“Hollow cash grab” is one way to describe "The Grinch." Equally appropriate would be “soulless abomination.”

"Gringo" is messy and at times incoherent, filled with pointless subplots and confounding “twists.”

This is the sequel "Halloween" fans have been awaiting for four decades as the slow-burn terrors of 1978 reach out across the years to shock and frighten a new generation.

The transgressive element is edgy and at times amusing, but it wears thin quickly.

Although race is a critical element of the production’s DNA, this is first and foremost the story of a remarkable young woman.

Director: Ari Aster
Cast: Toni Collette, Gabriel Byrne, Alex Wolff, Milly Shapiro, Ann Dowd

Poorly constructed endings can leave an unpleasant aftertaste even for movies that are otherwise mostly solid. That’s the case here.

With its flashy action sequences and Tarantino-wannabe vibe, the movie tries hard to be hip and edgy but ends up simply being uneven.

MPAA Rating: "PG" (Disturbing Images, Violence)
Genre: Fantasy
Director: Eli Roth
Cast: Jack Black, Cate Blanchett, Owen Vaccaro, Kyle MacLachlan, Renee Elise Goldsberry, Sunny Suljic

Seemingly made with the under-10 crowd in mind, the screenplay doesn’t bother to entice or interest any parents who might be in the audience.

The idiotic ending doesn’t redeem the uneven middle portion. The film's biggest problem is identified by the title.

An affectionate but unremarkable biography of lyricist/writer Howard Ashman, who was in large part responsible for Disney's early-'90s renaissance.
