60 Minutes Later: Oh. Oh, god….

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.

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.

Is it as good as the original? No. Is it another Pixar sequel that didn't need to happen? Debatable. Is it worth seeing Elastigirl kick ass? Yes.

While at times a joy to watch, the film’s narrative never rises above being an indulgent piece of fan fiction.

Ryan Cooglar delivers a film that is not only a delight to watch, but one with an emotional core and political commentary that you wouldn’t expect to find in a Marvel film.

While deeply flawed—its tone and comedic sensibilities better suited for Marvel rather than Star Wars— The Last Jedi is what we needed. It challenged our understanding of the galaxy, affirmed that you can come from nothing and still be a hero, declared that The Force belongs to us all.

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.

A somewhat entertaining but mediocre film. If you are a fan of DC’s animated work, you might find it enjoyable enough to be worth the money spent on a ticket. If you aren’t a DC fan and want to see a movie this weekend, go see Thor. Ragnarok instead.

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.
