      Absolute Power (1997) Chris Hewitt "Absolute Power" is appealingly untrendy: no car chases, no explosions, no nubile strippers. There isn't even a single character in the movie under 30.

      Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker (2019) Ross Raihala There's no way it could please every fan and it most certainly will not. But I think Abrams did the best he could with a seemingly insurmountable task.

      Charlie's Angels (2019) Ross Raihala This is a movie that opens with the line "I think women can do anything" and spends the next two hours proving it.

      Scandalous: The Untold Story of the National Enquirer (2019) Ross Raihala It's well made and entertaining, but it's also a celebration of unethical journalism that feels shallow in the end.

      Joker (2019) Ross Raihala The social commentary of "Joker" is laughably one-dimensional and Phoenix's Fleck isn't that scary. Really, he's more sad than anything.

      Shazam! (2019) Ross Raihala While the humor is definitely broad, "Shazam!" still offers some terrific laughs. Most of the time, it's bright and fun and good-natured.

      Tag (2018) Maren Longbella The situations in which they find themselves are often crazy hilarious - if you like cartoonish, slapstick violence a la the Three Stooges. Generally, I'm not a fan, but there's a good-natured quality that elevates it all to the level of hijinks.
