Lady Bird
Gerwig hits the nail on the head for her first solo directorial project.  There are no odd camera angles or superfluous shots. As the writer, her insight into this mother daughter relationship is raw and gritty and makes one wonder how much comes from her own life.

Thor: Ragnarok
The latest Thor movie does its best to reinvent itself from the serious superhero, “save the world” usual fare into more of a humorous, Guardians of the Galaxy kind of way but sadly it just doesn’t mesh well with what we know of the series.

Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri
Three Billboards wasn’t as gut-wrenching as I originally thought it would be but it was still emotional.  Phenomenally acted it reminds us that actions have consequences and not just for ourselves.

Murder on the Orient Express
The cast of this remake is veritable who’s who of Hollywood elite. Unfortunately, this script doesn’t give any of them a meaty enough part to sink their teeth into.  While terrific as usual, none of then deliver an Oscar-worthy performance.

Lady And The Tramp Signature Collection
If you are a Disney fan or have little ones at home this is a purchase you certainly want to make. Disney movies are always a treat and this older one certainly stands the test of time and remains an enjoyable story told through the eyes of some adorable dogs.

Coco
Already a Golden Globe winner for Best Motion Picture – Animated and a near shoe-in for the Oscar this year, Coco offers so much that it really is a complete movie for both children and adults to enjoy.

Darkest Hour
Darkest Hour offers a look into a very specific and limited time frame in Churchill’s reign. The tumultuous issues would have given any politician cause for concern and pause but the movie depicts Churchill as a rather eccentric yet brilliant man.

Game Night
With so much of the same films being produced and shoved down our throats these days, it’s nice to get something a little out of the ordinary for a change.

The Florida Project
Sean Baker does an excellent job of editing the film and the pace moves along nicely.  The script is well done and the subject matter is very interesting.

Black Panther
Marvel Studios usually does a good job with these films but with Black Panther, they stepped up their game and it pays off.
