Where the Wild Things Are (2009) 73% B+ EDIT “Spike Jonze's film adaptation of Sendak's beloved 1963 picture book, Where the Wild Things Are, evokes that state of being, of creative and destructive feelings undiluted and sometimes unchecked.” – Columbus Alive Aug 23, 2017 Full Review The Revenant (2015) 78% 3/4 EDIT “As every step of Glass' journey is laid out in painstaking detail, where it is leading is rarely in doubt, and how long it takes to get there makes this a feat of endurance for both the participants and the audience.” – Columbus Alive Aug 23, 2017 Full Review Zootopia (2016) 98% 3/4 EDIT “[A] colorful, nicely crafted, perfectly voice-cast animated feature.” – Columbus Alive Dec 30, 2016 Full Review The Witch (2015) 91% 3.5/4 EDIT “A slow-burn pace helps ratchet up the dread, along with the work of cinematographer Jarin Blaschke, who casts the action in cold, gray, unforgiving light. And an exceptional cast makes it all resonate.” – Columbus Alive Dec 30, 2016 Full Review Hail, Caesar! (2016) 86% 3/4 EDIT “If you're among the Coen brothers' faithful, you'll find much to admire and gags that hit like a ton of bricks, though you'll probably wish there were more of them.” – Columbus Alive Dec 30, 2016 Full Review The Hurt Locker (2008) 96% A EDIT “The Hurt Locker succeeds where others haven't, putting you in the boots of highly trained Army personnel. And since they're experts at defusing bombs, it's understandable if you shake in them.” – Columbus Alive Feb 25, 2015 Full Review
