Palmer
Palmer can be somewhat predictable, but this cast gives it something more that makes it worth watching and makes the viewer wish it was longer.

The Little Things
While Hancock’s script ends with a few plot twists, it simply is choppy and laden with subplots that are left unformed.
Saint Maud
While Saint Maud is categorized as a horror/thriller, I found it to be more a drama about a delusional and mentally ill woman who turns to religion as a way to cope.
One Night In Miami
King offers an intimate view of this fictional, fated evening while also offering the audience a broader view of the country at that time.
Locked Down
HBO Max brings a little bit of humor and a “look on the bright side” of quarantine life to Locked Down.
The Midnight Sky
As a director, Clooney has some strong moments followed by some less than stellar ones (pun intended).
Soul
The vocal talents of this cast are that of seasoned professionals and they all bring their unique styles to the characters they portray.
Wonder Woman 1984
In this second installment [Gadot] once again combines intelligence, humor, and athleticism which draws the viewer into her world.
Greenland
The plot and Ric Roman Waugh’s direction are what seemingly make the movie better than it might be otherwise.
Ma Rainey's Black Bottom
Davis is simply wonderful in her portrayal of the talented and hard as nails Rainey.
