20th Century Women (2016) 88% 3/4 “A funny, complicated burst of joy, confusion and melancholy.” – RedEye Jan 12, 2017 Full Review Patriots Day (2016) 80% 3/4 “Though Patriots Day is plagued by the requisite cheese, it remains remarkably apolitical, preferring to present a black and white battle of good vs. evil rather than muddle in the complicated shades of gray.” – RedEye Jan 12, 2017 Full Review Fences (2016) 92% 3/4 “Unsurprisingly, the cast is magnificent.” – RedEye Dec 23, 2016 Full Review Hidden Figures (2016) 93% 3/4 “Hidden Figures does a remarkable job demonstrating that women may all want different things but all desire opportunity.” – RedEye Dec 20, 2016 Full Review Passengers (2016) 30% 2.5/4 “As expected, Lawrence and Pratt are fantastic together -- funny and believable and warm. It's easy to root for them despite the problematic nature of their meeting.” – RedEye Dec 20, 2016 Full Review Rogue One: A Star Wars Story (2016) 84% 3/4 “A fun ride that repeats the Star Wars legacy without really adding to it.” – RedEye Dec 15, 2016 Full Review Miss Sloane (2016) 76% 3/4 “An engrossing and beautifully acted meditation on how broken our political system is, Miss Sloane forgoes intelligence for intrigue.” – RedEye Dec 9, 2016 Full Review Office Christmas Party (2016) 41% 2/4 “The cast is great, but the laughs are inconsistent and the plot is as flimsy as a Charlie Brown Christmas tree.” – RedEye Dec 7, 2016 Full Review Rules Don't Apply (2016) 56% 2/4 “Rules Don't Apply is not without its merits -- namely, Collins and Ehrenreich -- but it turns its attention away from things that matter toward things that don't.” – RedEye Dec 1, 2016 Full Review Bleed for This (2016) 70% 2/4 “Hits all the marks you expect, but with few surprises and a protagonist that doesn't inspire empathy, Bleed for This doesn't go very far.” – RedEye Nov 17, 2016 Full Review Nocturnal Animals (2016) 74% 2/4 “A sexy thriller that is neither sexy nor thrilling.” – RedEye Nov 17, 2016 Full Review The Edge of Seventeen (2016) 94% 3.5/4 “Let The Edge of Seventeen remind you in a very real way that adolescence is painful and awkward but also universal in the sense that we all go through it. No one comes out unscathed.” – RedEye Nov 17, 2016 Full Review Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them (2016) 74% 3/4 “It's not Hogwarts, but Rowling still has some magic in her.” – RedEye Nov 16, 2016 Full Review Arrival (2016) 94% 3.5/4 “The real triumph of Arrival, though, is its commitment to the complexity of time and language.” – RedEye Nov 11, 2016 Full Review Loving (2016) 88% 2.5/4 “Loving has a big, powerful story at its fingertips but only scratches the surface of telling it.” – RedEye Nov 11, 2016 Full Review Hacksaw Ridge (2016) 84% 3/4 “There are a lot of war films, but Hacksaw Ridge feels unique in its dogged pacifism.” – RedEye Nov 2, 2016 Full Review Moonlight (2016) 98% 4/4 “Moonlight is incredible -- poetic, haunting, gorgeous, ambitious.” – RedEye Oct 27, 2016 Full Review American Pastoral (2016) 24% 2.5/4 “Gorgeously dark with heartbreaking moments, American Pastoral isn't smart enough to have the prestige factor it's clearly going for.” – RedEye Oct 20, 2016 Full Review The Accountant (2016) 53% 3/4 “Much better than you expect it to be, The Accountant is a fun time despite its weaknesses.” – RedEye Oct 12, 2016 Full Review The Girl on the Train (2016) 44% 2/4 “This movie is just a faux-prestigious, underwhelming murder mystery. I've seen less obvious episodes of Law and Order: SVU.” – RedEye Oct 6, 2016 Full Review The Birth of a Nation (2016) 72% 3/4 “The Birth of a Nation is a moving, angry film that directly ties history to the current atmosphere of the country. With a little more focus, it could have harnessed its blind burst of rage.” – RedEye Oct 6, 2016 Full Review Masterminds (2016) 34% 2/4 “McKinnon is wasted, Wilson is unconvincing as a hick and the whole film takes a very condescending view of people with low incomes.” – RedEye Sep 29, 2016 Full Review Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children (2016) 65% 2.5/4 “Even if you're willing to forgive the film's tendency to retread well-known paths, Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children falls apart in its final act.” – RedEye Sep 29, 2016 Full Review Goat (2016) 79% 3/4 “Effective and jarring, Goat is a tough pill to swallow, but that's the point.” – RedEye Sep 23, 2016 Full Review The Magnificent Seven (2016) 64% 2.5/5 “All the efforts to modernize the Western feel half-baked at best, like slapping one coat of paint on a crumbling house.” – RedEye Sep 22, 2016 Full Review
