Amsterdam
Robbie is incredibly talented and so strikingly beautiful that she dominates every scene she is in, even to the point of eclipsing the equally talented and beautiful, Taylor-Joy,
Hellraiser
The story of Hellraiser is interesting if not completely fully formed, while the production value and effects are stunning even in the most gruesome ways.
Smile
Smile offers every horror fan something, whether it is the supernatural elements, the gore and blood, the jump scares or the psychological thriller aspects.
Hocus Pocus 2
Midler, Parker, and Najimy have a chemistry that helps make their characters feel authentic.
The Woman King
Prince-Bythewood offers audiences some interesting visuals and manages to make the fight scenes bloody and savage while not overselling the violence.
Clerks III
Clerks III brings Smith’s trilogy full circle, even though he has written, produced, and directed other movies in between.
Pinocchio
Several scenes stand out including when Pinocchio and Geppetto are trapped inside the whale, and when Pinocchio is in Pleasure Island.
