Review of The Central Park Five (2012)

By Abby Olcese (108) for Scene-Stealers.com (667) on 26 Jun 2017

If hindsight is 20/20, the amount of perspective the film's talking heads provide practically amounts to a telephoto lens…

Review of La La Land (2016)

By Abby Olcese (108) for Sojourners (77) on 26 Jun 2017

While (the film has) an optimistic, positive message, it loses potency by showing just how little room there is for real life - with all its…

Review of Baby Driver (2017)

By Abby Olcese (108) for Sojourners (77) on 26 Jun 2017

It's less a movie than a feature-length exercise in editing and sound design…

Review of Hacksaw Ridge (2016)

By Abby Olcese (108) for Sojourners (77) on 26 Jun 2017

The effect of seeing that character's (Doss) unwavering, steadfast faith instead of the inner struggles it must have taken to get to that point…

Review of 13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi (2016)

By Abby Olcese (108) for Sojourners (77) on 25 Jun 2017

Bay chooses to pander, by promoting a worldview that has no room for intellect or compassion, and reinforcing stereotypes…

Review of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story (2016)

By Abby Olcese (108) for Sojourners (77) on 25 Jun 2017

There's a certain weight here that hasn't necessarily been present in most of the other films…

Review of Free State of Jones (2016)

By Abby Olcese (108) for Sojourners (77) on 25 Jun 2017

Free State of Jones contains so much story that it might have been better served in a longer format. But as it is, the film is a mess…

Review of The Walk (2015)

By Abby Olcese (108) for Sojourners (77) on 25 Jun 2017

With his latest release, Robert Zemeckis disappointingly shows audiences, once again, that he's far more interested in what he can do with…

Review of Tangerine (2015)

By Abby Olcese (108) for Sojourners (77) on 25 Jun 2017

Director Sean Baker's wickedly funny and stylish film Tangerine dives deep into the transgender community in Los Angeles in a way that explores…

Review of Chi-Raq (2015)

By Abby Olcese (108) for Sojourners (77) on 25 Jun 2017

Chi-Raq 's goofy satirical humor keeps it feeling fresh and smart. But it works better as a lament, and a call to action…

Review of Captain America: Civil War (2016)

By Abby Olcese (108) for Sojourners (77) on 25 Jun 2017

It's the balance of conflict at its core, and the film's willingness to expose and explore the deep-rooted feelings of its characters that…

Review of Arrival (2016)

By Abby Olcese (108) for Sojourners (77) on 25 Jun 2017

The level of intelligence and respect the film has for its audience is refreshing…

Review of Suicide Squad (2016)

By Abby Olcese (108) for Sojourners (77) on 25 Jun 2017

The film fails its characters by not leaving room for them to stand out individually, and it fails women by attempting to sell an overtly abusive…

Review of Suffragette (2015)

By Abby Olcese (108) for Sojourners (77) on 25 Jun 2017

There's a tendency, among historical dramas about social movements, to make the topic at hand ... sexy, for lack of a better term…

Review of War Dogs (2016)

By Abby Olcese (108) for Sojourners (77) on 25 Jun 2017

It had the potential be a subversive commentary on the international arms industry…

Review of Crimson Peak (2015)

By Abby Olcese (108) for Sojourners (77) on 25 Jun 2017

Crimson Peak is not a perfect film, but it does many things well, including the patina of human tragedy it paints on top of its creaking floors…

Review of Trainwreck (2015)

By Abby Olcese (108) for Sojourners (77) on 25 Jun 2017

Inconsistent, but really funny…

Review of Everybody Wants Some!! (2016)

By Abby Olcese (108) for Sojourners (77) on 25 Jun 2017

Everybody Wants Some!! is an exuberant exploration of the excitement and challenges that come with finding yourself in college…

Review of Ghostbusters (2016)

By Abby Olcese (108) for Sojourners (77) on 25 Jun 2017

Unfortunately, the film squanders the talents of its cast on a poor script that's bogged down with poor jokes, underdeveloped characters, and…

Review of Weiner (2016)

By Abby Olcese (108) for Sojourners (77) on 25 Jun 2017

It's this sentiment, paired with high-access insight into the mind of the subject, that makes Weiner such an interesting film…
