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

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.

The film will make you laugh, even though the actions of Dick Cheney will make you angry. Especially [redacted}.

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?

Blatantly raunchy, openly ridiculous, and patently absurd. Also there are puppets.

Sometimes funny, sometimes dramatic, and always feeling like this shouldn't be based on a true story, BlacKkKlansman serves as a timely and depressing reminder that the fools of the past are still here in the present.

An odd mix of humor and awkward, Eighth Grade made me thankful that my moments of being a socially inept teenager happened before social media made us live in an always connected world where there’s pressure to show off your perfect life and hide your foibles.

By turning all the “coming-of-age” tropes sideways, Lady Bird takes what could have been a stereotypical story and makes it compelling.

Like all Pixar films, Coco will make you laugh, you’ll pretend you didn’t cry, but inevitably you will curse Disney for playing a 20-minute Frozen short before the main film.

10 years of universe building allows the filmmakers to dive deep into the crazy-silly aspects of a character and the worlds they visit, while still delivering the action and “hero fights” we expect. It has just as much Taika as you can Waititi.
Simply put: Fun.
Final Verdict: 👍
