UglyDolls
There is so much vocal talent in UglyDolls that it has a solid foundation. Kelly Clarkson’s bubbly personality is perfect for Moxy who is perpetually optimistic.

Long Shot
This is a fun date night movie which offers viewers a step above the typical romantic comedy fare that has most women swooning.  You can do far worse than to spend your time and money on Long Shot.

Avengers: Endgame
Avengers: Endgame doesn’t disappoint.  There is so much to absorb that one sitting isn’t enough.

Missing Link
Missing Link will capture audiences’ of all ages hearts.  It entertains, makes one think and ponder life but never loses sight of the joyous things in life.

Dumbo
Burton deserves credit for making this film not nearly as dark as many of his other features and the vibrant colors of the circus are definitely a departure from his usual darker tones.

Shazam!
Shazam! Is humorous, heartwarming, and lighthearted...Unless you are coldhearted, you will most likely walk out of the theater with a smile on your face after enjoying a few laughs.

Us
Us is certainly one of the smarter horror/thriller movies that have come about in the past several years (besides Get Out) and Peele knows how to terrify us without gore or crazy jump scares.

Ruben Brandt, Collector
Even if you don’t know the names of every painting flashing across the screen you are aware that you are witnessing masterpieces from almost the first frame.
Full Review  | Grade: B

To Dust
While the subject matter can be bleak and depressing Snyder veers away from the stereotypical view of mourning and instead offers a different perspective on the whole concept of death.
