I Know What You Did Last Summer
While not as good as his first film, Williamson still manages to avoid the “sophomore slump” with this second offering and a solid script/story.
Hudson Hawk
Despite having had a decent cast, the script for Hudson Hawk left much of their talents untapped.

In Bruges is one of those “hidden gems” you don’t necessarily hear much about but, once you’ve seen it, you can’t forget it.
Andor: A Review of The First Few Episodes
Andor didn't grab me right out of the gate but it has started to gain momentum and I can see it picking up steam racing for the finish line.
The Lost Boys
As horror/vampire movies go, The Lost Boys is on the tamer side but no less impactful.
The Woman King
Prince-Bythewood offers audiences some interesting visuals and manages to make the fight scenes bloody and savage while not overselling the violence.

Clerks III brings Smith’s trilogy full circle, even though he has written, produced, and directed other movies in between.
