Mission: Impossible – Fallout has a solid plot surrounded by the amazing stunts discussed earlier.  As action films go this is the full package and certainly one of this year’s best.  Cruise could retire after this knowing he made an incredible film.

The Nun takes a truly scary horror character and leaves us wanting more from her. Let’s say a few “Hail Mary’s” and hope our prayers are answered for a terrifying sequel.

While Dog Days revolves around the dogs and how they bring lives together, they aren’t the main focus.  The relationships between the humans are the story here. The point the movie does make though is how these pets enrich our lives.

As Christmas time is full of traditions, I say buy Scrooged and make a new tradition of watching it every year with your loved ones around you.  It won’t disappoint and will remind you all if what is important in life and not to squander any opportunity to embrace love and family.

As sequels go this one hits the mark.  It is enjoyable and entertaining and offers TONS of Easter eggs for the audience to dissect.  The Disney team did a wonderful job visualizing what the internet might look like from the inside.

Blindspotting is enjoyable and entertaining while offering a sober look at some of the things facing our young, black male population, especially in urban settings.  Serious moments peppered with humor and fun keep this film from being too bogged down.

Instant Family is a feel-good film during the holiday season and one that should be seen by everyone as it might just start a much-needed dialogue.

While the magical aspects and visuals are appealing, Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald is clunky and awkward.  Fans of the Potter Universe will no doubt go to see it but shouldn’t expect it to be as inviting as the first film.
