4/5
An Education (2009) Kenneth R. Morefield It is important to me in valuing the film that Jenny learn something from her education and not simply be brought low by it. I think she has.

5/5
The Godfather (1972) Kenneth R. Morefield 'That’s my family, Kay; that’s not me' remains for me one of the most tragic lines in all film.

2/4
The Bad Patriots (2024) Kenneth R. Morefield When Fraga steps back from trying to situate the film as a smaller part of his "manipulation trilogy" and allows the focus to stay on Loach and Corbyn, Bad Patriots is informative as well as interesting.

Young Mothers (2025) Kenneth R. Morefield Any Dardenne film is a cause for rejoicing, and there are moments in this one that got me to see these young women as people in a difficult situation rather than merely as stock figures.

Secret Mall Apartment (2024) Kenneth R. Morefield Gradually develops into an all-time great art documentary.

Now You See Me: Now You Don't (2025) Kenneth R. Morefield If you replaced Jesse Eisenberg with an animated wolf I am not sure I could distinguish any random fifteen seconds of the film from The Bad Guys 2.

The Running Man (2025) Kenneth R. Morefield We can’t ever be more than five minutes of screen time removed from a chase or a fight or an explosion.

3/4
When Fall Is Coming (2024) Kenneth R. Morefield Rarely does this writing out and out falsify some assumption or inference about a character, but it often leads to doubts and second-guessing.

The Lovely Bones (2009) Kenneth R. Morefield As feel-good child murder movies go, The Lovely Bones hits all its marks.

3/4
Stitch Head (2025) Kenneth R. Morefield If the middle dilutes the film’s overall impact, it does not entirely blunt the effectiveness of the end or hurt the film too much beyond my downgrading it from “great” to “very good.”

3.5/4
Last Days (2025) Kenneth R. Morefield Like some spiritual cousin of Chris McCandless from Into the Wild, John longs for authenticity while being surrounded at every turn by people more ready to tell him how to live his life than to practice what they preach.

Divia (2025) Kenneth R. Morefield The film fails to move the viewer beyond the broad claim, which most probably already assented to, that war is bad for the earth.

Blue Moon (2025) Kenneth R. Morefield Within ten minutes, we understand exactly why Rodgers moved on.

3/4
Good Fortune (2025) Kenneth R. Morefield A more generic film would make Jeff into a monster here, but Ansari is less interested in critiquing Jeff than he is in interrogating the systems that create those like him.

1.5/4
300letters (2025) Kenneth R. Morefield In the romance genre, one needs to be rooting for the couple. In the break up genre, it helps if you don’t think the characters are better off without each other.

1.5/4
Roofman (2025) Kenneth R. Morefield Roofman is either a morally confused movie or a morally confusing one.

2/4
One Big Happy Family (2025) Kenneth R. Morefield The film feels a little too afraid to let Rachel be angry or to show anyone being unlikable.
Posted Oct 10, 2025  Edit critic review
3/4
Nuremberg (2025) Kenneth R. Morefield The ending doesn’t negate the good that preceded it, but a slightly more polished and tighter script could have landed the film in Best Picture discussions.

2/4
The War Between (2024) Kenneth R. Morefield The film could be construed as saying that because representatives of both sides are flawed, the sides themselves are morally equivalent.

3/4
Naked Ambition (2023) Kenneth R. Morefield I was engaged by almost all of the segments, but I also was frustrated that many were not developed beyond the articulation of the main point.

2/5
Just the Two of Us (2023) Kenneth R. Morefield Poupad does what he can with such a one-dimensional character, but truth is you know where this is going from the moment Grégoire tells his girlfriend that he doesn’t like her new haircut.

3.5/4
Suspended Time (2024) Kenneth R. Morefield Not knowing how our lives will evolve, change, and adapt is scary.

3/5
Hola Frida (2024) Kenneth R. Morefield I am not saying it should be for adults, but adults may find it harder to look past or dismiss the necessarily simplified presentation of its subject matter.

1/4
The Trouble with Jessica (2023) Kenneth R. Morefield More sour than dark and never particularly funny.

2/5
The Naked Gun (2025) Kenneth R. Morefield I suspect if this had been the first four episodes of a rebooted television series, parceled out in 22 minute episodes, I probably would have felt differently.

2/4
Jurassic World Rebirth (2025) Kenneth R. Morefield Jurassic Park movies have always been a bit too cavalier for my taste about using children as dinosaur bait to up the ante.

