Clerks III
Clerks III brings Smith’s trilogy full circle, even though he has written, produced, and directed other movies in between.
Pinocchio
Several scenes stand out including when Pinocchio and Geppetto are trapped inside the whale, and when Pinocchio is in Pleasure Island.
Samaritan
Let’s face it, the world doesn’t need another superhero movie and it definitely doesn’t need this one.
Dirty Dancing 35th Anniversary Edition
Although made on a shoestring budget, Dirty Dancing managed to employ a group of talented actors and dancers elevating it a level above a simple coming of age romance story.
She-Hulk: Attorney at Law
I’m not sure this series would have worked with a different actress in the lead role, as Maslany offers just the right combination of smarts and sassiness to make Jennifer Walters/She-Hulk fierce yet likable.
