Operation Avalanche (2016)

2.5/4
“There's something about "Operation Avalanche" that feels somewhat unsatisfying when all is said and done. The idea is a good one, but the ending feels more standard than the beginning.” –

2.5/4
“It's a movie with problems, but it also leaves you feeling somewhat inspired, and reminds you that sometimes, still, people can come together and make the world a slightly better place.” –

“It's far too easy to become overwrought and syrupy, and while the new movie has a lot going for it, it does eventually succumb to those watery depths.” –

“Make no mistake, this is no "Raging Bull." But it's a perfectly serviceable biopic and boxing movie whose cast says something about the social changes afoot in this nation.” –

Southside With You (2016)

3/4
“It's charming, sweet and smart, and it isn't loaded with destiny. Tanne, in his first feature, has found a way to make his point by barely making it at all.” –
