Mary Reviews
It's a watery tale of supernatural nonsense at sea as lost and immobile as a beached mackerel.
| Original Score: 1/4 | Oct 14, 2019
Oldman and Mortimer play the drama in "Mary" well. Too bad they don't get much chance to play the horror.

Mary's concept -- and it's a good one! -- doesn't blossom into the truly spooky, the truly eerie, even though it's given countless chances to do so.
| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Oct 11, 2019
Hopefully Gary Oldman got himself a nice boat with his paycheck, because otherwise "Mary" is out to sea.

It would... take a sleuth of Hercule Poirot-like talents to discern what attracted these supremely talented (not to mention, in the case of one of them, Oscar-winning) thespians to such lame, cliched material.

Instead of a floating hell... this Mary feels more like a barnacle-encrusted prison.

This tale of nautical terror is one leaky vessel, despite veteran cinematographer Michael Goi's professionally competent direction and a cast well-equipped to handle more challenging, as well as more intelligent, material.

The Anthony Jaswinski screenplay, besides giving the actors no characters whatsoever to play, is also overly familiar.
| Original Score: 1.5/5 | Oct 9, 2019
The whole film plays like an extended non sequitur.

Mary comes to feel as if lacks a through line, collapsing into a series of disconnected horror-movie beats.
