78 56% Fantastic Mr. Fox (2009) - Rated 17 Mar 2022
"Fantastic Mr. Fox is an immaculatly crafted film as can be expected from Wes Anderson. And his style fits perfectly in the storybook reality of the Roald Dahl story. The tonal shifts, however, may prove distracting for some."
77 54% Zack Snyder's Justice League (2021) - Rated 17 Mar 2022
"Zack Snyder's Justice League proves if nothing else, that a directors original vision is always worth coming back to. This is a vast improvement and a sign that the DCEU was headed in the right direction."
98 87% The Suicide Squad (2021) - Rated 17 Mar 2022
"The Suicide Squad gives James Gunn an R-rated playground to go nuts in. And he takes advantage of it in every single oddball frame of this perfectly written masterpiece. DC's willingness to go out of the box recently has paid off once again."
69 39% Birds of Prey: And the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn (2020) - Rated 17 Mar 2022
"Birds of Prey is a fun film. Margot Robbie is great as always in her signature role. The whole thing is entertainly while you watch it, but is totally forgettable after the fact."
87 70% Lights Out (2016) - Rated 17 Mar 2022
"Lights Out is a wonderfully creepy film. The performances are all great. Most of all, the visuals and scares are served so well, that David F. Sandberg has proven himself a horror director worthy of the genre."
82 62% Shazam! (2019) - Rated 17 Mar 2022
"Shazam is hilarious, well acted and well shot. DC takes a more lighthearted approach for a change and it works well. All in all, the film feels a bit late to the comedy/superhero party and is not as memorable as a result."
78 56% Ring Ø: Birthday (2000) - Rated 17 Mar 2022
"Birthday is a surprisingly effective Sadako story and probably the best of all the follow-ups to the original. The tension filled story is held together well by a joyful mix of heart and tragic loss."
43 14% When a Stranger Calls (1979) - Rated 17 Mar 2022
"Colleen Duhearst is the only reason to continue watching after the legendary opening 20 minutes."
76 52% Firestarter (1984) - Rated 17 Mar 2022
"Carrie with fire. Firestarter is a very entertaining flick. Encompassing all of King's style for better or worse. Drew Barrymore draws us in right away and shows once again why she is still a celebrated performer to this day."
35 10% Children of the Corn (1984) - Rated 17 Mar 2022
"Children of the Corn has the benefit of Isaac. Beyond that, it is plainly obvious right from the start that the story has been inflated for a longer running time, and as a result is one of the slowest horror flicks ever made."
