Flatliners (2017)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - October 1st, 2017 - Movie Reviews

This Flatliners makes all of the exact same mistakes as the original, stranding its talented and attractive cast in ways that grow increasingly ridiculous as things move towards a climax.

Gook (2017)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - October 1st, 2017 - Film Festivals Movie Reviews

Gook is a very good film, sometimes a great one, and even when it stumbles and loses its way towards the end I still found myself eagerly interested to discover everything Chon’s opus was aching to show me.

American Made (2017)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - September 29th, 2017 - Movie Reviews

Seal’s story is the American Dream flipped on its head, Gary Spinelli’s sharply observant script cutting its protagonist little slack as it makes its way towards its suitably hardhearted conclusion.

Super Dark Times (2017)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - September 29th, 2017 - Movie Reviews

Super Dark Times might not earn its blood-soaked finale, but that doesn’t make what happens up to that point any less compelling, Phillips in the end proving himself to be a strong directorial talent worth keeping an eye on.

Battle of the Sexes (2017)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - September 28th, 2017 - Four-Star Corner Movie Reviews

Ignorant bullies weaponizing sexism, homophobia and racism deserve to be silenced, and whether they’re on the tennis court, inside corporate boardroom or even heaven forbid in the gosh darn White House, it’s about time we all follow Billie Jean King’s example and do whatever we can to shut them up, hopefully this time for good.

Friend Request (2016)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - September 22nd, 2017 - Movie Reviews

For all its potential, Friend Request deserves to be ignored, swiping left and forgetting about this film entirely the only course of action I can in good conscience recommend.

Kingsman: The Golden Circle (2017)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - September 22nd, 2017 - Movie Reviews

Matthew Vaughn’s Kingsman: The Golden Circle is a tone-deaf, oftentimes frustrating, frequently insulting and moderately offensive exercise in gruesome misogynistic excess that’s made almost as if to convince pubescent 13-year-old boys it’s perfectly okay to treat women as ditzy dolls and little else.

The LEGO Ninjago Movie (2017)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - September 22nd, 2017 - Movie Reviews

Like a great piece of sketch comedy, all of the numerous vignettes feeding the central storyline are so consistently amusing the fact The LEGO Ninjago Movie goes way beyond nonsensical into the realm of outright absurdity isn’t as big a problem as it might otherwise have been.

Wonder Woman (2017) (4K Ultra HD)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - September 19th, 2017 - 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray and DVD

Wonder Woman is amazing. It is filled with hope. It is filled with compassion. It is filled with kindness and love…Jenkins deserves to be applauded for bringing this hero to the screen right at the very time we needed her most, and as such creates a motion picture deserving of every single box office dollar, plaudit and award that has come its way.
