The Cured (2017)

Thoughtfully Intriguing Cured an Emotionally Muted Zombie What-If Scenario The Maze Virus devastated Ireland. Spreading quickly, the infected almost instantaneously transformed into bloodthirsty killers who consumed the flesh of their intended victims.

Midnighters (2017)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - March 2nd, 2018 - Movie Reviews

There is a nascent nasty streak running through Midnighters that’s as hard-boiled as it is cutthroat, and it’s easy to imagine golden age stars of yesterday like Dana Andrews, Ida Lupino, Gloria Grahame or Richard Widmark in any of the central roles the two Ramsay bothers have created to reside within this particular moralistic cinematic quagmire.

Red Sparrow (2018)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - March 2nd, 2018 - Movie Reviews

Red Sparrow likely won’t jump start a new franchise, the ugly, harshly repugnant nature of things not going to sit well with a great many members of the audience, yet I still find I liked it all the same. This is a thriller I’ll be thinking about for some time to come, and I have this sneaky suspicion I’m going to be taking a second look at it sooner rather than later.

Annihilation (2018)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - February 23rd, 2018 - Movie Reviews

Allowing Portman the freedom to deliver a performance that shifts and evolves like the landscape she is investigating, Annihilation is a piece of science fiction cinematic wonderment I’ll have trouble forgetting, it’s ultimate destination one of self-inflicted humanistic absolution worthy of additional examination.

A Fantastic Woman (2017)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - February 23rd, 2018 - Four-Star Corner Movie Reviews

A Fantastic Woman dives into the Transgender experience in a way that is refreshing in its subtle, naturalistic simplicity, Marina’s everyday struggle to unapologetically be herself achieving a dignified universality that’s all-encompassing in its sympathetic warmth.

Game Night (2018)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - February 23rd, 2018 - Movie Reviews

Game Night is a heck of a lot of fun, and even if the movie might overstay its welcome, for the most part I had a terrific time sitting in the theatre watching things play out to their ridiculously cheery conclusion.

Double Lover (2017)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - February 16th, 2018 - Movie Reviews

Double Lover is a gripping descent into the psychological abyss, the discoveries waiting to be found there captivatingly vast.
