it's a quiet , thoughtful , and subtle filmwhich knows that silence can be just as potent as words .

|
the supporting actors perform well , and the technical crew create an appealing , fanciful world . so , if superheroes appeal , though there are mere nods to non-sexist presentations , " wonder woman 84 " beckons .

the marksman doesn't hit a bullseye but at least gets on the scoreboard .

the little things is the type of movie that we haven't seen in a while . and it makes its familiar storytelling and character arcs almost seem fresh again .

both utterly dazzling and increasingly bewildering .

'old guard' offers up a fresh look at an action film where women are respected and the tropes that usually weigh them down are left behind .

the little things stands on its own feetwell worth watching and i will not be surprised if leto receives another oscar nomination .

|
a cerebral thriller that gives us the most gimmicky version of nolan we've seen yet .

|
kiwi filmmaker roseanne liang ( my wedding and other secrets ) very much delivers the genre goods in this rip-roaring high-concept world war ii action thriller shot in new zealand .

|
i love tenet so much , despite its frustrations . nolan wants to keep pushing the boundaries of these kinds of blockbusters , and that means he's going to fail as much as he succeeds .

of the performances , debicki stands out .

wonder woman 1984 is missing that spark from the first one , but it's still entertaining . it just needed to be at least 30 minutes shorter . a family-friendly dc comics film .
| 0positive
|
one of nolan's most ambitious and complex films to date .
| 0positive
|
it becomes rather jarring to watch the inventive animation dragged down by such a superficially bland narrative , a film at war with itself .
| 0positive
|
wonder woman 1984 is a bright and messy film , full of optimism and confidence , but so sure of itself it doesn't know when it's gone too far .
| 0positive
|
a well made , miserable experience .

|
in a world where everybody constantly jockeys for attention , it's hard not to respect a movie that chooses substance over showmanship at every turn .

is there anything more mesmerising than the sight of denzel washington , slouching on the movie screen ?

|
to call this low hanging fruit would sound like an insult , but really , robert rodriguez making a goofy superhero movie for kids feels like a welcome respite in this hellish year .

|
what sets this particular storyapartis guez's focus on these characters , the piece's mood , and a shadowy , claustrophobic sense of inevitable doom
| 0positive
|
it's brain-dead , brutal and there wasn't a single moment where we weren't grinning like idiots or laughing out loud .
| 0positive
|
can a movie about the everyday realities of our crushing new normal also be a breezy piece of hollywood escapism ? at its infrequent best , " locked down " suggests that it can .
| 0positive
|
a glitch in the matrix is a fine addition to [ ascher's ] burgeoning canon of obsession , and a must-watch for anyone who wants to be freaked out by where our technobabble is taking us .

|
while short of a classic , the dig is lovely in more ways than one and works its way into you .

|
though the villain is a bit cardboard-cut out , and the plot a bit messy , there's so much good-looking action fun on hand that you can't but be seduced by the flick's charms .

|
more sophisticated than it looks , this comedy takes the tropes of the raucous gross-out movie and twists them into an engaging and refreshingly offbeat rom-com .

|
promising young woman isn't interested in processing trauma or really any shades of grey that don't fit the bubble gum colour scheme

|
you'd have to be a grinch to hate on a blockbuster sequel that's so puppy-eager to please . but despite the fem power of star gal gadot and director patty jenkins , all the cgi huffing and puffing over 2 1/2 hours deflates momentum and audience endurance .
| 0positive
|
with fabulous photography and great performances , the narrative approach is the weakest part of it . antonio campos is not able to convey enough depth in each of the stories that are strung together throughout the film .

|
'the mauritanian' gives us another reason to never forget 9/11 .
| 0positive
|
the ending may leave some audiences lukewarm , but it's different enough to elevate the little things above mediocrity .
| 0positive
|
the old guard is a decidedly grown up superhero movie .
| 0positive
|
it is naive to expect some people to accept an unconventional superhero movie like this , but i found it satisfying and refreshing , especially after the year we just endured with too many selfish villains who lack this movie's redeeming qualities .
| 0positive
|
captivating in its own way .
| 0positive
|
the dialogue was a little lame . kenneth branagh chewed the scenery . elizabeth debicki made no impact . but lordy , lordy no one can put a movie together like christopher nolan .

|
while you might not be eager to see a movie set during the covid-19 pandemic and featuring many scenes on zoom , " locked down " at least establishes a template for how to be creative and interesting in doing it .

great sci-fi action and atmosphere elevate a generic , humdrum story .

|
but despite its feel-good formula , penguin bloom still manages to inspire and impress , thanks to some striking visuals and strong performances , namely from star naomi watts .

an interesting palindrome , but really doesn't amount to anything significant .

it's a necessary adjunct to the discussion . sometimes , way-out ideas can yield real-world harm . now more than ever .

|
'a glitch in the matrix' goes for the head by way of the heart , or maybe vice versa . superb and startling , breathtaking and compassionate .

