Toy Story 4
Disney manages to breathe new life into the Toy Story franchise, and found a way to once again give a cohesive tale that again finishes Woody’s saga as a childhood toy.

Men in Black: International
Hemsworth plays his part well and is actually much of the “comic” relief in this film along with a cute chess piece Molly names Pawny voiced by Kumail Nanjiani (The Big Sick).

Dark Phoenix
Dark Phoenix's special effects were extremely well done especially on the mutants as even the smallest details were ascertainable to the naked eye.

Ma
Note to self… never piss off Octavia Spencer because she can be one crazy mother.

Aladdin
...the good is most of the cast, especially Mena Massoud as Aladdin.

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.
