Beckett
Take away any personality and you have the story of a guy running around Greece while bleeding. It is about as entertaining as it sounds.

The Suicide Squad
While still flawed, The Suicide Squad is a huge improvement. It knows what it wants to be and has fun with its premise.

Space Jam: A New Legacy
By the end, it was a little much; still, seeing the Looney Tunes doing their thing again almost made the onslaught of Warner IP worth it.

Gunpowder Milkshake
How it plays will depend on how you feel about style over substance amid straight-faced ridiculousness. I found it to be pretty fun.

It is a long, dull slog through cliché after cliché, with obvious setups, poorly executed payoffs and loud noises in place of tension.

No Sudden Move
No Sudden Move is a smart, crafty, entertaining thriller with an excellent cast.

False Positive
Even though it doesn’t ultimately work, this is entertaining and suspenseful, with an intriguing take on its subject matter.

Good on Paper
When I think of its pieces, Good on Paper seems like an easy recommendation. Yet the whole isn’t as good as the sum of its best parts.

Luca
While it certainly belongs on the lower end of the studio’s filmography, it is still amusing and generally enjoyable.

In the Heights
It is hard for me to think of a word that describes In the Heights better than “joyous.” Maybe “celebratory?”
