOM is a film worth remembering. It may feel like doomsday, but that’s when you need to soldier on. It’s on Netflix and is worth a watch.” – InSession Film Feb 10, 2023 Full Review No Time to Die (2021) 83% EDIT “Add in a stellar performance from Daniel Craig, gorgeous cinematography from Director of Photography Linus Sandgren, and great direction from Cory Joji Fukunaga, and it’s one of the year’s best and an all-time Bond film.” – InSession Film Feb 10, 2023 Full Review Encanto (2021) 92% EDIT “To cap it all off, the story by Jared Bush, Bryon Howard, and Charise Castro Smith focuses on empathy perfectly. It’s a wonderful watch for the whole family.” – InSession Film Feb 10, 2023 Full Review The Matrix Resurrections (2021) 63% EDIT “I especially love the costuming in the film. This isn’t a standard legacy-quel, and it’s all the better because of that. ” – InSession Film Feb 10, 2023 Full Review Dune (2021) 83% EDIT “Dune is a true masterpiece. I can’t wait to see how this duology ends, and if Denis Villeneuve sticks the landing, this may be the best science fiction movie of all time. ” – InSession Film Feb 10, 2023 Full Review CODA (2021) 94% EDIT “With one of the most clever scripts of the year, CODA made me feel a lot of feelings.” – InSession Film Feb 10, 2023 Full Review The Green Knight (2021) 89% EDIT “It’s got one of the best 4K releases of the year, which enhances the gorgeous cinematography, the rich sound design, and the ethereal score that permeates the film. ” – InSession Film Feb 10, 2023 Full Review The Woman King (2022) 94% A- EDIT “As these women take their place in the kingdom of Dahomey and assert their power, The Woman King truly takes on new meaning, and finds relevance in the modern era.” – InSession Film Feb 10, 2023 Full Review Prey (2022) 94% A+ EDIT “I loved Prey. I think it’s the best summer “blockbuster” of the year.” – InSession Film Feb 10, 2023 Full Review The Black Phone (2021) 81% B- EDIT “It’s a B-movie abduction flick centered in the 80s that values simplicity over complexity. And ultimately, The Black Phone is a theatrical experience that is sure to get your blood pumping.” – InSession Film Feb 10, 2023 Full Review Top Gun: Maverick (2022) 96% A- EDIT “All of these elements come together to form one of the biggest third acts in recent cinema. ” – InSession Film Feb 10, 2023 Full Review Everything Everywhere All at Once (2022) 93% A EDIT “Everything Everywhere All At Once is a marvelous achievement in filmmaking. The Daniels have created one of the best films of the year, and it is sure to inspire the next generation of filmmakers.” – InSession Film Feb 10, 2023 Full Review The Mitchells vs. the Machines (2021) 97% EDIT “Director Michael Rianda and producers Lord and Miller have produced the best example of why “the medium is the message”.” – InSession Film Feb 10, 2023 Full Review Pearl (2022) 93% B EDIT “Pearl is a masterclass of horror filmmaking with a powerful ending, but it relies on a familiarity with the franchise that holds it back.” – InSession Film Feb 10, 2023 Full Review Puss in Boots: The Last Wish (2022) 95% B+ EDIT “Puss in Boots: The Last Wish is an 11 year sequel with something to prove, and while its meta-textual elements don’t quite reach the highs of Shrek 2, it’s a work of art you must see this holiday season. ” – InSession Film Feb 10, 2023 Full Review Plane (2023) 78% C+ EDIT “Plane is a film that is an experience to behold in cinemas, and an entertaining one at that. ” – InSession Film Feb 10, 2023 Full Review Scream (1996) 78% EDIT “That is the genius of Scream. It’s a film that keeps the suspense and terror associated with other slashers, while obliterating the misogynistic rules of those films. It’s meticulously crafted, and after all these years, it’s still a masterpiece. ” – InSession Film Feb 10, 2023 Full Review
