It never quite reaches its ambitious heights. It wants to be something, but it's kinda just a cheesy B-genre movie. January 25, 2020 | Full Review…

For a film named after an iconic folk hero, John Henry is both uninspired and uninspiring, a mixed bag and missed opportunity that's as confounding as it is infuriating. January 31, 2020 | Rating: 1/5 | Full Review…
