We’re All Going to the World’s Fair (2021)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - April 20th, 2022 - Film Festivals Movie Reviews

Themes revolving around personal self-discovery are universal in their eerie effectiveness, and there were multiple moments where I saw myself in the main character, a quiet shiver cascading down my spine every time.

Dune (2021) (4K Ultra HD)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - January 25th, 2022 - 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray and DVD

Dune is a technical marvel, and Warner’s 4K presentation of Denis Villeneuve’s ambitious adaptation of roughly the first half of Frank Herbert’s novel is undeniably impressive.

Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - December 15th, 2021 - Movie Reviews

The last third of Spider-Man: No Way Home is excellent. There is some wonderful closure for a few characters who never got any in their previous appearances, while this version of Peter Parker gets some agency largely disconnected from the rest of Earth’s mightiest heroes.

Encanto (2021)

Encanto earns its tears, this aria to familial togetherness a loving concerto of community I’d happily hum along with whenever the opportunity to do so might arise.

Ghostbusters: Afterlife (2021)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - November 17th, 2021 - Movie Reviews

Ghostbusters: Afterlife makes more good calls than bad, and for some viewers, when there’s something strange going on in the neighborhood, giving this legacy sequel a look might be the way to go.

Jungle Cruise (2021) (Blu-ray)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - November 16th, 2021 - Blu-ray and DVD

Jungle Cruise does work better at home. It’s kind of the perfect watch-while-folding-laundry movie. I guess that’s a recommendation.

Eternals (2021)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - November 3rd, 2021 - Movie Reviews

Eternals shoots for the stars, and if the finished feature isn’t quite out of this world, it’s still close enough to getting there that my interest in seeing where these characters go next is exceedingly high.

This Dune, for all its technical virtuosity, is stranded in an emotionally barren desert.

Lamb (2021)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - October 8th, 2021 - Movie Reviews

Valdimar Jóhannsson’s feature-length debut Lamb is one of the more captivatingly daft, yet oddly heartbreaking, motion pictures I’ve seen this year.
