The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent
Over-the-top Cage is the best Cage. Massive Talent is at its best when it leans into the goofiness of its concept.

Everything Everywhere All at Once
It is about nothing less than the joy to be found in an ordinary life. Here is a word to describe it: delightful.

Turning Red
Turning Red may not quite be top shelf Pixar, but it is a pretty good example of what they do better than everybody else.

Vacation Friends
The formula is fine, the cast is game, yet the movie isn’t very funny.

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.

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.

Plan B
It is sweet and funny, with a charming central relationship and a message it delivers organically.

Bad Trip
While I didn’t laugh much, the concept is fairly well done, even if the movie as a whole isn't good enough to recommend.
