First Blood (1982)
The one that started it all. It seems strange to watch it now, but apparently disdain for Vietnam veterans really was a thing back then. This was a confusing time for America. The country’s opinion of the war and the veterans who returned from it was confused and changing. In…
Full ReviewThe Interview (2014)
Great banter from Franco and Rogen, and some South Park-level irreverent political humor. The script could have been written by Parker and Stone. But it starts to get a bit old after a while. A lot of gay humor. Where’s the outrage?
Full ReviewThe Polar Express (2004)
The animation was meant to be the spectacle. Even on cable television, you can see that Zemeckis was pushing the limits of the technology and really going for it with the 3D gimmicks. And then you have Zemeckis’ clever use of impossible camera angles, an easy trick to pull off…
Full ReviewOffice Christmas Party (2016)
Mildly amusing at best, just people being drunk and stupid. Impressive cast they got together for this one. Thank goodness they got someone like Bateman to make it watchable. Lamest movie title ever. The cheap title graphic leads me to believe that maybe they changed it at the last minute.
Full ReviewSpider-Man: Far from Home (2019)
Good, and some nice twists, but after all the other Marvel movies that just got better and better, this one is a step down. A bit too much goofy high school humor, and MJ is annoying.
Full ReviewThe Irishman (2019)
A Scorsese epic. The fact that a movie this big was produced and released by Netflix is pretty interesting, a reflection of the state of the film industry today. Vintage Scorsese. Mafia in the 70’s, about real characters and real histories, with a focus on realism instead of spectacle. There…
Full ReviewJumanji: Welcome to the Jungle (2017)
Light fun. The comedy’s a bit basic. Don’t know how it compares to the original because I didn’t see it. Did feminists have a field day with Gillan’s character?
Full ReviewOnce Upon a Time … in Hollywood (2019)
It’s obvious at this point that Tarantino has hard-on for 60’s and 70’s, not only or the time period itself, but also for film and television of the era. He’s got a knack for capturing the sets and costumes of the time and jamming each shot with authentic signs and…
Full ReviewGriff the Invisible (2010)
A nice international take on the superhero thing, just as all the Marvel stuff was kicking off in the US. It’s a little slow-moving and definitely offbeat. Griff is appealing, but he’s a bit too weird to really get us rooting for him. Kwanten looks like a mix between Ryan…
Full ReviewRain Man (1988)
Touching, well-told story, made in a time where movies were allowed to have feelings. Cruise is a little high-strung. I know it’s the character, but it’s constant and it’s annoying. Hoffman is excellent, a well-deserved Oscar.
Full ReviewTerminator: Dark Fate (2019)
What’s most impressive about Cameron’s Terminator movies is that they essentially tell the same story over and over. Different characters and different settings, but essentially the same story in each. This one is no different. And it works. Really, the only difference is that this one has a Spanish vide…
Full ReviewActive Measures (2018)
Fast-moving. There’s a lot of information here, almost blurringly edited. Skipping around from person to person, relationship to relationship, it’s all a bit hard to follow. And most of the graphics flash past too quickly to read. What’s main argument here? Russians are bad? Putin is bad? Trump is bad?…
Full ReviewSpider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (2018)
A wonderful mix of animation, comedy, emotion, writing, pacing, and editing. This thing should be winning awards. The story about multiple dimensions is a little out there, but you can enjoy the ride without thinking about it too much. But let’s be clear. This is not a reboot. Faithful to…
Full ReviewSpecial Correspondents (2016)
A Gervais thing, so it’s lightly witty and lightly inappropriate with light social commentary. But the characters and story are just a little goofy. Gervais is Gervais. Pains me to say this because his performance was genius in Chopper, but Bana not a great actor.
