Those who see "Nope" might not get exactly what they’re expecting but they may enjoy it anyway.

There’s a time and a place for mayhem, and that’s essentially what "Bullet Train" is: two hours of fights, carnage, and witty repartee.

U.S. Home Release Date: 2022-10-18
MPAA Rating: "PG-13" (Profanity, Intense Peril)
Genre: Thriller
Director: Scott Mann
Cast: Grace Fulton

As B-movies go, this one is good enough to hold the attention and wring out the tension without doing anything more ambitious.

It’s Agatha Christie crossed with "Euphoria," and mostly works as both a slasher murder mystery and a drug/alcohol-fueled Gen Z soap opera.

MPAA Rating: "R" (Violence, Profanity)

This is first and foremost a thriller/horror movie that trades in tension and suspense both of the slow-boil kind and the more traditional form.

MPAA Rating: "PG-13" (Violence)

Worth watching only for those with an insatiable curiosity to see how the iconic character was imagined 21 years prior to being deemed ready for a significant budget.

Has a free-spirited sense of fun and mischief that allows the viewer to uncover something more enjoyable than the monotonous sameness of the CGI overload.

Director: B.J. Novak
Cast: B.J. Novak, Boyd Holbrook, Ashton Kutcher, Issa Rae, J. Smith-Cameron, Melissa Chambers, Lio Tipton

Flawed but fresh, Novak's feature got me to laugh with him and at him while taking the story seriously and becoming involved in its quirks and twists.

MPAA Rating: "PG"

It features enough eye candy to keep most kids engaged and boasts just enough heft that adults won’t spend 100 minutes looking at their watches.

At times frustrating and at times exuberant, the movie is effective in capturing both the triumph and tragedy of the title character’s life.