2.5/4
If You Should Leave Before Me (2025) Kenneth R. Morefield A screenplay that assumes the audience is two steps behind better be two steps ahead...

2.5/4
Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning (2025) Kenneth R. Morefield The missions have gotten longer, louder, and more preposterous over thirty years...

3/4
Jane Austen Wrecked My Life (2024) Kenneth R. Morefield Once it became clear that the film wasn’t retelling any particular Jane Austen novel, it became more interesting in its own right.

2/5
Doubt (2008) Kenneth R. Morefield He is either innocent or guilty. I can respect a film that says we don’t always get to know the answer. But I can't respect a film, however well shot and acted, that says the answer hardly matters.

1.5/4
Hello Beautiful (2025) Kenneth R. Morefield Given that Hello Beautiful‘s sole reason for being seems to be to induce sympathy for a woman with breast cancer, saying that it attempts to do absolutely nothing else feels like a criticism both too harsh and too gentle.

Relative Control (2025) Kenneth R. Morefield While I enjoyed seeing Polo in a dramatic role, I can’t recommend Relative Control to anyone except for her staunchest fans.

The Librarians (2025) Kenneth R. Morefield The Librarians sizzles with righteous indignation and is steeped in unimaginable pain.

Speak. (2025) Kenneth R. Morefield Comes with all the feels one wants and needs from a festival crowd-pleaser.

3.5/5
Blue Road: The Edna O'Brien Story (2024) Kenneth R. Morefield The juxtaposition of a young woman’s diaries with an old woman’s recollections provides the narrative with emotional and tonal variance.

William Tell (2024) Kenneth R. Morefield Unlike in Braveheart or The Patriot, it is the hero’s success rather than his defiance that ultimately rallies his kinsmen.

3/4
The King of Kings (2025) Kenneth R. Morefield For those who want Easter to be a special occasion that warrants an infrequent trip to the cinema, I am happy they have something that is not cringe-worthy to throw their Passion Dollars at.

3/4
WTO/99 (2025) Kenneth R. Morefield We rarely distance ourselves from current events long enough to really contemplate how quickly the ideological lines we think are eternal and intractable shift.

2/4
Helen and the Bear (2024) Kenneth R. Morefield Her inability to verbalize why she stayed with him even though she hates the institution of marriage provides the film with some poignancy, but it can also cause exasperation.

Birdsong (2025) Kenneth R. Morefield The press materials also name-drop Keats quite a bit, which was what got me to watch.

3.5/5
Disney's Snow White (2025) Kenneth R. Morefield It is not exactly a hot take or a new take to suggest that early “buzz” surrounding a film may be based on something other than neutral aesthetic and artistic judgments.
Posted Mar 20, 2025  Edit critic review
2/4
Captain America: Brave New World (2025) Kenneth R. Morefield You get a good forty minutes of “Smash!…Boom!…Pow!” sprinkled around two hours of allusions to a geopolitical landscape that the film is ultimately uninterested in or unwilling to explore.

2.5/4
Cash for Gold (2024) Kenneth R. Morefield Nearly all of the plot points and story beats are predictable, but Cash for Gold demonstrates that execution matters.
Posted Feb 02, 2025  Edit critic review
2/4
The Night Is Dark and Colder Than the Day (2025) Kenneth R. Morefield The obvious point of comparison here is Michael Apted’s Seven Up series, and I spent a good portion of the film wondering why I have revisited Apted’s kids several times but lost interest pretty quickly in Friedrich’s.

2.5/4
You're Cordially Invited (2025) Kenneth R. Morefield The weaker script needs [Farrell and Witherspoon] to lean heavily on their personal charisma and damn if they don't deliver.

Celebration (2024) Kenneth R. Morefield At eighty-six minutes it feels too slight for its themes and yet too long for its style.

The Waiting Game (2024) Kenneth R. Morefield The film gives us enough of the former players that we can't help but be glad they were compensated for their contributions.

2.5/4
Bonhoeffer: Pastor. Spy. Assassin. (2024) Kenneth R. Morefield It’s better than most movies aimed at and marketed to Christians in that it at least allows for some nuance when thinking about its ideas.

2/4
Gladiator II (2024) Kenneth R. Morefield My complaint isn't so much that this one doesn't reach the same heights as the first but that the drop-off is so steep, it signals a lack of ambition that comes across as almost cynical.

1.5/4
Wicked (2024) Kenneth R. Morefield A bright, loud paintball splatter of a movie — one that seems to me to be as uncertain of what it wants to be as it is how to be it.
