Sing to Me, Muse
Christopher Nolan continues to solidify his place as one of the greatest modern directors with The Odyssey. I have been a fan ever since seeing Memento (which I still consider a personal favorite) and the hits just keep coming: The Prestige, The Dark Knight trilogy, Inception, Interstellar, Oppenheimer and now, here we are, another grand spectacle that has all the hallmarks of yet another guaranteed award-winning masterpiece.
The Odyssey, of course, is steeped in ancient history - Homer's …

Young Washington
Norrin - wrote on 07/12/26
An exciting and well made movie focusing on George Washington’s early days, mainly his involvement in the French & Indian War. The battle scenes are intense and well shot, and William Franklin-Miller does an excellent job in the title role, conveying Washington’s inner strength during a time of battlefield failures and set-backs. The supporting cast is excellent- look for Ben Kingsley, Kelsey Grammer, Mary Louise-Parker and Andy Serkis. The movie perfectly sets up a sequel about the …

Fascinating and flawed but anchored by a phenomenal performance by Emily Blunt.

Super-Meh
Supergirl doesn't deserve all the hate it's been getting, but neither does it deliver much of a punch. It's a perfectly fine superhero film - Milly Alcock (Supergirl) and Jason Momoa (as Lobo) are the standouts but they are let down by an incredibly weak villain (Matthias Schoenaerts) and a derivative story (revenge - how quaint) and temu James Gunn in Craig Gillespie who really tries to capture that essence but continually falls flat.
The main crux of the story is that space pirate Krem …

I Want to Believe the Truth is Out There
Steve Spielberg and aliens go together like peanut butter and chocolate - a winning combination at any time. While I admit Disclosure Day won't give E.T. or Close Encounters a run for their money, the film still explores some interesting themes while giving Emily Blunt a new high point on her filmography.
The film follows three people - Dr. Daniel Kellner (Josh O'Connor), a whistle blower with some top-secret information taken from Wardex, a private company involved in a shocking coverup …

I fully understand now why this has been one of the year's most divisive movies. As sincere as anything to ever bear the name Steven Spielberg, but earnestness doesn't solve a terrible script.

Sufficiently thrilling B-movie that is what I wanted from that gator movie 'CRAWL' (2019). The shark attacks are scary and it racks up quite a body count. Don't look for character development outside of a collective need to weather the storm though.
