“While I enjoyed Zoe Saldaña's performance, there's a problem with representation in this film about Mexico, that isn't written or directed by someone who seems to know little about the country. ” –

“It's worth remembering this astonishing bit of US history, where a young investigator took down his boss, an FBI agent named Robert Hanssen. These two men are caught between truth and lies and only one of them likes the lie. ” –

“The documentary begins with a comment that is troubling and possibly misleading about Japan. Even ignoring that quote, the documentary doesn't indicate how AUM compares to other cults of that time period in Japan or the English-speaking world. ” –

“While I love all the voices in this film, the story is lackluster and the animation, while good, is uninspired. Adding a cat might have increased the cuteness quotient but was more like a cat scratching a chalkboard. ” –

The Amateur (1981)
2/5
“This film benefited from some contemporary events, but the script is more tell than show. In 2025, a remake is much better. Still, you might want to compare the technology from 1981 to now. ” –

“Rami Malek's spy thriller has more emotional pull than most action films and is much more satisfying than the Canadian film that used the same name and source material. You might come away with two questions, but I got answers. ” –

“The best thing that can be said for this current live-action remake is there are scenes that will be a treasure trove for drag queens and fans of campy parodies at small equity-waiver theaters.” –

“Director Steven Soderbergh teams with writer David Kopek for saturated imagery and the deliciously seductive tale of betrayal. Michael Fassbender plays a devoted husband and spy who's given a list of five possible traitors that includes his wife. ” –

“During these chaotic times, this film might be just the kind of thing segments of our polarized US population are railing against yet this may give the other side a reason for hope. For me, it brought hope and I hope to see Anthony Mackie back for more.” –

MACBETH: David Tennant & Cush Jumbo (2025)
