Lovely, surprising movie by Guillermo del Toro, but maybe not so surprising since he wrote Pacific Rim, Hellboy, and Pan’s Labyrinth ***** – one of my all time favorites which he also directed.

Meryl Streep was excellent in this well put together piece of history. Her performance, as usual, was worth the ticket.

Rey fights the First Order with the unwilling help of Luke Skywalker. Well-made addition to the franchise, but the franchise, in my opinion, is sorely in the need of breaking some new ground.

Movie ****+ Coco (2017)

Wonderful animated and musical excursion to the Land of the Dead to unravel Miguel’s family history.

Movie **** Victoria & Abdul (2017)

Fine Judy Dench period piece with a very good performance from Ali Fazal.

Batman, Wonder Woman, and friends face off against Steppenwolf parademons to protect three Mother Boxes that can destroy everything. This movie suffers from the tortured plot and many characters needing their scene.

Movie ***+ American Made (2017)

Tom Cruise tour de force story of drug-runner Barry Seal. Entertaining.

Movie ***+ The Florida Project (2018)

Disturbing movie of raising children under the radar of Child Protective Services. Well-made, low-budget effort improved by William Defoe and Bria Vinaite as the challenged mother of Moonee.

Movie **** Thor – Ragnarok (2018)

rmann November 3, 2017 May 27, 2018Movie and Book Reviews 0

Fun with franchise characters, notably the Hulk and Thor.

Movie ****+ Blade Runner 2049 (2017)

rmann October 9, 2017 May 27, 2018Movie and Book Reviews 0

Fine remake, but missing Rutger Howard’s performance and containing some logic gaps that press your willing suspension of disbelief.
