“You may not walk away from it pondering the nature of the soul. But maybe you'll look up at a tree's branches swaying in the wind, or turn your face up to the sun for a minute...” –

Army Of The Dead (2021)

EDIT
“Army of the Dead doesn't seem to care much about all that-or for people. It's only lifeless when the living are onscreen.” –

MLK/FBI (2020)
98%
EDIT
“MLK/FBI is as much about the government persecution of King as it is about the timelessness of white America's fear of change.” –

Birds of Prey (and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn) (2020)
79%
EDIT
“The movie belongs to its outsized performances, the self-aware humor of Hodson's script, costume designer Erin Benach's eye-popping array of fantastical pieces, and cinematographer Matthew Libatique's eye for the playful, colorful, and unconventional.” –

Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker (2019)

EDIT
“J.J. Abrams' "final chapter" in the new "Star Wars" trilogy backtracks the boldest ideas of the previous entry, "The Last Jedi"-and in the process, succumbs to bad-faith "fans."” –

“Suffice to say that Endgame lives up to its promise as a gratifying, if bittersweet goodbye to modern cinema's biggest superheroes.” –

Shazam! (2019)
90%
EDIT
“Shazam! seems acutely aware of the self-serious, killjoy reputations of some of its DC universe brethren. It both celebrates the nerds who've stuck it out this long and (gently) dunks on the franchise's wonkier moments.” –

Captain Marvel (2019)

EDIT
“Its adherence to the tried-and-true conventions of a Phase One Marvel origin story, 10 years into an increasingly complex cinematic universe, might leave you neither overjoyed nor underwhelmed, but satisfied and wondering what's for dinner.” –

Glass (2019)
37%
EDIT
“Shyamalan wants us to know that he got to this genre early; characters repeat the phrase "19 years" too many times to forget. So it's strange that in Glass, he seems to forget what makes superhero stories endure.” –

Aquaman (2018)

EDIT
“There are so many unnecessary CGI blowups cluttering the movie that Mera's chemistry with Arthur doesn't get the oxygen it needs to ignite the love affair Aquaman wants us to believe in.” –

They Shall Not Grow Old (2018)

EDIT
“They Shall Not Grow Old is minimal-frills moviemaking-it does not moralize or politicize or even leave these soldiers' side in the mud. It simply lets them speak for themselves.” –

“"Anyone can wear the mask," Peter tells us early in the film. "You can wear the mask." By the end of Miles' journey, that kid's driven the point home more effectively than any onscreen hero to date.” –

Overlord (2018)

“Even with two-dimensional villains, a rote plot, and little in the way of invention, it's an original R-rated horror movie that tries something weird. That's got to count for something.” –

“Though it lacks the creative spark or daring or silliness or even just the pulse it would need to transcend action-flick cliché oblivion, Tomb Raider the reboot does boast one asset: Alicia Vikander.” –

“Some of the darkest ideas ever to manifest in a Disney-Pixar film take center stage in Coco, a movie that magically doubles as the studio's most colorful, vibrant adventure yet.” –
