Little Richard: I Am Everything (2023)
94%
“The visuals in I Am Everything are the stuff of Richard’s wardrobe. You can see glittery stardust floating in, on, and around moments that are tapping into some seminal moments in Richard’s life or the life of Rock music.” –

Creed III (2023)

“Creed III is a thoroughly surprising movie. There is an attention to detail and symbolism that quite frankly has no business being as well done as it was.” –

The Matrix Resurrections (2021)

“There are moments, few and far between, that remind audiences of The Matrix that was. However, everything in Resurrections falls short of any of the passion and drive of the message synonymous with the arc of the first trilogy.” –

Capone (2020)

“The whole vibe of Capone felt like the product of a strange elevator pitch where Boardwalk Empire interior b-roll meets Shutter Island. It goes for Hitchcock and comes up so short.” –

Alita: Battle Angel (2019)
61%
“The movie checks boxes for all audiences, drives home a compelling universe with a pretty decent story, leaves a cliffhanger AND drops an F-bomb! You might not like this movie, but you will put some respect on Alita's name(Gally if you're nasty).” –

Robin Hood (2018)
14%
“All in all, a shallow take on deepening the mythos of Robin Hood that the youth of this generation can understand and see themselves reflected in. The faults are outweighed by the attempt to do something new.” –
