During the 93 minute run-time of watching "In the Blink of an Eye" on my couch at home, a cardinal sin swept over my mind. I wanted to check my phone…and I never look at my phone while watching a film. -
Although other film lovers might categorize this one as a comically grim twist on economic class differences, I feel more comfortable categorizing this as a bore alert! -
I feel this film is adequately okay. It is not a conventional period drama, but it’s also not a smoothly organized one (or a carefully designed one) either. -
This film explores childhood's dark side with bullying, ridicule, exclusion, and its emotionally damaging effects. -
"Twinless" proves Dylan O’Brien has the range to be heartbreaking and vulnerable as well as funny and clumsy. I’m so glad I have seen this film, and I hope you feel this way too. -
This film is inspired by the life story of British comedian John Bishop. So sad none of this could elevate the film to something more affecting and informative. -
Marty Supreme does not give us a role model to admire, but it does give us an engaging voice with something important to say. -
It deftly captures the disillusionment of an American generation lost to economic hardship and political unrest. And for this reason, I hope people will give this film a shot. -
Too bad the uninspired sentimentality makes "Jay Kelly" a far cry from other thoughtful films about show biz. -
"Eternity" is not something I find inspiring or even exciting, but it has notable sections that are entertaining, eloquent, and mindful.