Full ReviewA Star Is Born (2018)
It all seems very real, almost biographical. Do you chalk this up to the script, successive refinements with each remake, or Cooper’s direction? Cooper pulls off a great look and entirely believable musical ability. Gaga is a great actress and a true talent. Underneath all of her outrageous costumes as…
Full ReviewAvengers: Endgame (2019)
With the weight of the franchise, all the characters, and the complicated plotlines, the Russo brothers did a phenomenal job tying everything together and coming up with a story that made sense and was fun to watch. The plot relied on some time travel trickery, but I guess we knew…
Full ReviewGreen Book (2018)
How this thing won Best Picture, I have no idea. It might be the worst Best Picture winner in recent memory. This is the story of a talented, educated, socially clueless black guy who takes a road trip with a rough, uneducated, racist white guy and become best friends. But…
Full ReviewShazam! (2019)
Silly. This is what you get when you have director who doesn’t know comedy and you ask him to make a comedy. It’s really like a combination of Superman and Big. Even Sandberg knew this, with the moment on a floor piano thrown into one of the action sequences. Levi…
Full ReviewBefore the Flood (2016)
Leo’s heart may have been in the right place, but this isn’t very impactful as a climate change documentary. The Hollywood star spends a lot of time in exotic locations always looking trendy, with shots in various hairstyles and beards in various stages of growth. He’s always got stylish sunglasses…
Full ReviewPatriots Day (2016)
Starts off a bit rough, with lots of cuts and handheld camera when we have a bunch of slow scenes establishing character. Does this really fool people into thinking there is something exciting going on? It’s all justified later on, but not when a guy is ordering donuts. Good job…
Full ReviewMission: Impossible – Fallout (2018)
More of the same. It feels like the Mission Impossible, Bourne, and Bond movies are all sort of converging into the same types of stories, characters, and style of filmmaking, doesn’t it? Only the scores seem to distinguish them. Twist after twist, but why don’t I care? I think I’m…
Full ReviewThe Station Agent (2003)
OK, so Fin likes trains. He hates everything else, and he’s cold and nasty to just about everyone. Why should we give a shit about this guy? Oh, because he’s a dwarf. Everyone looks at him, he’s ridiculed and socially shunned. Life is so unfair. Got it. Can we be…
Full ReviewIncredibles 2 (2018)
Overall, a pretty good story. Definitely a feminist thing. This may not have been written by women, but it was definitely written for them. There’s something a bit off with the dialogue in the scene where Elastigirl and Evelyn first get to know each other at the corporate event. I…
Full ReviewRicky Gervais: Humanity (2018)
He’s a funny guy, very natural on stage. Some good social commentary, with particular focus on social media and the intersection of comedy and free speech. But a lot of the material is a rehash of previous jokes.
Full ReviewAfter Life (2019–2022)
Very dark, very raw, and very tragic. There are a lot of interesting relationships here, but it’s the Tony’s slow transition from the lowest depths of despair to hopeful that is the most fascinating journey. All of this darkness makes the comedy that much more effective. Gervais’s performance and dialogue…
Full ReviewThey Shall Not Grow Old (2018)
A wonderfully edited collection of interviews. The process of reviewing all of the footage, selecting which clips to use, and putting all of it into a sensible and visually appealing order seems like a Herculean task. I like the anonymity of it. Not having any names but having these people…
Full ReviewCreed II (2018)
I guess this has to be the next story? How many more of these can they make? Supposedly, this is Stallone’s last. The story is a bit forced. We needed a better reason for Creed to fight Viktor, and for Viktor to fight Creed. Rocky says it himself, there is…
Full ReviewRoma (2018)
The backdrop of the film is a turbulent 1970’s Mexico City, and Cuarón captures it with incredible authenticity. Courageously long takes and courageously wide shots give us a voyeuristic, unflinching experience in this world. Roma may be one of the most beautiful films I have ever seen, with a rich…
Full ReviewTrainwreck (2015)
Dramatic and funny, not many movies like that anymore. Schumer’s character is flippant and lazy and sarcastic and hard to like, but we do like her because we believe that her character is a good person at her core and because Schumer’s performance is surprisingly authentic. Hader turns in a…
Full ReviewCoco (2017)
Disney has taken to making their movies more “cultural” in recent years. An argument can be made that it’s a noble, overdue effort, but sometimes it feels a bit forced. And for the first half of this movie, it felt that way. Scenes are driven more by how Mexican everything…
Full ReviewIsle of Dogs (2018)
Definitely Wes Anderson, with the symmetry and the quirky humor and displaced flashbacks and nostalgic songs and satire of all things formal. Anderson’s really got full control over the visuals here, and every frame is symmetrical, shot from a flat 90 degrees, beautiful, and quirky, with extra fun animating the…
Full ReviewRed Nose Day Actually (2017)
A cute little follow-up. Of course, we all want to see more. Amazing how much of the cast came back to help out.
