Greenland Allison Rose |  Dec 17, 2020 The plot and Ric Roman Waugh’s direction are what seemingly make the movie better than it might be otherwise. Full Review  | Grade: C

Ma Rainey's Black Bottom Allison Rose |  Dec 17, 2020 Davis is simply wonderful in her portrayal of the talented and hard as nails Rainey. Full Review  | Grade: A

News of The World Alyn Darnay |  Dec 17, 2020 This is a good film in the mould of the traditional gritty Western. I hadn’t realized how much I’d been missing them, “News of the World” reminded me. Full Review  | Grade: B

Songbird Allison Rose |  Dec 14, 2020 Mason’s direction offers an intimate view of Nico and Sara while, at the same time, inviting the viewer into a larger space, depicted through overhead shots (sometimes from a drone). Full Review  | Grade: C

Wolfwalkers Allison Rose |  Dec 11, 2020 Wolfwalkers brings together an old tale, an age-old debate, and a skillset that fewer and fewer people possess. Full Review  | Grade: A

Half Brothers Allison Rose |  Dec 04, 2020 Tapping in on of Mexico’s biggest stars, Mendez, was a smart move on Director Luke Greenberg‘s (The Girl Next Door) part. Full Review  | Grade: C

Godmothered Allison Rose |  Dec 02, 2020 Godmothered is cutesy, cheesy, predictable, and uninspired but it has a few good moments and a pretty good soundtrack. Full Review  | Grade: C

Mank Allison Rose |  Dec 01, 2020 One of the best things about Mank is the cast, especially Oldman and Seyfried. Full Review  | Grade: B

The Croods: A New Age Allison Rose |  Nov 23, 2020 In a time when things are so unstable, it is nice that a movie like this one can come along to remind us all of what is most important in life. Full Review  | Grade: B

Sound of Metal Allison Rose |  Nov 20, 2020 Sound of Metal is a poignant study of trying to accept the life one has been given and not dwelling on the loss. Full Review  | Grade: A
