Nobody (2021) 83% C+ EDIT “Nobody offers more than enough gunplay and ass-kicking to satisfy grindhouse nuts. It also has plenty of pent-up rage and white male manslaughter to make others wince. In its purest form? Nobody is the premiere Dad Film of 2021.” – Consequence Mar 22, 2021 Full Review Coming 2 America (2021) 49% B EDIT “Coming 2 America deserves to be enjoyed as one of Eddie Murphy's better follow-ups.” – Consequence Mar 4, 2021 Full Review Tom & Jerry (2021) 29% D+ EDIT “Tom & Jerry is far from the worst family film in the world. It's just a familiar, by-the-books, vertically integrated product to ensure continued IP visibility for the film and television arm of a corporate portfolio.” – Consequence Feb 27, 2021 Full Review MLK/FBI (2020) 98% B EDIT “MLK/FBI justifies itself as a compelling addendum to King's legacy, not simply as a heart-rending unveiling of past tragedy and maliciously tarnished greatness.” – Consequence Jan 15, 2021 Full Review Another Round (2020) 93% A- EDIT “In a word, Another Round is intoxicating. Vinterberg elevates what could have been a mope-fest with a magnificently defiant tone and a powerhouse performance from Mikkelsen.” – Consequence Dec 22, 2020 Full Review Songbird (2020) 9% D EDIT “Adam Mason's Songbird is about boring people getting mad that they're stuck inside, and the government is oppressing them, and they'll soon fly free or whatever.” – Consequence Dec 11, 2020 Full Review Hillbilly Elegy (2020) 24% D EDIT “The whole of Hillbilly Elegy stinks of a demo reel for a young Republican's bid for Congress.” – Consequence Nov 10, 2020 Full Review Fatman (2020) 43% D EDIT “Elf with a hard R-rating. Low-budget Lethal Weapon. Another lump of coal in Gibson's rapidly declining filmography. Fatman has no gifts to speak of.” – Consequence Nov 9, 2020 Full Review Roald Dahl's The Witches (2020) 50% B EDIT “At the risk of sounding bewitched, Hathaway steals the show.” – Consequence Oct 21, 2020 Full Review Borat Subsequent Moviefilm (2020) 85% C+ EDIT “Borat Subsequent Moviefilm works its ass off to lampoon this very minute in the US, but the current mood is just too fraught.” – Consequence Oct 21, 2020 Full Review Totally Under Control (2020) 99% A- EDIT “Talk about a film made for right goddamn now. This is Medium Cool for 2020. The pandemic is scary enough, and in 20, 50 years, this doc is going to stand as a living document of just how bad COVID-19 got.” – Consequence Oct 19, 2020 Full Review Unhinged (2020) 49% B EDIT “Not quite a gas, but without crashing and burning entirely, Unhinged gets where it needs to go and fast.” – Consequence Aug 20, 2020 Full Review Skin: A History of Nudity in the Movies (2020) 85% B- EDIT “Skin: A History of Nudity certainly has its blemishes, but it's occasionally excited and secure in its willingness to build an off-the-cuff alt history for an under-discussed facet of filmmaking.” – Consequence Aug 18, 2020 Full Review Irresistible (2020) 40% B EDIT “Yes, Irresistible is a farce about political theater, and an often painfully funny one, but it's also a deeply unnerving manifesto on the pundit economy, campaign financing, and the narcissism, ego, and collective amnesia it all fosters.” – Consequence Jun 22, 2020 Full Review Da 5 Bloods (2020) 92% A- EDIT “With Da 5 Bloods, Spike Lee returns to war with a project that synthesizes his better instincts in a more coalesced way.” – Consequence Jun 10, 2020 Full Review Scream, Queen! My Nightmare on Elm Street (2019) 100% B+ EDIT “Scream, Queen! is a stirring Hollywood history lesson, and a convincing plea for inclusion as one of fandom's better sides. This is the silver lining along Freddy Krueger's nasty claws.” – Consequence Jun 4, 2020 Full Review Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2014) 20% EDIT “1990's Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is a plain cheese with a little pepperoni for flavor. The 2014 Ninja Turtles is that awful, excessive-looking Pizza Hut pizza with too many toppings and the "cheese"-filled crust nuggets that nobody really wanted.” – Consequence Mar 20, 2020 Full Review The Way Back (2020) 84% B EDIT “The Way Back is extremely familiar in some ways, but its best moments are found in the little shake-ups of genre and creative choices found here and there.” – Consequence Mar 6, 2020 Full Review Onward (2020) 88% D+ EDIT “Onward is so hopelessly focused on the dad narrative that it can't help but ignore its creativity in favor of mawkish afternoon special, the product stinks of a bad Amblin ripoff. It's a weird feeling to leave a Pixar production unmoved.” – Consequence Mar 4, 2020 Full Review Birds of Prey (and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn) (2020) 79% B EDIT “Birds of Prey is a comic book movie that feels adapted from a bunch of Bazooka Joe strips rubber-banded together. It's a big ball of candy, mushed together and flung at the wall, and we're all invited to happily take a bite out of crime.” – Consequence Feb 6, 2020 Full Review Dolittle (2020) 15% C EDIT “Consider Dolittle from a minutes-and-movie-magic angle. At 100 minutes, with just enough digital chutzpah to keep everyone reasonably amused and never quite annoyed, Dolittle is tolerably fine.” – Consequence Jan 15, 2020 Full Review Richard Jewell (2019) 77% B- EDIT “As a political or journalistic statement, Richard Jewell does have the unfortunate tendency to come across like a rant. But that does not greatly detract from the film's rich biography of Jewell.” – Consequence Dec 12, 2019 Full Review Noelle (2019) 56% C- EDIT “In holiday gift terms, Noelle ain't coal, and it ain't a new car. It's holiday socks, with a big ugly candy cane and some wavy text on it.” – Consequence Nov 13, 2019 Full Review Charlie's Angels (2019) 52% B EDIT “Charlie's Angels feels like a course correction on the whole concept, written, directed, by, for, and about women.” – Consequence Nov 12, 2019 Full Review Last Christmas (2019) 47% C+ EDIT “Last Christmas is content to be a Hallmark card with "get well soon" written inside of it, and the senders seem to really mean it.” – Consequence Nov 7, 2019 Full Review