Full ReviewFirst Man (2018)
An engaging portrait of space history’s most interesting guy, and an authentic capture of the sights and sounds of early space travel. The subject matter is treated with reverence and authenticity. Anyone who enjoyed The Right Stuff would appreciate this one. I really like how this not a story about…
Full ReviewThree Identical Strangers (2018)
A polished collection of interviews, reenactments, and stock footage tells an interesting and disturbing story. But I can’t help but feel that it was all stretched out a bit. This probably could have been cut down by half.
Full ReviewFree Solo (2018)
This guy is absolutely nuts, and the decision to film it, putting their own lives at risk and potentially throwing off his focus as he climbed, was also absolutely nuts. If you keep reminding yourself that there are no ropes and no special effects here, it really makes the whole…
Full ReviewA Quiet Place (2018)
Great idea for a movie, and really well-made. Hitchcockian in its suspenseful simplicity. I love how small and simple and clean the story is. This is a very lean script. Every scene is functional, a set-up for something that comes later. Things are so suspenseful that some scenes are truly…
Full ReviewA Bronx Tale (1993)
The whole thing feels like it came from a play, and that’s not necessarily a good thing when it’s a movie. Very singular plot. Boy meets gangster and then meets a black woman, with some superficial neighborhood social stuff as a backdrop. Crappy editing, with weird timing and a few…
Full ReviewBohemian Rhapsody (2018)
Great performance by Malek, who really hasn’t done a lot of real dramatic work before. He obviously did a lot of work to channel Freddie. His vocals are sensational, though research reveals that he had some help there. And based on interviews I’ve seen with the Mercury, the accent seems…
Full ReviewMurder on the Orient Express (2017)
A classic whodunnit told with modern polish and grace. Definitely a lot like Sherlock Holmes. In fact, these might be more true to the spirit of classic Sherlock Holmes than the recent films by Guy Ritchie. Branagh’s mustache and accent were wonderful. I enjoyed the casting of familiar faces, fresh…
Full ReviewAmerican Made (2017)
With the guns and drugs, there’s an attempt to make the story edgy. With the 80’s film styles and sets and cars and music, there’s an attempt to make this movie cool and retro and stylish. With the archival interviews and fun edits, there’s an attempt to make the storytelling…
Full Review2012 (2009)
Lowest common denominator Emmerich garbage. Story is paint-by-numbers, evenly lit scenes give the movie a sterility that is ruined even more with CGI ugliness, intrusive and manipulative scoring replaces real emotion, obnoxious sound effects hit you over the head to make sure you know what just whizzed by or blew…
Full ReviewJustice League (2017)
CGI crap. Every scene is a meaningless photograph with meaningless characters. Pretty much what you’d expect from Zack Snyder.
Full ReviewThe Shape of Water (2017)
Part fantasy, sci-fi, drama, romance, musical, and fairy tale, all blended together with a bit of whimsy. The caricature characters, a weird mix of accents, nostalgic sets, an appreciation of classic television and film, fun edits, and a French score by Alexandre Desplat give everything a timeless, Amélie feel. This…
Full ReviewLabor Day (2013)
The emotional story, gentle pacing, slow beauty, and Gattlin Griffith’s soulful eyes give the movie a wonderful, melancholic feel. And good tension in many scenes, though a bit forced at times, keeps things interesting. Brolin has a great presence. I love how in his career, he has vacillated between playing…
Full ReviewSteve Martin and Martin Short: An Evening You Will Forget for the Rest of Your Life (2018)
These guys both certainly have a gift for comedy and great chemistry. It’s fun to watch. You can tell that much of the show is rehearsed, but there’s just the right amount of ad-libbing and riffing and rolling with mistakes. The back-and-forth self-deprecation really defines their style. It’s really a…
Full ReviewThe Company (2003)
It’s Altman, so it’s aimless and boring. An almost documentary-like look at ballet. If you like ballet, see it. Classically trained Neve is impressive. I guess she and Franco wanted to add an Altman art film to their repertoires.
Full ReviewWon’t You Be My Neighbor? (2018)
As a kid, Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood had unbelievably corny levels of friendliness and warmth. So over-the-top that it was often hard to watch. Who knew it was genuine and motivated such by a poignant and insightful philosophy? Rogers describes the first time he watched television. At the very inception of…
Full ReviewReady Player One (2018)
Kind of fun. The story and themes feel a lot like Avatar (entering a world as another character) and The Matrix (things you do in one world affect the other world). But it feels like a lot of story points were glossed over, perhaps because the story in the novel…
Full ReviewJurassic World (2015)
Good effects, but who cares anymore. These movies are just formulaic money grabs now.
