The Nun II
Director Michael Chaves (The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do it) starts the film with plenty of energy and continues the pacing throughout the duration of the movie.
The Marvels
Despite impressive stunt choreography in 'The Marvels', the film grapples with significant shortcomings that stunt work alone cannot overshadow.
Priscilla
Regardless of whether or not this biopic is accurate, it was uncomfortable to watch on several different levels which only adds to the annoyingly slow pace of Priscilla.
The Muppets Take Manhattan
The Muppets Take Manhattan marked Frank Oz's solo directorial debut and he did a wonderful job.
Godzilla (1998) 25th Anniversary 4K Ultra HD SteelBook
The 1998 Godzilla may be less beloved for its lighter tone and special effects, but it offers entertainment if you approach it with an open mind.
Killers of The Flower Moon
If you settle in and don't give up after the first hour, Killers of the Flower Moon will be worth it in the end as it is a brilliant piece of filmmaking.
The Way We Were
Casting Streisand and Redford was brilliant as they are clearly on opposite ends of the spectrum but have an obvious onscreen chemistry that makes the movie work.
