Movie ****+ Avengers: Endgame (2019)

Long but satisfactory continuation of the killer downer of the prior film. Characters bits seem more balanced and the audience responded.

Movie * High Life (2017)

rmann April 16, 2019 June 12, 2019Movie and Book Reviews 0

Terrible excuse for a science fiction movie, getting all the science and all of the fiction wrong. A manned mission to the event horizon of a black hole??? Enough said.

Movie **** Lean on Pete (2017)

rmann April 15, 2019 June 12, 2019Movie and Book Reviews 0

Odd story of a neglected boy befriending an unwanted horse and trying to find a home for himself.

Movie ****+ Shazzam (2019)

rmann April 10, 2019 June 12, 2019Movie and Book Reviews 0

Totally fun origin movie on the original Captain Marvel. Some silly, but entertaining fun.

Movie **** Of Horses and Men (2013)

rmann April 6, 2019 June 12, 2019Movie and Book Reviews 0

Another Erlingsson film preceding his Woman at War success. Fine study of horses and men in a small Icelandic village.

Movie *** Dumbo (2019)

rmann April 5, 2019 June 12, 2019Movie and Book Reviews 0

Sad remake of original, but not sad in the same heart-rending way the original was. Don’t bother to go, but I won’t drop the spoilers of what doesn’t work in case you can’t stop yourself.

Movie ****+ Hanna (TV 2019 – Season 1)

rmann April 4, 2019 June 12, 2019Movie and Book Reviews 0

Esme Creed-Miles is terrific as the engineered assassin, raised until a teen in the forest, looking for her identity and her real parents. Enos and Kinnaman are also exceptional as her creators and handlers, now pitted against each other.

Movie **** Layer Cake (2004)

rmann April 2, 2019 April 3, 2019Movie and Book Reviews 0

Complex British thriller where Daniel Craig would like to retire from a successful life of crime, but… there are two more jobs he needs to accomplish first. Twice as good as when he only has one thing to accomplish first.

Movie ****+ Woman at War (2019)

rmann March 31, 2019 April 2, 2019Movie and Book Reviews 0

Exceptional Icelandic story of individualism fighting corporate values relentlessly shaping a short-term future away from long-term human desires.

Movie ***** The Fugitive (1993)

rmann March 22, 2019 March 29, 2019Movie and Book Reviews 0

Harrison Ford and Tommy Lee Jones (Oscar) blockbuster murder mystery. Terrific cinematography and editing. As fun on the third viewing as the first.
