Review: Mirai

The fabric of the fantasy world depicted in Mirai lacks the cohesion of the film’s central theme about appreciating one’s place in a family tree.

Review: Christine

The film largely fails to animate Christine Chubbuck’s inner turmoil, focusing instead on broad, blunt externalities.

Review: The BFG

Full of such quietly inventive visual magic, it’s perfectly content to simply revel in the stuff dreams are made of.

Review: The Gift

Joel Edgerton’s boilerplate direction is a blessing for a genre increasingly saddled with literal visualizations of madness.

Review: Transcendence

If you programmed an algorithm to figure out how Lawnmower Man might be retold by Snake Plissken at the end of Escape from L.A., you’d still wind up with something more human.
