Worth seeing simply because it’s different - not weird, off-the-wall different, but different in a good way.

Run Time: 1:28
U.S. Release Date: 2018-06-22
MPAA Rating: "NR" (Sexual Content, Profanity, Violence)
Genre: Thriller
Director: Jason Saltiel
Cast: Willa Fitzgerald, Murray Bartlett, Orlagh Cassidy, Tom Hammond

Between the solid beginning and the great ending, there’s a long, unremarkable stretch enlivened only by the efforts of the actors and the lens of the cinematographer.

Run Time: 1:46
U.S. Release Date: 2018-02-09
MPAA Rating: "NR"
Genre: Musical/Romance/Comedy
Director: Dan Baron
Cast: Brie Larson, Utkarsh Ambudkar, Scott Bakula, Saahil Sehgal, Tyne Daly, Donald Sutherland

A forgettable merging of a fish-out-of-water story with a cross-cultural romance, this musical lacks personality.

There are moments of pathos and deft comedy but, overall, "Before We Vanish" is overlong, poorly paced, and scattershot.

Run Time: 2:20
U.S. Release Date: 2017-11-03
MPAA Rating: "R" (Extreme Violence)
Genre: Action/Fantasy
Director: Takashi Miike
Cast: Takuya Kimura, Hana Sugisaki, Sota Fukushi, Hyato Ichihara, Erika Toda

Although a little too long, this bottled adrenaline delivers the kind of jolt that will excite action/samurai fans.

A plot-by-numbers sit-com movie that tries hard (perhaps too hard) to reproduce the elements that made its predecessor successful.

MPAA Rating: "PG-13" (Adult Themes)
Genre: Drama

Has moments of emotional resonance but the overall experience feels flat and familiar.

Run Time: 1:35

MPAA Rating: "R" (Violence, Profanity, Sexual Content)
Genre: Thriller
Director: Lucky McKee
Cast: John Cusack, Ellar Coltrane, Willa Fitzgerald, Jacob Artist

Despite the "Deliverance" vibe that permeates the production, "Blood Money" delivers a bit more.

Science fiction that rivets the attention, excites the imagination, and engages the mind.

Disappointingly shallow and superficial, recreating events from an earlier era as the Hollywood of today would like them to be remembered.