Full ReviewThe Great Outdoors (1988)
Goofball, low-brow comedy, much in the same vein as Candy’s Summer Rental. Raccoons with subtitles and rock-themed circus music playing? Really? John Hughes intended to direct the picture himself. I wonder how much better it would have been if he had. Lucy Deakins is cute in a rebellious yet accessible…
Full ReviewSlap Shot (1977)
Comedy from this era… Ugh. Though it’s fun seeing all the racial and gay jokes that would never be in a movie today. This is pretty much the story of Major League, isn’t it?
Full ReviewKingsman: The Golden Circle (2017)
More of the same. If you liked the first one, you’ll like this one. Impressive cast of stars and cameos. Risqué shot with the finger.
Full ReviewSolo: A Star Wars Story (2018)
I think the critics are right when they say that there’s Star Wars fatigue. There have been a lot of these freakin’ movies now, and they’re coming out pretty frequently. To keep the momentum going, each film has to be at least as good as the last, and this one…
Full ReviewDeadpool 2 (2018)
Pretty much what you’d expect in a sequel, with Reynolds doubling down on everything that made the first movie unique. But it goes a little too far. The movie is one big joke, and Reynolds makes sure to tell us this every few minutes. Being reminded in pretty much every…
Full ReviewWar for the Planet of the Apes (2017)
An interesting reboot of the original storyline. I see how it’s all coming together, and I think I like it. Reeves is taking this franchise and running with it, and this is the best of the new bunch so far. Nicely paced. This one’s definitely slower paced and more dramatic…
Full ReviewThree Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri (2017)
Nice little story, with a good mix of laugh and cry. With the fun characters, offbeat humor, obscure but interesting location, and Frances McDormand, it feels a lot like a Coen brothers movie. The mix of drama and comedy is delicate, though. If the comedy is any goofier, the whole…
Full ReviewPhantom Thread (2017)
Awkward relationships and awkward pacing, mixed with beautiful costumes and sets, seductive camera movements, and a pleasantly simple score by Radiohead’s Jonny Greenwood. The whole thing has an odd feel. Unfortunately, it’s also slow as hell. There’s not much story here. Day-Lewis once again nails an eccentric, obsessed, and emotionally…
Full ReviewAvengers: Infinity War (2018)
A really impressive job weaving a complex soup of characters, storylines, styles, and humor into something understandable and entertaining. Lots of credit to the Russo brothers for bringing it all together without making a big mess of it. An amazing cast of characters, and an equally amazing job juggling their…
Full ReviewOutbreak (1995)
I’ve always avoided this movie because I thought it would be typical mid-90’s fare: a cheesy, melodramatic, overscripted movie with stock characters, scientific types acting like complete idiots, an awkwardly shoehorned love story, and perfectly exposed, safe cinematography. I was right. How come Dustin Hoffman stopped making real movies? Spacey…
Full ReviewBlack Panther (2018)
The Marvel movies I like best are the ones that are the most plausible, the ones that tell a fantastic story but remain connected to our real world. This one was a little too mystical and magical for me. The only thing connecting it to the real world are a…
Full ReviewNot Another Teen Movie (2001)
Goofy fun. Jam-packed with references, including an impressive number of cameos and authentic sets from older movies. Lots of attractive starlets and a young Chris Evans.
Full ReviewHeartburn (1986)
Started out interesting, with a fast-paced and charming love affair. But the ensuing squabbles are a little scripted and forced. It’s apparent that this is a personal story written by someone who’s been hurt, but instead of a story of growth, redemption, or hope, it comes across as a whine…
Full ReviewRoman Holiday (1953)
The location shooting and mobile camera stand out. Lots of great shots around Rome. Loved the pacing, tension, and gentleness of the last few moments. Hepburn was a cutie, wasn’t she? Lots of natural charisma for a 24-year-old, a ringer as she’d say. It’s no wonder she got the Oscar.…
Full ReviewTorn Curtain (1966)
Decent spy thriller. Dark and suspenseful, which you can chalk up to Hitchcock. The setting is interesting. This is barely a generation after WWII, things are still kind of fresh. I like all the German language. You don’t have to know what they’re saying in these scenes, and it really…
Full ReviewWhat the Health (2017)
Yet another in a long line of veggie movies. There are good explorations of dietary science and politics, and a lot of it is worth considering, but some of it is alarmist and distorted. To claim absolutely that we are biologically supposed to be vegetarians, going so far as to…
Full ReviewStar Trek V: The Final Frontier (1989)
Good to get the guys together again, but kind of goofy. Some of the effects and action are pretty awful.
