Songbird (2020)

Publish Date: December 10, 2020
"[Michael Bay] produced the film, but it’s as flawed and cluttered as anything he’s directed"

Polygon
The Midnight Sky (2020)

Publish Date: December 9, 2020
"The astronaut-drama stuff isn’t top-tier within the recent annual tradition of sending stars to the stars, but it does the job"

AV Club
The Prom (2020)

Publish Date: December 1, 2020
"Insufferable (...) Long after Murphy’s film drops its cutesy cynicism, it still manages to accidentally produce a damning indictment of Broadway phoniness."

AV Club
Let Him Go (2020)

Publish Date: November 2, 2020
"While it’s hard to shake the awareness that the whole movie exists to set up violent catharsis, it’s hard to deny that it has just enough sadness and regret to back it up."

AV Club
Books of Blood (2020)

Publish Date: October 7, 2020
"[It] resembles a 1980s horror anthology like 'Cat’s Eye', only with more narrative ambition and less overall spooky-story satisfaction (...) [It] floats around in that mysterious netherworld between television and film"

Polygon
Ted Lasso (TV Series) (2020)

Publish Date: August 10, 2020
"What makes 'Ted Lasso' both so warm and so funny is that Lasso is a ceaseless cheerleader who so steadfastly avoids negativity (...) that he appears blithely unfazed by his team’s lack of wins."

AV Club
An American Pickle (2020)

Publish Date: August 3, 2020
"Rogen’s comedies have often layered broad laughs with humanity and thematic ambition. Here, like Herschel and Ben, they aren’t especially convincing sharing the frame."

AV Club
Amulet (2020)

Publish Date: July 24, 2020
"Garai's debut feature is a strange and murky experience (...) 'Amulet' attempts to yoke together serious drama with over-the-top genre satisfaction. Instead, it winds up tying itself in unsatisfying knots"

Polygon
The Last Days of American Crime (2020)

Publish Date: June 5, 2020
"When guns aren’t firing and tires aren’t screeching, the screenplay is a stew of garbled dialogue (...) questionable metaphors (...) and ham-fisted commentary"

AV Club
Coffee & Kareem (2020)

Publish Date: April 3, 2020
"'Coffee & Kareem' is laziness masquerading as irreverence (...) [It] makes a real mess at its own intersections, with unnecessary complications and bizarre excuses"

AV Club
Home Before Dark (TV Series) (2020)

Publish Date: March 31, 2020
"Considering that 'Home Before Dark' is, for the most part, terribly written on a scene-to-scene level, its central mystery does offer a compelling baseline for the season. "

AV Club
The Invisible Man (2020)

Publish Date: February 25, 2020
The Invisible Man is striking and tense, but not exactly rich (...) Moss, though, classes things up considerably"

AV Club
The Turning (2020)

Publish Date: January 22, 2020
"In a movie as utterly lost as 'The Turning', everything from the performances to the production design to the music cues amount to one big pile of dirty mirrors and doll parts."

AV Club
Spies in Disguise (2019)

Publish Date: December 16, 2019
"The movie will be too intense for some smaller children, while plenty of older kids will likely prefer the more genuine thrills of Marvel or DC pictures"

AV Club
The Good Liar (2019)

Publish Date: November 13, 2019
"Instead of deepening his material, Condon has made an unsuccessful fling of a movie: fun for a while, but trying to get as far as it can by leaving crucial material off of its profile."

AV Club
Playing with Fire (2019)

Publish Date: November 7, 2019
"The John Cena comedy Playing With Fire knows as little about kids as its fireman heroes"

AV Club
Terminator: Dark Fate (2019)

Publish Date: October 22, 2019
"Though 'Dark Fate' gets more engaging as it goes on (...) its sci-fi ideas mostly amount to a listless skimming of hot-button issues."

AV Club
Maleficent: Mistress of Evil (2019)

Publish Date: October 15, 2019
"Maleficent in the flesh turns out to be far more inert than her animated counterpart."

AV Club
Low Tide (2019)

Publish Date: September 30, 2019
"'Low Tide' is mostly a genre exercise. But it’s a disciplined, rigorously entertaining one."

AV Club
Brian Banks (2018)

Publish Date: August 6, 2019
"This is a movie that seems utterly convinced that it’s saying something profound, but proves difficult to actually parse (...) It’s a little schematic, but then, no one in the movie is allowed to show much personality"
