My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2 (2016)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - March 25th, 2016 - Movie Reviews

My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2 isn’t a bad sequel, it’s just a pointless one, and as such spending any additional time dissecting it further can’t help but feel like an exercise in meaningless, if still harmless, futility.

They’re Watching (2016)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - March 25th, 2016 - Movie Reviews

There’s not a lot new to any of this, and the surprising twists and turns that transpire during the final act are hardly shocking. But there is a level of quality to They’re Watching that’s a little unexpected, while all of the actors do a fairly terrific job of exploring their respective characters, at least in so much as much as the genre and storytelling dynamics allow them to.

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - March 23rd, 2016 - Movie Reviews

Snyder’s Batman v Superman is loud, obnoxious, lacking in substance and barely lucid enough to make even the slightest modicum of sense. While not the worst superhero comic book adventure ever to grace the multiplex, it’s likely the most frustratingly disappointing, it’s failure unquestionably putting Warner and DC’s future plans in jeopardy.

The Divergent Series: Allegiant (2016)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - March 18th, 2016 - Movie Reviews

While I’ve never hated any of these Divergent efforts, this latest one certainly tried my patience to an exasperating degree, Allegiant a tedious exercise in futility even fans of the series will have a hard time finding anything worthwhile to talk about once it comes to an end.

Hello, My Name Is Doris (2016)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - March 18th, 2016 - Movie Reviews

In the end, though, it is Field and Field alone who makes Hello, My Name Is Doris what it is, my affinity for the motion picture growing in leaps and bounds the more I think about her almost effortless brilliance which brings both the character, and the movie itself, to vivacious life.

Road Games (2016)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - March 17th, 2016 - Movie Reviews

[Road Games] is well structured, gorgeously shot and confidently directed, and as feature-length narrative debuts go Pastoll’s is a strong one that has me blissfully excited to see what he’s got in store for us all in the very near future.

Miracles from Heaven (2016)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - March 16th, 2016 - Movie Reviews

For a movie that was playing to everyone, to all audiences, to all viewers no matter what their background or faith, to have it suddenly blatantly preach to the converted and to the converted alone is a missed opportunity of massive proportions, making watching Miracles from Heaven at all a serious waste of time.

Rabid Dogs (2015)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - March 11th, 2016 - Movie Reviews

There is an inherent ugliness to Rabid Dogs I couldn’t help but find distasteful. It honestly drove me a little nuts, especially considering I had the primary tricks Hannezo and company had up their sleeves pegged long before they were prepared to unleash them.
