Frantz (2016)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - April 4th, 2017 - Four-Star Corner Movie Reviews

By the time it comes to an end, Frantz has made a permanent imprint, the hope for a better tomorrow after a cataclysmic yesterday striking chords of promise that make even the harshest of injuries feel as if they someday can be healed.

The Boss Baby (2017)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - March 31st, 2017 - Movie Reviews

The Boss Baby is hardly terrible. It has moments of wit and ingenuity that are undeniably impressive, and with Baldwin reveling in playing a character so obviously in his wheelhouse I can’t say the picture is entirely devoid of laughs. That being so, I still did not enjoy watching this motion picture and, more to the point, I can’t imagine many others doing enthusiastic backflips over it. It just isn’t all that good, and honestly I don’t have anything additional I feel like adding.

Ghost in the Shell (2017)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - March 31st, 2017 - Movie Reviews

But there are so many boneheaded creative mistakes watching them smack one into the other with such ghastly consistency frankly boggles the mind. Ghost in the Shell is a stupefying failure that’s close to unforgivable, its apparent inability to understand what it gets wrong and why a perplexing mystery even Major herself wouldn’t be able to solve.

The Zookeeper’s Wife (2017)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - March 31st, 2017 - Movie Reviews

The Zookeeper’s Wife is excellent, the Zabinski’s story an important lesson in heroism that proves to be as entertainingly compelling as it is fascinatingly essential.

Life (2017)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - March 24th, 2017 - Movie Reviews

This screenplay is shockingly dumb, there’s just no other way to put it, Life more akin to a low budget ‘80s Roger Corman schlock sci-fi knockoff than it comes close to resembling a Ridley Scott or John Carpenter genre classic.

T2 Trainspotting (2017)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - March 24th, 2017 - Movie Reviews

T2 Trainspotting is a fine reunion, and while the punk portion might not be as raucous as it once was, that doesn’t mean these four men have forgotten how to rock one tiny little bit.

Wolves (2016)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - March 24th, 2017 - Movie Reviews

Wolves shoots way too many air balls, its inability to find the basket making this dramatic teenage hoop dream nothing short of an emotionally deflated basketball nightmare.

The Belko Experiment (2017)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - March 17th, 2017 - Movie Reviews

While Gunn and McLean don’t rewrite the company handbook, they still do a good enough job bullet pointing the important stuff to make reading it worthwhile, The Belko Experiment a corporate retreat of butchery and slaughter that takes team building to a heretofore unexplored level of a skull-crushing commitment.
