Yesterday (2019) 63% 2.5/4 EDIT “Patel's performance does nothing to suggest Jack deserves to be a global superstar, best songs of all time or not. There is a job for gifted writers with tremulous voices; they're called songwriters.” – Toronto Star Jun 27, 2019 Full Review John Wick: Chapter 3 -- Parabellum (2019) 89% 2.5/4 EDIT “Check your grounded Harrison Ford-era action ideals at the door: this is the biggest and most bonkers John Wick yet.” – Toronto Star May 16, 2019 Full Review The Gospel According to André (2017) 87% 3/4 EDIT “A rags-to-custom-caftans story that holds universal appeal, whether you know your Badgley Mischka from your Mischa Barton or not.” – Toronto Star May 24, 2018 Full Review Gringo (2018) 40% 2/4 EDIT “Though each of these great actors are somewhere on the spectrum of being funny, no one feels completely in their element.” – Toronto Star Mar 8, 2018 Full Review Forever My Girl (2018) 25% 1.5/4 EDIT “Rothe was a standout in last year's horror comedy Happy Death Day, but the Denver-born actor's performance here as Josie is as coolly bland as overnight oats.” – Toronto Star Jan 18, 2018 Full Review Leatherface (2017) 27% 1/4 EDIT “The best horror movies leave the most frightening elements to an audience's imagination. Leatherface is not one of those movies.” – Toronto Star Oct 19, 2017 Full Review Happy Death Day (2017) 71% 3/4 EDIT “What makes Death Day feel so fresh is that this is all played with a whopper of a wink, pulled off by the considerable comedic talents of star Jessica Rothe, who successfully juggles the horror/comedy mash-up.” – Toronto Star Oct 12, 2017 Full Review My Little Pony: The Movie (2017) 48% 2/4 EDIT “Most of the film feels like an exercise in creating enough plot to hit the 90-minute mark.” – Toronto Star Oct 6, 2017 Full Review Flatliners (2017) 4% 1.5/4 EDIT “This would be boring if it wasn't so unintentionally funny.” – Toronto Star Oct 1, 2017 Full Review It (2017) 85% 3/4 EDIT “Muschietti's It strikes a nice balance between sleepover-ready gross-outs (tiptoeing through raw sewage, for example) and tender coming-of-age storytelling.” – Toronto Star Sep 7, 2017 Full Review 2/4 EDIT “Amy Jo Johnson reaches for big laughs and deep feels that prove beyond her grasp in her feature directorial debut.” – Toronto Star Aug 24, 2017 Full Review Step (2017) 96% 3.5/4 EDIT “What the film lacks in actual music and performance (only a snippet of Beyonc's "Formation"?), it makes up for in intimate interviews with the Lethal Ladies and their mothers, who are doing their best to give their daughters a better life.” – Toronto Star Aug 10, 2017 Full Review The Black Prince (2017) 7% 1.5/4 EDIT “The Black Prince may follow the formula of a prestige pic, but this messy film just shows why those truly stirring historical dramas deserve the awards season glory they get.” – Toronto Star Jul 21, 2017 Full Review Paris Can Wait (2016) 47% 2.5/4 EDIT “Perhaps worst of all are the limited expectations Coppola has for her own heroine. It's hard to love a movie where a woman finds herself from the passenger seat.” – Toronto Star May 25, 2017 Full Review The Lovers (2017) 81% 2.5/4 EDIT “Jacobs has delivered a two-handed character study and, in this mission, he is handily assisted by his two powerful leads.” – Toronto Star May 18, 2017 Full Review Born in China (2016) 83% 3/4 EDIT “While the footage is breathtaking, these animal tales get wobblier every year at walking the line between educational fun and hard-to-swallow stories of animals acting out human narratives.” – Toronto Star Apr 20, 2017 Full Review Saban's Power Rangers (2017) 51% 1/4 EDIT “You can picture the pitch: if you sort-of liked Power Rangers when it was half recycled footage, wait until you see a version that costs over a hundred million dollars!” – Toronto Star Mar 23, 2017 Full Review A Dog's Purpose (2017) 35% 2/4 EDIT “When Hollywood casts a dog as the lead in a movie, it's pretty much always because there is a sappily inspirational tale to be told. And that, as they say, is A Dog's Purpose.” – Toronto Star Jan 26, 2017 Full Review Split (2017) 79% 2.5/4 EDIT “Like the villain of Split, Shyamalan's worst enemy just might be himself.” – Toronto Star Jan 19, 2017 Full Review The Edge of Seventeen (2016) 94% 3/4 EDIT “While teenage tropes are dutifully checked off - the love triangle, the makeover, the party gone wrong - there's originality to Nadine's lonely quest to find her place, only to ultimately learn she's not alone in being all alone.” – Toronto Star Nov 17, 2016 Full Review
