Review of Godzilla: King of the Monsters (2019)

By Barry Hertz (792) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 27 May 2019

When Dougherty is able to keep these intelligent-ish impulses at bay, King of the Monsters is stupendous stupidity…

Review of The Perfection (2018)

By Barry Hertz (792) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 23 May 2019

Most everyone who watches The Perfection will instead be staring at the screen slack-jawed, dumbfounded at the gory silliness they endured…

Review of Brightburn (2019)

By Barry Hertz (792) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 22 May 2019

The film is not nearly as strong as its villain. It is, however, just as immature…

Review of All Is True (2018)

By Barry Hertz (792) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 21 May 2019

Unfortunately no amount of self-confidence can sustain All Is True, Branagh’s stab at filling in the blanks of Shakespeare’s retirement,…

Review of Aladdin (2019)

By Barry Hertz (792) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 21 May 2019

Each frame is drowning in vibrant colours and packed with so many decked-out extras that Aladdin’s environment seems less like a typical…

Review of John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum (2019)

By Barry Hertz (792) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 15 May 2019

All right, there are bits and pieces of new material in Chapter 3, but they come in the form of gobbledygook world-building…

Review of Aniara (2019)

By Barry Hertz (792) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 14 May 2019

Yet while last month’s Claire Denis drama High Life will go down as one of the year’s ultimate masterpieces, the Swedish soul-crusher Aniara…

Review of The Biggest Little Farm (2019)

By Barry Hertz (792) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 14 May 2019

The film’s harmless pro-nature message is replaced with a drippy sense of self-congratulatory idealism, turning the film into a home movie…

Review of Firecrackers (2019)

By Barry Hertz (792) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 08 May 2019

Firecrackers is not as casually joyful as its title suggests – but it is absolutely as incendiary…

Review of Long Shot (2019)

By Barry Hertz (792) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 01 May 2019

As usual, Levine rounds out his supporting cast with a suspiciously stacked roster of comic actors – Randall Park, June Diane Raphael, O’Shea…

Review of J.T. LeRoy (2019)

By Barry Hertz (792) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 30 Apr 2019

Yet despite the efforts of its stars and the inherent juiciness of its source material, the film falls flat when it should bounce with surreal…

Review of UglyDolls (2019)

By Barry Hertz (792) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 30 Apr 2019

The new animated film UglyDolls is a lazy flip, its main intention to foster the toy-aisle bond between kids and its quasi-hideous title characters…

Review of Dragged Across Concrete (2019)

By Barry Hertz (792) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 24 Apr 2019

Nearly everyone in this movie, and nearly everything that happens in it, is awful. Vile. Nasty. But it is a nastiness that sticks…

Review of Diane (2019)

By Barry Hertz (792) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 24 Apr 2019

The reason Diane (the film) exists is not to propose and then solve a mystery, but to engage with Diane (the person)…

Review of Avengers: Endgame (2019)

By Barry Hertz (792) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 22 Apr 2019

Even if I could muster the strength to defy studio marching orders on plot details, there is no point…

Review of Under the Silver Lake (2018)

By Barry Hertz (792) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 17 Apr 2019

There is an occasional sense of self-awareness that this is all pointless and silly, but 139 minutes is a long time for a film to forgo even…

Review of The Best of Enemies (2019)

By Barry Hertz (792) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 11 Apr 2019

Luckily, Henson finds just enough in this thin movie to chew on, and every moment that the actress is on screen feels like we’re glimpsing…

Review of Sunset (2019)

By Barry Hertz (792) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 05 Apr 2019

Perhaps Nemes was hoping to let the precision of his intricately staged images artfully clash with the absurdity of a chaotic plot…

Review of The Beach Bum (2019)

By Barry Hertz (792) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 28 Mar 2019

The Beach Bum feels like a similar display of prized possessions – only that one of you (Matthew) is taking us on a tour of his bongo- and…

Review of Screwball (2019)

By Barry Hertz (792) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 25 Mar 2019

More entertaining than a dozen Major League Baseball games stacked on top of one another…
