TAYLOR SWIFT | THE ERAS TOUR (2023) 98% EDIT “Though Swift comments, during the film, that she and her fans can make new memories to go with the songs, I don't feel a need to overwrite Swift's 17-year career. A lot of the time, her songs were playing when I learned things.” – The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Oct 27, 2023 Full Review 17 Blocks (2019) 100% EDIT “You can't take your eyes off 17 Blocks for even a second.” – The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Mar 6, 2021 Full Review Anomalisa (2015) 92% EDIT “Kaufman has created a very smart movie, and I ended up liking it for what it was. It is not a heartwarming romp. It is a dense, sneaky movie about narcissism, cruelty, and Lisa's own shy resilience.” – Bitch Media Feb 9, 2021 Full Review Maleficent (2014) 54% EDIT “As the sum of all its parts, Maleficent is a downright fun film.” – Bitch Media Jan 21, 2021 Full Review EMMA. (2020) 86% EDIT “De Wilde's debut is stylish and original.” – The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Mar 3, 2020 Full Review The Rhythm Section (2020) 28% EDIT “Rhythm Section succeeds on an atmospheric level, to such a degree that it approaches elegance-too bad the dated script is just regular ol' self-reliance porn that ends up being too sexist to even do that properly.” – The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Feb 6, 2020 Full Review A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood (2019) 95% EDIT “It's unusual to witness real cinematic magic these days, but the Fred Rogers biopic A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood absolutely has it.” – The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Nov 26, 2019 Full Review The Good Liar (2019) 64% EDIT “Ultimately, The Good Liar is too serious for a movie about hot elders trying to pretend they don't speak German.” – The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Nov 18, 2019 Full Review It: Chapter Two (2019) 62% EDIT “I'm sorry to report that these adult Losers never really come together, despite great turns by Hader and a scene-stealing James Ransone as Eddie.” – The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Sep 11, 2019 Full Review The Nightingale (2018) 87% EDIT “There's a lot to the film, and I respect anyone who needs to sit this one out. But if you go into The Nightingale, be a witness to history. Don't look away.” – The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Aug 21, 2019 Full Review The Farewell (2019) 97% EDIT “I didn't expect such visual delights from cinematographer Anna Franquesa Solano, who peppers the film with truly lovely natural light.” – The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Aug 14, 2019 Full Review Whisper of the Heart (1995) 95% EDIT “The film also unforgettably repurposes John Denver's "Country Roads," and applies it to everyday Japanese life via a number of covers. If that sounds too good to be true, it's not. It totally works somehow.” – The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Jul 11, 2019 Full Review The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part (2019) 84% EDIT “The premise is played, but there's still some fun to be had, and you can see it with your kids.” – The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Feb 14, 2019 Full Review Alita: Battle Angel (2019) 61% EDIT “I'd rather talk about what this film is: a fun, exhilarating realization of a sci-fi story that, even now, audiences may not be ready for.” – The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Feb 14, 2019 Full Review Mortal Engines (2018) 25% EDIT “Mortal Engines is the sort of movie that you watch when you get home from a rave at 3 a.m. and you're still too high or amped up to go to sleep.” – The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Dec 14, 2018 Full Review Mid90s (2018) 81% EDIT “I loved Mid90s for its moving portrayal of a patriarchal found family... But intentionally or not, Hill's vision puts us so close to the story that it makes it hard to see the cracks in his idealized vision of youth.” – The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Oct 26, 2018 Full Review The Happytime Murders (2018) 23% EDIT “Oh brother, here we go again with the puppets f---king.” – The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Aug 24, 2018 Full Review Ant-Man and The Wasp (2018) 87% EDIT “Ant-Man and the Wasp follows through on that stuff and goes even further with scale-shifting action sequences. More importantly, this film uses Rudd exponentially better, giving him plenty of opportunities to be goofy and charming and Paul Rudd-y.” – The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Jul 5, 2018 Full Review The Misandrists (2017) 75% EDIT “I wonder if every viewer will understand that the film's unique tone is offered in the spirit of affection, rather than contempt, for radical feminism.” – The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Jun 29, 2018 Full Review Big Fish & Begonia (2016) 94% EDIT “If you can let these aesthetics marry in your mind, there's a chance you can fall under Big Fish & Begonia's spell.” – The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Apr 13, 2018 Full Review A Wrinkle in Time (2018) 43% EDIT “[Ava] DuVernay doesn't cut the weird, though, without adding wonder. Her update to the three Mrs. W's is particularly spectacular.” – The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Mar 8, 2018 Full Review Maze Runner: The Death Cure (2018) 42% EDIT “For sure, Death Cure reaches further than its grasp in a vain attempt to close the story on a meaningful note, but who can really blame this gaggle of murder-teens for trying to pretend like all the murdering they did meant something?” – The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Jan 25, 2018 Full Review Goodbye Christopher Robin (2017) 64% EDIT “It'd be enough to break your heart-if any of it felt real.” – The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Oct 25, 2017 Full Review Patti Cake$ (2017) 86% EDIT “As Patti Cake$ reminds us, reality is always stranger than what we can imagine.” – The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Aug 30, 2017 Full Review In This Corner of the World (2016) 97% EDIT “We know where In This Corner of the World is headed. But it's easy to forget.” – The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Aug 18, 2017 Full Review
