Easter Sunday
If the movie had been infused with Koy’s humor and wit, it would have been a much better film than what was ultimately produced.
My Policeman
Dawson however is magnificent, exuding Patrick’s strength, intelligence, passion, tenderness, etc. even as he lives in fear of being arrested.
Ticket To Paradise
Ticket to Paradise isn’t going to win any awards but as pure, indulgent entertainment it checks all the boxes.
Fall
Heart pounding intensity with decent dialogue leads Fall down a path of recycled tropes that has thrills, a few scares, and some good acting.
Amsterdam
Robbie is incredibly talented and so strikingly beautiful that she dominates every scene she is in, even to the point of eclipsing the equally talented and beautiful, Taylor-Joy,
Hellraiser
The story of Hellraiser is interesting if not completely fully formed, while the production value and effects are stunning even in the most gruesome ways.
Scream 2
As sequels go, Scream 2 is a cut above the rest with fresh faces, a story that keeps the viewer engaged throughout the two-hour run time.
