Solo: A Star Wars Story (2018) 69% EDIT “The movie's real hero...is Howard. He managed to bring a fun, if slightly scuffed up, joyride into theaters - against the odds.” – New York Daily News May 15, 2018 Full Review Pacific Rim Uprising (2018) 42% 3/5 EDIT “DeKnight shows he can pilot a CGI fight sequence as well as his predecessor, Guillermo Del Toro ("The Shape of Water"). These movies can be fun once the colossal foes start grappling.” – New York Daily News Mar 20, 2018 Full Review The 15:17 to Paris (2018) 24% 2.5/5 EDIT “Eastwood faced similar issues with his last film, "Sully," and he still hasn't figured out how to take a relatively short dramatic event and build a movie around it.” – New York Daily News Feb 8, 2018 Full Review 12 Strong (2018) 50% 3.5/5 EDIT “Thor has been promoted to Captain America.” – New York Daily News Jan 17, 2018 Full Review The Post (2017) 88% EDIT “Unfortunately, The Post feels very much like the period drama it is - a throwback to the days of sideburns and lead type slugs - and not the exclamation point director Steven Spielberg intended.” – RealClearLife Dec 21, 2017 Full Review Downsizing (2017) 47% 3/5 EDIT “In a multiplex full of sequels and retreads "Downsizing" does stand out. Much of Payne's political satire does hit the mark and hit it well.” – New York Daily News Dec 21, 2017 Full Review All the Money in the World (2017) 79% 3.5/5 EDIT “Plummer's scenes with co-star Michelle Williams -- delivering another strong, understated performance -- are worth the price of admission. But the rest of the film is not as worthy.” – New York Daily News Dec 19, 2017 Full Review Professor Marston & the Wonder Women (2017) 87% EDIT “The drama also shows that Wonder Woman has come a long way, baby. Gone is her whole weakness to submission, being rendered harmless every time a man tied her up.” – RealClearLife Dec 19, 2017 Full Review Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle (2017) 77% 2.5/5 EDIT “With its video game upgrade, "Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle" manages to match the silly fun of its predecessor - even without Williams - and that's no small achievement unlocked.” – New York Daily News Dec 18, 2017 Full Review Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017) 91% 4.5/5 EDIT “That's not to say Star Wars: The Last Jedi will go down in history as a better movie than the franchise's gold standard, The Empire Strikes Back, but director Rian Johnson has pulled off a complete rejuvenation of the saga.” – New York Daily News Dec 12, 2017 Full Review The Shape of Water (2017) 92% 4/5 EDIT “Under all that rubber and slime, 6-foot-4 actor Jones continues to impress as the go-to monster for Del Toro and the rest of Hollywood. He's as synonymous with practical effects as Andy Serkis is with performance capture.” – New York Daily News Nov 28, 2017 Full Review Justice League (2017) 39% 3/5 EDIT “It's up to Wonder Woman again to save the day. And Gadot's Amazon warrior does just that in every scene she steals as the conscience and muscle of the group.” – New York Daily News Nov 15, 2017 Full Review The Foreigner (2017) 66% 3/5 EDIT “Campbell has never had as physically talented a lead as he has with Chan, who's peerless at performing choreographed fight sequences.” – New York Daily News Oct 12, 2017 Full Review Blade Runner 2049 (2017) 88% 4.5/5 EDIT “For a bleak dystopian future, it sure is a beautiful place to visit.” – New York Daily News Oct 3, 2017 Full Review Kingsman: The Golden Circle (2017) 51% 1.5/5 EDIT “Overkill is the order of the day - and it takes a toll.” – New York Daily News Sep 19, 2017 Full Review It (2017) 85% 3.5/5 EDIT “They've finally stopped clowning around with a Stephen King adaptation.” – New York Daily News Sep 6, 2017 Full Review Rogue One: A Star Wars Story (2016) 84% 5/5 EDIT “It stands alone as the best Star Wars entry since 1980's The Empire Strikes Back. Yes, it's that good.” – New York Daily News Dec 13, 2016 Full Review The Monster (2016) 81% 3/5 EDIT “There's little originality scared up by "The Monster," but that doesn't make director Bryan Bertino's horror flick easier to watch through the gaps in your fingers.” – New York Daily News Nov 9, 2016 Full Review By Sidney Lumet (2015) 83% 3/5 EDIT “Over its one hour and 43-minute running time, the doc rewards true film nerds plenty of nuggets.” – New York Daily News Oct 26, 2016 Full Review For the Love of Spock (2016) 100% 4/5 EDIT “Gives fans an unprecedented glimpse of the thinking that went between the iconic prosthetic ears.” – New York Daily News Sep 9, 2016 Full Review War Dogs (2016) 62% 3.5/5 EDIT “Phillips leans heavily into the absurdist humor of how the Pentagon could have been conned - especially by a pair of bros whose previous claim to fame was getting busted buying pot as Yeshiva middle schoolers.” – New York Daily News Aug 16, 2016 Full Review Breaking a Monster (2015) 100% 4/5 EDIT “"Breaking a Monster" is as much about adolescents having to leave behind childhood friendships to embrace life on the road as it is footage of performances at Coachella and South by Southwest.” – New York Daily News Jun 21, 2016 Full Review The Phenom (2016) 78% 3.5/5 EDIT “If there's an MVP, it's Simmons. The Perks of Being a Wallflower alum tosses off another subdued performance, a good counterpart to Hawke's more over-the-top coiled rage.” – New York Daily News Jun 20, 2016 Full Review Finding Dory (2016) 94% 4/5 EDIT “There will be enough tears to fill a small inflatable pool, if not an ocean.” – New York Daily News Jun 10, 2016 Full Review Warcraft (2016) 29% 1.5/5 EDIT “This is not "Lord of the Rings." It's barely "Dungeons & Dragons."” – New York Daily News Jun 6, 2016 Full Review
