Causes more discomfort, not less.

Whether or not this is a good movie should be the new, "What color is this dress?"

The first time that depth eludes a filmmaker so skilled at merging entertainment with emotional weight.

The cinematic equivalent of waiting for your bread to toast, only to realize hours later you forgot to plug in the damn thing.

A really good movie you can recommend to almost no one.

Hardly an enlightened examination of modern manhood.

More likely to furrow the brow than flutter the heart.

Proof once again that director Steven Soderbergh is both fantastic at delivering crisp, efficient work but also that he's better when given time to find depth and surprise.

Once again, Clooney has delivered a movie that you will see and shrug and eventually not be entirely sure if you actually did see it when you stream it for five minutes, then doze off.

All chemistry, no clarity.

A powerful exploration of brief terror converted into an open wound.

Perhaps a biopic in which an announcer utters the line, “The Warriors have barfed their way into the championship” is less about accuracy and depth than projecting something noxious as far as it possibly can.

If you had to describe "Zola" with a serious character limit, you could just say "Florida" and move on.

The story drives the characters instead of the other way around, with numerous contrivances and questionable motivations that create doubts about the narrative rather than complexity about the walls closing in.

A lively, funny, likable movie that also serves as an unsettling metaphor for the selfish intentions of people who take no accountability and create destruction for those who engage with their tornado.

Looks at real life in America and what it would take to bail out from destruction — and if legitimate fear could rise above the noise before it’s too late.

It feels like there’s more movie fighting to get in here, and “King Richard” refuses.

The ones that made the biggest impact on me in a volatile year for the world and a somewhat more traditional year for movies.

A devastating portrait of the way things have always been done clashing with the urgency of reality, of a person against a system.
