Powerful without being overbearing, emphasizing the nonsensical aspects of war without dragging the viewer into the trenches and burying him/her in mud.

Although the film’s heart is in the right place, there are times when it misses the mark as a fully fleshed-out biography.

"Mary Poppins Returns" is an imperfect sequel but as a throw-away holiday film designed to provide a family viewing experience, it satisfies a need.

As shepherded by filmmakers with a penchant for visual storytelling, "Mortal Engines" is two hours well-spent.

Mad scientists overwhelmed by hubris are nothing new but no iteration of the story has been told in quite this way.

It may peter out on the way to an anticlimactic conclusion but it’s fun while it lasts and the three peerless female leads deserve recognition.
