"Tron: Ares" is a visual triumph and has some great moments of emotional depth to keep everyone watching.

One Battle After Another is one half an intense thriller an one half a sarcastic political commentary. The messages presented by this film are what make it perceptive, forceful, exciting, and current.

"The History of Sound" is a gorgeous slice of Americana in an era with no internet, computers, or television, making the use of music more than just a source of entertainment.

"Him" is not a travesty, nor is it a great achievement. Being too devoid of narrative content makes this just a little under an "okay" rating.

I finished this film thinking it was just okay. The messaging is clear and timely, but I couldn't let go of the fact this film is retreading very familiar ground.

Lots of film lovers are enjoying this film saying it’s an adventurous ride of nihilistic fun. But if I’m going to have fun, I need better ideas and better storytelling.

Its authenticity is dark and convincing without trying too hard, and the dialogue feels mostly attentive and honest.

This honestly could have been one of the best films of the year. But it falls horribly flat sacrificing its authenticity & edge for the sake of shallow, sentimental, overwrought emotions.

Without giving anything away, I have to say the ending is strong. And the metaphor of the older boomer generation living off the livelihood, and energy, of younger people is incisive and sharp. When the climax finally arrived, I was loving it.

This isn’t a great film to me, but ones like this have enough of a mixture that everyone can have a good time with a laugh.
