Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker (2019) 51% 2/5 EDIT “In trying to please everyone... Rise of Skywalker struggles to please anyone.” – Orlando Weekly Dec 18, 2019 Full Review Dolemite Is My Name (2019) 97% 4/5 EDIT “We all love a good comeback story, and this year it looks like it's going to be Eddie Murphy's turn.” – Orlando Weekly Oct 16, 2019 Full Review In the Tall Grass (2019) 36% 2.5/5 EDIT “In the end, In the Tall Grass feels like what it basically is - a side project.” – Orlando Weekly Oct 2, 2019 Full Review Blinded by the Light (2019) 89% 3/5 EDIT “Just like Springsteen's music, there's a lot of raw emotion underneath the grandiose packaging.” – Orlando Weekly Aug 14, 2019 Full Review The Farewell (2019) 97% 4.5/5 EDIT “Wang goes for a very understated and naturalistic tone throughout most the film, but not a scene is squandered.” – Orlando Weekly Jul 31, 2019 Full Review Midsommar (2019) 83% 4/5 EDIT “Pugh's performance is nuanced, sympathetic and completely believable.” – Orlando Weekly Jul 9, 2019 Full Review Avengers: Endgame (2019) 94% 4/5 EDIT “For the most part, Endgame delivers on the unique brand of humor, action and drama that Marvel has down to a science at this point.” – Orlando Weekly Apr 23, 2019 Full Review Teen Spirit (2018) 73% 3.5/5 EDIT “If you've ever seen an underdog movie, be it The Karate Kid or The Mighty Ducks, you know how this story goes. But Teen Spirit's strength lies in how it goes about bringing life to this particular iteration of the age-old story.” – Orlando Weekly Apr 17, 2019 Full Review Gloria Bell (2018) 90% 3.5/5 EDIT “It treats its subjects - older adults trying to navigate the world of singlehood - with respect rather than forcing the film to be a formulaic romcom.” – Orlando Weekly Mar 23, 2019 Full Review Ralph Breaks the Internet (2018) 88% 4/5 EDIT “Easily one of the funniest family films to come out of the Mouse House in years.” – Orlando Weekly Nov 21, 2018 Full Review The Oath (2018) 63% 2/5 EDIT “If you're for some reason wondering if a heated Facebook comment battle would make a good movie, writer-director Ike Barinholtz's new comedy, The Oath, is here to assure you that it wouldn't.” – Orlando Weekly Oct 17, 2018 Full Review Eighth Grade (2018) 99% 4.5/5 EDIT “Burnham gets a knockout performance from Elsie Fisher - heretofore mainly known for voice work in the Despicable Me movies and the English dub of Russian children's cartoon Masha and the Bear.” – Orlando Weekly Aug 1, 2018 Full Review Beirut (2018) 81% 2.5/5 EDIT “There's little in Beirut to appease critics of the film's authenticity.” – Orlando Weekly Apr 11, 2018 Full Review The Death of Stalin (2017) 94% 5/5 EDIT “If satire is dying, then The Death of Stalin, the latest film from Scottish writer-director Armando Iannucci, is a defibrillator, shocking the genre back to life.” – Orlando Weekly Mar 28, 2018 Full Review Ferdinand (2017) 70% EDIT “The film tries to deliver a message about pacifism and being yourself to young kids, but the message it really delivers is that violence is OK as long as you have an excuse.” – Orlando Weekly Dec 13, 2017 Full Review The Disaster Artist (2017) 90% 3/5 EDIT “Don't expect much new information to come to light if you've already read Sestero's book on which the film was based, though; despite a bravura performance from James Franco, Wiseau remains as inscrutable as ever.” – Orlando Weekly Dec 6, 2017 Full Review Coco (2017) 97% 5/5 EDIT “Coco is easily the best original property Pixar has come up with in roughly a decade.” – Orlando Weekly Nov 22, 2017 Full Review Wonderstruck (2017) 68% 3/5 EDIT “Thankfully, skilled direction and a knockout performance from newcomer Millicent Simmonds save Wonderstruck from being yet another forgettable YA adaptation.” – Orlando Weekly Nov 9, 2017 Full Review The Florida Project (2017) 96% 4/5 EDIT “Its humanist depiction of families on the fringe of society - an experience that is too often erased from the narrative we tell ourselves about the place where we live - makes it essential viewing.” – Orlando Weekly Oct 12, 2017 Full Review The Mountain Between Us (2017) 39% 2/5 EDIT “In trying to merge the disaster and romance genres, the film simply doesn't know which it wants to be most of the time, and ends up doing neither well.” – Orlando Weekly Oct 4, 2017 Full Review Logan Lucky (2017) 92% 4/5 EDIT “The endearing charm of the characters - along with a plot that teases the audience with just enough information to keep them wondering what's next - makes Logan Lucky a winner.” – Orlando Weekly Aug 16, 2017 Full Review Alien: Covenant (2017) 65% 4/5 EDIT “Covenant manages to bridge the navel-gazing of the first prequel with the edge-of-your-seat tension of the original Alien - with more than a little action thrown in for fans of Aliens.” – Orlando Weekly May 17, 2017 Full Review The Discovery (2017) 48% 3/5 EDIT “McDowell has shown himself to be a young director with a good sense of what makes for good science fiction: namely, keeping the human element the main focus of the story rather than the bells and whistles.” – Orlando Weekly Mar 29, 2017 Full Review Deidra & Laney Rob a Train (2017) 92% 2/5 EDIT “Even though there's plenty to like, there's a nagging sense that there should have been more.” – Orlando Weekly Mar 15, 2017 Full Review Burning Sands (2017) 88% 5/5 EDIT “It may not be a definitive look at the HBCU Greek experience, but it succeeds in being a nuanced look at the problem of hazing on any college campus.” – Orlando Weekly Mar 8, 2017 Full Review
