As my friend declared as we were leaving the theater: “That was a pretty good movie for having no plot.”

Bohemian Rhapsody is fun, but Rocketman is something greater — It is both fun and executed with something resembling competence.

The audience that would appreciate this film the most is the very same audience that would know everything wrong with the story they wanted to tell.

In my review for Avengers: Infinity War, I said:
“Ten years of hard work pays off.”
I was wrong. This is the payoff.

Calling this an average Marvel movie undersells the film itself and the overall quality of Marvel’s output over the past decade.
It’s wonderful to have a film where Carol’s struggles being a woman in the 1990s help hone her into who she is, but don’t define her as a character.

Prior to Spider-Man: Into the Spider-verse, I felt that only one animated film came anywhere close to the storytelling prowess of Disney and Pixar: How to Train Your Dragon.
The Hidden World lives up to that standard.

A manga in cinema form. Depending on your tastes, that can be a great thing – or not.

Like all Oscar bait, the film settles for being safe, predictable. feel-good drivel. So while you will walk out of the theater knowing you watched a good film, at the same time you know it’s not a great one.

Yes, it’s Oscar-bait. But it’s nice to watch RBG kick some A-S-S.

Absolutely stellar performances from Saoirse Ronan and Margot Robbie.
Yet the “history class set to fast-forward” pace of the narrative is ultimately the undoing of the film. We’ve been spoiled by the slow pace of television where political intrigue can unfold over time.

What I find most interesting about the film is the fact that there is no villain. Just some misguided people doing some evil things because they think they are on the side of god.

The film raises more questions than it answers.
The Stormtroopers look cool. Why haven’t they let Dave Filoni loose upon Disney Animation?
Where is my Avengers-esque Disney Princess Team-Up Movie?

I wish that Rowling had written novels instead. Then she could include every intricate detail and plot. Instead we get Fantastic Beasts, where there’s so much going on that the story and world can’t stop and breathe. Rowling’s storytelling is being encumbered by a medium with a runtime.
