it is smart, charming and adult in the way the characters talk about their fears and insecurities, specifically surrounding relationships.

The Phoenician Scheme
It is entertaining, amusing, a little cold and has an overly complicated plot. I don’t know if this is one I’d revisit very often, but it is a decent time while it lasts.

The screenplay is not nearly as clever as it thinks it is, basically hiding its truths while treading water so that it can surprise us at the end.

Cronenberg's creativity is what leads to a movie like this feeling so disappointing as the final credits begin to roll.

Sinners
It will give opening weekend horror crowds what they are looking for (blood, gore, thrills, action and suspense). It will also give them way more.