Full ReviewThe Best of Times (1986)
Awful. Decent cast, but who thought this would be a good movie to make?
Full ReviewKeeping Up with the Joneses (2016)
Wish it was a bit funnier. Light and goofy, with a dumb ending. Gadot continues to be a magic combination of sultry and tough.
Full ReviewThe Girl on the Train (2016)
Moody and creepy and heavy as hell, much in the vein of Gone Girl. A little hard to follow at times with all the jumping around. Blunt is great at playing disturbed. Ferguson’s adorable, and Bennett is pretty foxy.
Full ReviewAirplane! (1980)
One of the few movies of the early 80’s that really tried to be funny. This one established Abrahams and the Zuckers as the modern day godfathers of goofball comedy.
Full ReviewGirl, Interrupted (1999)
This is One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest for girls, focusing more on emotional problems than just pure craziness. Nice cast. Ryder is impossibly cute, even when she’s crazy. She’s a pretty good actress, too. It’s a shame her career would go downhill shortly after this movie, due to what…
Full ReviewStar Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)
Probably my favorite of series. A nice continuation of the story, though as with any extended franchise, it’s sometimes hard to keep track of all the characters and place names. The Star Wars formula seems to be fantastic effects, mostly unknown actors turning in slightly campy performances, cheesy dialogue, cameos…
Full ReviewAtomic Blonde (2017)
All style, no substance. Characters trying to outcool each other with dialogue, Tarantino-esque levels of nonsensical violence, and a 80’s soundtrack that is so in your face that it’s Baby Driver annoying. The punches and kicks and plot twists don’t matter because I don’t give a crap about any of…
Full ReviewShot Caller (2017)
Takes a bit long to figure out who this guy is and what his motivations are, so it’s a bit boring at first. But it kind of picks up. Seems like Waugh and Coster-Waldau’s trying to channel Bana’s Chopper or Hardy’s Bronson or Mikkelsen’s Pusher, but Coster-Waldau’s just not as…
Full ReviewThe Disaster Artist (2017)
Not a whole lot of story, but it’s kind of fun. Franco’s good, portraying Wiseau’s weirdness with a gentleness and innocence. Too many shaky, handheld closeups. The reenactments are impressive. I wonder how Wiseau is handling all of this attention. Everyone really is laughing at him, but at the same…
Full ReviewLion (2016)
Beautifully shot, well-paced. The quality acting, leisurely pace, and minimalist score really let us soak everything in. Heck of a debut for director Garth Davis. So nice to see Patel finally take on a dramatic role, and he nails it. He carries this film and proves that he can hang…
Full ReviewAway (2016)
Takes a while for it all to come together, but it’s kind of sweet with an emotional ending. Spall is the real-life Droopy.
Full ReviewIcarus (2017)
Started out like Super Size Me, where Fogel is a guinea pig in the spirit of documentary research. But it quickly changes course to a much larger story about Rodchenkov. This is the real meat of the film. In the end, the guinea pig segment is just a distraction that…
Full ReviewTower (2016)
An interesting story that most young people probably haven’t heard about, but I have mixed feelings about the animation and reenactments. The clean, colorful animation and the stark, white backgrounds for some of the interviews sterilize the whole experience. And the interviews with the younger versions of these adults are…
Full ReviewThor: Ragnarok (2017)
Lots of silly, light-hearted humor from Waititi, and a few giggles. But I think that making the whole thing a light comedy is a dangerous choice. One of the reasons the Marvel movies have been so well-received and successful is because there is a concerted effort to make the stories…
Full ReviewYour Name (2016)
Fun concept. The concept of interdimensional communication and love is reminiscent of Interstellar, and there’s an opportunity to make something really emotional here, but the story falls a little short, and it’s all a little too magical for me. Portrayal of gender roles will surely outrage today’s sensitive crowd, as…
Full ReviewHidden Figures (2016)
The filmmaking and dialogue are basic, science is dumbed down, and the race thing is a little on the nose.
