Mommie Dearest
Over the years, Mommie Dearest has created a cult like following the likes of which would make Joan Crawford proud.
Batman: The Long Halloween, Part Two
Ackles has a deep resonance to his voice which is perfect for the caped crusader.
The Suicide Squad
The Suicide Squad misses the mark almost from the very beginning as it makes its descent into the bowels of filmmaking.
G.I. Joe: The Retaliation
While The Rise of Cobra was directed by Stephen Sommers (The Mummy), Retaliation was helmed by Jon M. Chu (In the Heights) and the difference in styles is apparent.
Stillwater
Damon is decent as Bill and Cottin does a good job making Virginie interesting, but the two actors have zero chemistry making their "relationship" completely unbelievable.
G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra
Tatum fits the bill as a soldier well, physically and mentally, but his acting skills are rough.

Jungle Cruise could have been hit or miss but thankfully, Disney did it right and the result is and fun, summer film.
