The Suicide Squad
The Suicide Squad misses the mark almost from the very beginning as it makes its descent into the bowels of filmmaking.
Stillwater
Damon is decent as Bill and Cottin does a good job making Virginie interesting, but the two actors have zero chemistry making their "relationship" completely unbelievable.
Jungle Cruise
Jungle Cruise could have been hit or miss but thankfully, Disney did it right and the result is and fun, summer film.
Joe Bell
Wahlberg has had some strong characters in the past but, unfortunately, this isn’t one of them.
The Tomorrow War
J.K. Simmons (Spider-Man) has some great dialogue as Dan's estranged father, and he delivers his lines expertly.
F9
If the television show Happy Days “jumped the shark” and Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull “nuked the fridge”, then The Fast and Furious Franchise has definitely “launched the Fiero”.
