“Thankfully, MacMahon’s profile of the band is so seamlessly crafted and engaging that you might not miss the dirty details of the band’s personal lives, instead surrendering to the film’s primary subject: the music. ” –

“Although the film lacks the dramatic thrust and discernible character arc of Mangold's other biopic, Walk the Line, it's still an engrossing examination of talent and the pitfalls of fame. ” –

A Real Pain (2024)

“Although Benji’s slight characterization keeps the movie from reaching any kind of transcendence, it’s still a crisply paced and ultimately embracing journey into history, pain, and how we contextualize those things in our daily existence.” –

“Bartlett’s debut is definitely affected, absurd and at times clownish, but it’s never dull. And, if you’re willing to bathe in this Tennessee swamp instead of sprinting to the showers, you’ll find that Bartlett actually has a point of view.” –

Poor Things (2023)

“Poor Things is an audaciously alive and wicked affair whose success mostly rests on the shoulders of its heroine. Emma Stone’s performance is so outlandishly brash but deceptively internal, it will be remembered for years.” –

The Passenger (2023)

“There are simply too many scenes with Benson pointing a gun at people and yelling, “Shut the f— up!” After a while, it feels rote and rehashed in a movie that was anything but up to that point. Even with the road bumps, it’s a thrilling ride overall.” –

“Ultimately, King on Screen is an amusing profile of an American treasure, but it’s simply not as intricate or intense as it should be. The man himself will surely be charmed by the film as it features his colleagues and friends paying homage.” –
