Ebert Did It Better: Gasbag Reviews
Movies / Music / Television Etc…
The filmmakers get credit for trying something new, even if that effort doesn’t quite make the end result more fulfilling. It just makes something similar, but not quite the same as we’re used to seeing every Christmas.
The cast, director and writers all work to express a respect for the material.
Lucky viewers will get to see the film as a kid and enjoy it once more when they’re older.
Bullet Train is perhaps the most fun you will have dodging blood splatter this summer.
If you take this film as a Gosling vehicle, and you won’t be disappointed. If you think of it as the Russo’s and Evans’ followup to their magnificent MCU films, you may be left wanting.
It’s a beacon of acting light that could only be ruined by making a sequel.
Natalie Portman was the least appealing aspect of the first two Thor films. When she was not in on the third film, the series completely hit its stride for the first time. Now she’s back. Will it kill the vibe in the room that Taika Waititi brought with him for Ragnorok?
If you have any appreciation for the journey or even just the incredible skill of Bullock, give The Lost City your time.
In Almost Famous, we have all problems wrapped up in a nice little bow with not much more than smiles to remember. There should have at least been some sort of venerial disease as a result of all that messing around.
The Adam Project is a good diversion if you are home looking for something to explode on screen just a little and warm your heart a little more.
There are no surprises. Just misery in waiting.
Two films for those who need horrid stories for Christmas.
This is a brief tale that lacks any amount of pretension that might be present in a longer film.
From the classic original to the classic 2021 sequel, there’s some good stuff and bad in between.
Great is still great, no matter the age.
