[The Land] is visually dynamic, moves with electric urgency and treats all four of its young protagonists with intelligence and respect. More than that, Caple offers up a conclusion that satisfactorily strays extremely far from the status quo, giving things an aura of originality all other facets of the narrative and the scenario undeniably lack.

But the studio’s continued mishandling of these characters is just plain baffling at this point, Suicide Squad potentially even more of a disaster than Batman v Superman ended up proving to be. While that’s not entirely accurate, that doesn’t mean the movie is safe from condemnation, and as misfires go this is one comic book debacle Warner Bros and DC are going to have a hell of a time trying to recover from.

I can’t help but feel like Bad Moms could have worked, that the seeds lurking in the heart of Lucas and Moore’s script aren’t nearly as rotten as I’m probably making them out to be. I just don’t think the pair had the ability or the desire to invest themselves as fully into the plights, concerns and lives of the characters that they had created, more interested in delivering Hangover-style yucks inside a female-driven scenario.

But the longer I think on Jason Bourne the more it starts to upset me.

As nice as certain components might be, as solid as the performances universally are, Nerve simply doesn’t work, making it just another cinematic missed opportunity residing in a summertime multiplex already overflowing in them.

Saunders and Lumley are still challenging convention, making people stand up and take notice of what is going on and why, and I salute them for that without any reservation whatsoever. I just wish Absolutely Fabulous: The Movie itself did more than play so blatantly to the fan base, because had it broadened its appeal and its reach just a little bit more, it’s quite possible we could have had something amazing here to be talking about.

I’m just about done giving them a chance, and the next time this gaggle of crazy critters ambles back on-screen I think I’ll choose to stay home.

I’m not going to make any statements proclaiming Lights Out to be anything more than what it is. At the same time, that doesn’t make this nifty little horror opus any less wonderful.

Star Trek Beyond accelerates to warp speed and never looks back…This is a good movie, possibly even a great one, proving without a shadow of a doubt that Roddenberry’s baby is going to continue to live long and prosper for many happy years to come.
