Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore
Law reprises his role as the adult wizard long before he became the head of Hogwarts, and he does a masterful job of portraying the serious individual who occasionally throws some levity into the mix.
The Lost City
If you know in advance what you are getting yourself into and you don’t expect too much, The Lost City is a fun way to spend a few hours.
X
West sets out to make a bloody, heart pounding horror movie with X, and, for the most part, succeeds beautifully.
Deep Water
Watching Deep Water is equivalent to driving past a bad car accident. You don't want to look but you simply can’t turn away.
The Adam Project
On the surface, The Adam Project is simply a sci-fi thriller with a strong cast, but underneath the top layer, there are other messages about grief, deception, and bullying.
Turning Red
Chiang gives Mei a cheery attitude that jumps out of the speakers and draws the viewer in.
The Batman
Direction and Pattinson’s interpretation make this Batman movie one that will appeal to the masses.
