2067 (2020) (Blu-ray)
by Sara Michelle Fetters - November 17th, 2020 - Blu-ray and DVD2067 is aggressively underwhelming, and even though writer/director Seth Larney makes the most of his limited budget, this is one science fiction adventure I’d rather have avoided going on.

The Invisible Man (2020)
by Sara Michelle Fetters - February 28th, 2020 - Movie ReviewsThe Invisible Man is next-level stuff that signifies his arrival as a talented storyteller who has an innate ability to take seemingly tired concepts and ideas and make them feel original and contemporary.

Spider-Man: Far from Home (2019)
by Sara Michelle Fetters - July 2nd, 2019 - Movie ReviewsThe fun of Spider-Man: Far from Home is watching the younger members of its cast agreeably interact with one another, and if the actual heroic parts of the tale could have generated maybe a third of that same intoxicating ebullience maybe I’d have found this latest MCU effort to be a bit more memorable.

Men in Black: International (2019)
by Sara Michelle Fetters - June 13th, 2019 - Movie ReviewsAt almost two full hours, Men in Black: International trudges along with almost no interest in getting to its destination with anything approaching haste.

Dark Phoenix (2019)
by Sara Michelle Fetters - June 6th, 2019 - Movie ReviewsIt’s moderately exasperating how things eventually play themselves out, and while I appreciate the risks Kinberg and his team are taking with Dark Phoenix, and while I was rooting for the film’s success even when I could see it falling annoying off the rails, this climactic journey of the X-Men just didn’t do it for me.

Tarantula (1955)
by Sara Michelle Fetters - May 7th, 2019 - Blu-ray and DVDI love Jack Arnold’s Tarantula. It makes me smile. While not exactly up to the high standards set by THEM! or Godzilla, the movie is a smart, well-crafted giant monster yarn that features a handful of engaging performances and one killer titular creature.
