Under Paris (2024)
63%
“It unfolds like a fairly classy suspense film about a rarely seen threat. It does not look cheap in the way Sharknado did, for instance. It’s quite competently shot and edited, it’s tense, and it’s frightening. In other words, it gets the job done.” –

“I think they set it in this very specific world of art, which, even if it's not entirely accurate, it's specific. So within its own world, it feels developed.” –

“The issue with Don't Worry Darling is that it creates a beautiful lock and a perfectly passable key, but when you put the key in the lock, it doesn't quite turn. You don't get that satisfying click.” –

Cinderella (2021)