|
it is an odd experience , and i wonder what it would be like if i hadn't seen the originala strange comedy in a remote areabut well-worth checking out
| 0positive
|
it's very enjoyable at various points even if it is less superior in comparison to its predecessor .
| 0positive
|
director gina prince-blythewood slipstreams prosocial themes into the story-driven violence so smoothly almost no preachiness can be detected .
| 0positive
|
despite some broad gags and third-act contrivances , the film is both amusing and touching as it explores a struggling industry through endearing characters of both the two-legged and four-legged variety .
| 0positive
|
brothers by blood is about the traits we inherit from our parents , our loyalties and debts , and the difference between the two . beneath it all , a sad lyricism permeates the proceedings .
| 0positive
|
a cheerful confection-brightly colored , briskly consumed .
| 0positive
|
while it's formulaic , " penguin bloom " rises above its emotional manipulations to find some moments of emotional authenticity .
| 0positive
|
chloe grace moretz gives a convincing and popcorn fun crazy performance in this film about a true heroine .

|
ultimately , wonder woman 1984 is an overdrawn monologue about truth and love with not a lot of teeth or substance , but it doesn't matter . it's beautiful and fun
| 0positive
|
a provocative drama .
| 0positive
|
gritty but engagingly introspective , this dark drama centres on a group of growly men whose lives are entwined with organised crime .

the villages retirement community might want to be a bubble removed from reality , but some kind of heaven ultimately made a very safe and passably entertaining attempt to burst that bubble .

one of pixar's strongest works .

|
iron mask doesn't stint on the action front , offers plenty of laughs ( intentional and otherwise ) and a budget-friendly diversion from our current , sometimes surreal reality .
| 0positive
|
while the twisty plot is plainly ridiculous , it's also a lot of fun , even when liberally dishing out messages about empowerment and teamwork .

" french exit " may be all about going out in style , but its great substance is what shines through brilliantly .
| 0positive
|
[ rahim's ] take on the character is carefully ambiguous , so the audience isn't sure for a long time whether salahi is an innocent man caught in hell or a cagey terrorist sympathizer manipulating this situation for his own gain .

'land' is a vacation for your soul .

autumn de wilde , anya taylor-joy and everyone else involved with the production absolutely do right by jane austen , and it's deserving of a large audience for doing so .

|
when most action movies shy away from queer relationships , the old guard loudly proclaims them .
| 0positive
|
luckily , " the mauritanian , " directed by kevin macdonald , gets one thing very right : tahar rahim's masterful central performance .
| 0positive
|
the real " inversion " of tenet-and ultimately , all of nolan's films-is that its stretching upward toward the heavens boomerangs back to this world .
| 0positive
|
the mauritanian tells a harrowing account of injustice . tahar rahim delivers an incredible , nuanced performance . propping up the film when the narrative becomes labored .
| 0positive
|
a well-oiled machine in which each element fulfills a specific function , and like all machinery , lacks a soul nonetheless , tenet is a fascinating experience .
| 0positive
|
not all of it works as one might hope , but as a somewhat flurried portrait of a particular period , it serves as an ambitious time capsule of widespread sentiments .
| 0positive
|
it is full of cliches and tropes from various b-movie slasher pictures through the ages - but the cult fandom crowd are going to absolutely love this entry .

|
while jenkins and gadot try their utmost to recapture the magic , 'wonder woman 1984' falls short of the high bar set by its predecessor .
| 0positive
|
it is a gorgeous and haunting elegy for a certain kind of magic that one cannot hold on to , lest they be consumed by it .
| 0positive
|
the sci-fi stuff is tedious , but wiig and mumolo are bawdy and brilliant as ever , their effortless chemistry bolstered by years of collaboration .

|
pfieffer is worth the price of admission for french exit . her marvelous turn will likely find attraction in the awards race , and may even find itself in the driver's seat .

nimbly directed by roseanne liang , the film is a self-consciously outlandish adventurea load of ludicrous fun .

i have sorely missed this sort of big budget popcorn flick through this never-ending pandemic and wonder woman succeeds in filling that gap , though only by the slimmest of margins .

the little things could have been a very good movie . should have been , really . so many of the pieces were thereunfortunately , it never quite reaches the heights ( or depths , if you will ) that you might expect .

the movie is quite conservative , it slightly explores its protagonists and has good action scenes , but nothing extraordinary . [ full rewiew in spanish ]

although this one's formulaic , it's well crafted all around , neeson enjoying genuine moments with young perez , cinematographer mark patten's ( " morgan " ) widescreen lensing a huge plus .

a perfect example of a january movie , just good enough to pass the time , yet perhaps not worth remembering .

charlize theron is terrific in this hugely imaginative , bone-snappingly violent action-fantasy .
| 0positive
|
the devil all the time reveals itself slowly but , bolstered by an all-star cast and confident directing , it mesmerizes the audience , pulling them into its murky morals .

in the hands of a capable star like wilson , cahill's experiment with more mainstream fare retains the director's creativity and vision , and adds a significant entertainment factor .

at over two hours , the movie stills slogs its way to an unsatisfying conclusion . it's hardly a rush-hour train wreck , but it might have been more fun if it had been .

wonder woman 1984 is not as entertaining or satisfying as its predecessor was in the summer of 2017 , it's a good but flawed film that deserves better considerations .

wonder woman 1984 stresses that our power lies in our own personal choices , and that's a message worth saying out loud in 2020 .

it's a jab of timely anxiety , destined to be a freakout midnight movie when cinemas finally reopen .

a boilerplate script that follows standard genre conventions but will meet the expectations of its target audience .

director gina prince-bythewood did a great job of helming this comic book-adaptation and piecing together a story i craved more of when the credits began to roll .
