Stitch Head
It is a goofy little movie with charming animation, some tonal issues and a few amusing jokes. It is totally harmless, good-natured and completely forgettable.

Elio
It is an enjoyable movie, entertaining and well-made. They can’t all be classics. Sometimes you just need something that is a pleasant use of an hour-and-a-half.

Dog Man
A goofy, gag-a-second, very cartoony, animated comedy that is a ton of fun for, as they say, the young and the young at heart.

Moana 2
This is a sequel that pales in comparison to the original simply because we’ve already seen the original.

Ghost Cat Anzu
The eccentricity got boring after a while, which is a shame because the artwork is so inviting.

Memoir of a Snail
There can be an unreal beauty to stop-motion when done right. Writer/director Adam Elliot has definitely done it right.

Transformers One
While it certainly didn’t reignite my childhood passion for this property, it is a reasonably enjoyable watch.

Inside Out 2
The classic era of Pixar, where everything they made was gold, is probably gone for good. However, they still make solid entertainment.

The Boy and the Heron
It is touching, thought-provoking and, if this does prove to be the final cinematic treat we receive from this legend, a worthy goodbye.

The Tunnel to Summer, the Exit of Goodbyes
Uncomplicated, simple, enjoyable, engaging, heartwarming and just plain likable, with moments of true beauty.
