Movie ****+ Avengers – Infinity War (2018)

rmann May 2, 2018 May 27, 2018Movie and Book Reviews 0

One of the better Marvel releases, nearly up to the level of Doctor Strange and the first Guardians of the Galaxy. Finally, Thanos has a character (not a very nice one, but at least not a cutout villain).

Movie ***** Isle of Dogs (2018)

Groundbreaking, fun story with many surprising choices that all seemed to work together to produced something unusually entertaining, like translating the dogs barks, but not the people speaking Japanese.

Lisa Cron’s non-fiction writer’s guide on the brain science of hooking readers. Best writing book I’ve read for explaining what reader’s need to keep them hooked.

Excellent addition to the Star Wars films. More story and character interest than other recent offerings.

Solo ropes me in…

Interactive is reaching a new level.

Jason Matthews top-notch spy thriller of Russian and American operatives recruiting each other under the watchful eyes of their KGB and CIA bosses. The damaged Russian ballerina of the title was particularly well drawn as the main protagonist.

Well-made sequel, but like most sequels – more of the same.ell-made sequel, but like most sequels – more of the same.

Movie ***+ Ready Player One (2018)

Good attempted screen adaptation of a great book. Almost pulled it off.

Movie **+ A Wrinkle in Time (2018)

Beautifully filmed version of one of my favorite stories, but sadly the child actors were not the focus for the writers, casting, directing, or editing and the magic that should have been there was missed.
