The Happytime Murders

A review in 11 words:

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

BlacKkKlansman

A review in 36 words:

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.

Murder on the Orient Express

A review in 30 words:

While solid performances from the cast and the twists of a murder mystery keep you engaged, the film’s climax is underwhelming and relegates the film to the realm of mediocrity.