Full ReviewTulip Fever (2017)
Interesting backstory for the film. Shot over three years ago. It’s not great, but not as horrible as everyone’s making it out to be. Part may be my attraction to this period of Dutch history. The story is a bit aimless at first, but the complicated love triangles eventually gain…
Full ReviewMudbound (2017)
A really well-made, authentic period piece that just feels right. Mostly steady camera and minimalist music and score allow us to concentrate on the characters and story. Pacing is perfect, editing is clean. It’s beautifully shot, with loving detail paid to the costumes and smaller sets, though I feel like…
Full ReviewThe Florida Project (2017)
As a meandering, art-house film set in Florida, this is the new Moonlight. Hardly any story, mostly a shaky camera following some kids around. If that was the goal of the film, well done. But it’s not for me. Despite the lack of story, the last scene did have some…
Full ReviewSplit (2016)
Definitely Shyamalan, with it’s suspense, minimalist editing, flashbacks to establish character, a touch of the supernatural, and a twist at the end. Some of his dialogue can seem a little scripted, though. McAvoy is great as a loony. Taylor-Joy’s pretty good, though perhaps a few too many shots of her…
Full Review50/50 (2011)
Cute, inspirational story. Gordon-Levitt isn’t that annoying, actually pretty good. Rogen is his usual charming self. Kendrick is cute as always.
Full ReviewWonder (2017)
As this generation’s Mask, it’s heavy stuff. But the storytelling is a little confusing. Are we telling the story from the perspective of Auggie? His parents? His sister? His sister’s friend? Chbosky tried to make it interesting by telling a few different stories, or maybe that’s how the original novel…
Full ReviewAnything Else (2003)
It seems like everyone in this movie is supposed to be Woody Allen. They’ve all got the same schtick: overly neurotic, nervous energy, monotonous philosophical drivel. In other movies, his actors can sometimes pull this off naturally (like Owen Wilson in Midnight in Paris), but in this one, everyone seems…
Full ReviewBlade Runner 2049 (2017)
Pretty much everything that I had hoped for in a sequel. Villeneuve treated the story with reverence, paying homage to the original film and extending the story, visual style, and score with great care and creativity. A sci-fi epic. Villeneuve is helped by a rich, deep story with nice pacing,…
Full ReviewHold On (2016)
Well-shot. Definitely captures a mood, but not much of a story. Shorts can have more story than this, right? Characters and performances are authentic. Dagelet is entirely believable, and a talented musician to boot.
Full ReviewWind River (2017)
Nice little story in an exotic location. Well-made and beautifully shot, except for some needless shaky cam during some of the more emotional scenes. Casting and performances are all good, though there seems to be some occasional mumbling.
Full ReviewScott Pilgrim vs. the World (2010)
Good cast. I think this one helped make Cera an icon for our hipster generation. Lots of goofy but quick humor, whimsical editing, fun graphics, and some pretty good fight scenes. Don’t know much about the graphic stories, but this was a fun movie.
Full ReviewMechanic: Resurrection (2016)
So formulaic and cheaply made. Statham’s still cool, but his movies are really getting shitty. For an old guy, he can still move. And Alba still looks great. Michelle Yeoh is wasted. Poor Tommy Lee Jones.
Full ReviewThe Peanuts Movie (2015)
A collection of all the Peanuts plotlines over the years. Cleverly intertwined, but there’s not much story. Animation is really good, faithful to Schulz but updated with subtle 3D effects.
Full Review10 Cloverfield Lane (2016)
With the same creative team and a similar title, I thought this would be more of a sequel to Cloverfield. But while the themes and feel of the film is similar, the connection between the two stories is not really there. There is talk of a third Cloverfield film, which…
Full ReviewMore American Graffiti (1979)
Definitely a slice of the 70’s, both in its subject matter and style. The split screens, changing aspect ratios, and psychedelic animation are a bit distracting. Charles Martin Smith is kind of funny.
Full ReviewBoulevard (2014)
Williams continues plunging into darker, more psychologically introspective, more dramatically challenging roles. Why did he go in this direction? This was one of his last films. Was he sensing his own mortality? Thin story, but it’s moody, and Williams seems very comfortable there.
