This movie has two very distinct parts separated by a wedding night row, as Florence puts it. The first half of the film is a very stuffy, super British period piece that explores one of the most uninteresting, plain yogurt relationships imaginabl... Read the full review »

Beast (2018)

Beast (2018)

9 / 10
"Beast" reminds us of a much more intimate, much more British version of something like "Summer of Sam" or "The Hunt." It deals with similar themes and shows how fear and paranoia can bring out the worst in people... As the movie moves along, the... Read the full review »

What do you get when you combine summer-themed movies like "Adventure Land," "The To Do List," and "Hot Rod" with a sprinkling of "Jackass" stunts? You get a movie that feels like a half-assed version of any of the aforementioned titles, only the... Read the full review »

Adrift (2018)

Adrift (2018)

7 / 10
We very much enjoyed "Adrift." Shailene Woodley and Sam Claflin offer up very good performances and have some great on-screen chemistry that makes their relationship believable and allows the audience to root for them to persevere in the face of i... Read the full review »

The acting in this movie is good, though we weren't entirely convinced by the chemistry between McAdams and Weisz. Their performances are nuanced and quietly powerful at times. There is a lot about this movie that should be respected. That being s... Read the full review »

RBG (2018)

RBG (2018)

9 / 10
We were tremendously moved by the well-made, comprehensive "RBG." Ginsburg is a source of great inspiration for women and all people who know that just because life has always been one way doesn't mean it's the way things should be. In an era of e... Read the full review »

"The Kissing Booth" is yet another Netflix original movie. It's a formulaic teen romance meant to make girls ages 12 to 17 "oooooh" and "awwwww" over all the sexy musclebound guys and swoon at the thought of an unpopular girl having a forbidden ro... Read the full review »

"Solo: A Star Wars Story" might not be the epic battle between fascism and freedom that has themed the other entries in the "Star Wars" franchise, but this movie is still a fun, enjoyable ride. It is worth checking out for those who are willing to... Read the full review »

The film takes such a cold intellectual approach towards the value of human life that it would make Ayn Rand proud. It's obvious that his ultimate goal is to create something supremely shocking, and though the score and some of the aspects of the... Read the full review »

"Cringe-worthy" is probably the best word we can use to accurately describe the comedy found in "Life of the Party." We cringed so hard and gritted our teeth so tightly and so frequently that we're lucky we didn't chip any teeth. We like Melissa M... Read the full review »

We can't say this film is anything new or original. Most coming-of-age flicks are formulaic, and "Measure of a Man" is no different. Still, we found ourselves enjoying this sweet movie about growing up and finding the courage to stand up for yours... Read the full review »

If you assumed this "movie" was going to be dumb, you will not be shocked to discover that it is unbelievably stupid. Words cannot describe how painful it was to watch "Show Dogs." Many of the jokes involve standard kid's movie fodder and is ripe... Read the full review »

It turns out baby boomers like to engage in sexual activities and want to have spicy love lives just like the rest of society! For the most part, "Book Club" is a by-the-numbers but still charming romance/friendship comedy. Each woman has their ow... Read the full review »

If you loved the original "Deadpool," you will most likely love this sequel. We get the same style of self-aware, fourth-wall-breaking, pop-culture-reference-infested humor here that we got in the original, but even more so this time around. This... Read the full review »

"I Feel Pretty" sets out to have a good body positive message for women, which is unfortunately lost somewhere along the way. It's a comedy that wants to say it is OK to be average sized, overweight, or average looking. Then, most of the humor rel... Read the full review »

It's a smart idea to create a situation where making any big sound can lead to your death. It's a good device to help build horror and tension. We saw this idea used to great effect in the 2016 film "Don't Breathe," and we see it used excellently... Read the full review »

Tully (2018)

Tully (2018)

8 / 10
This is a darkly comedic character sketch that tries to portray what it's like to be a mother in the modern age. Make no mistake about it, "Tully" does not show the typical sugarcoated Hollywood version of what it means to be a mother, the ones wh... Read the full review »

By the end of the film, we sat with our mouths agape with what had just transpired. We were shooketh, to say the least. We can't mention specifics because we want to avoid spoilers, but let's just say it certainly lived up to the hype. This instal... Read the full review »
