Review of Tag (2018)

By David Sims (534) for The Atlantic (1,046) on 13 Jun 2018

As a studio comedy, Tag is just about diverting enough to avoid total disaster, but it lacks the self-awareness and depth that might’ve turned…

Review of Incredibles 2 (2018)

By David Sims (534) for The Atlantic (1,046) on 12 Jun 2018

While it takes time to build up steam and set up its plot mechanics, once everyone is in costume and letting loose, it’s an exhilarating ride…

Review of Won't You Be My Neighbor? (2018)

By David Sims (534) for The Atlantic (1,046) on 06 Jun 2018

The film is touching, sometimes saccharine, and other times bluntly honest, but it works best as a fascinating reminder that Rogers was trying…

Review of Hereditary (2018)

By David Sims (534) for The Atlantic (1,046) on 06 Jun 2018

Hereditary is a great scare-fest and a middling domestic saga, one that probably needed to be either 90 minutes long and brimming with terror,…

Review of American Animals (2018)

By David Sims (534) for The Atlantic (1,046) on 31 May 2018

It’s a film that tosses questions at the viewer with no interest in answering them, one that can’t decide if it feels for its subjects…

Review of The Tale (2018)

By David Sims (534) for The Atlantic (1,046) on 24 May 2018

The Tale is above all a work of profound empathy, as a look inside someone’s psyche would have to be…

Review of Revenge (2017)

By David Sims (534) for The Atlantic (1,046) on 20 May 2018

Revenge won't be an experience every viewer can handle, but as a piece of extreme horror, it's an intelligent and flashy debut…

Review of First Reformed (2018)

By David Sims (534) for The Atlantic (1,046) on 20 May 2018

The result is an embittered look at our world through the eyes of someone who’s increasingly horrified to be a part of it, and a film that’s…

Review of Zama (2017)

By David Sims (534) for The Atlantic (1,046) on 20 May 2018

There’s absolutely nothing else like it in theaters this year, which I mean as both a hearty endorsement and a necessary forewarning…

Review of Book Club (2018)

By David Sims (534) for The Atlantic (1,046) on 20 May 2018

Book Club is an airy dinner conversation set before a spectacular, disposable backdrop, a sure-fire bet to be the breeziest two hours you spend…

Review of Revenge (2017)

By David Sims (534) for The Atlantic (1,046) on 09 May 2018

Swerving between thrill-a-minute action and intense, drawn-out suspense, Revenge has all the subtlety of a bazooka to the face, but it’s…

Review of Tully (2018)

By David Sims (534) for The Atlantic (1,046) on 03 May 2018

Much of what does work is owed to Theron and Davis’s incredible performances…

Review of Disobedience (2018)

By David Sims (534) for The Atlantic (1,046) on 27 Apr 2018

Disobedience finishes on an annoyingly vague note, almost as if Lelio and Lenkiewicz had stumbled on a more interesting, expansive narrative…

Review of The Devil and Father Amorth (2018)

By David Sims (534) for The Atlantic (1,046) on 17 Apr 2018

The Devil and Father Amorth at times seems like it’s trying to set the record straight on exorcisms…

Review of Come Sunday (2018)

By David Sims (534) for The Atlantic (1,046) on 12 Apr 2018

Pearson’s epiphany, and his subsequent battles with the church, were confusing for both parties, and Marston seeks to underscore that with…

Review of Rampage (2018)

By David Sims (534) for The Atlantic (1,046) on 12 Apr 2018

Rampage is a big, noisy nothing—an action extravaganza that fails at being funny just as hard as it fails at being serious…

Review of The Rider (2018)

By David Sims (534) for The Atlantic (1,046) on 10 Apr 2018

Zhao clearly understands that universal conflict between desire and reality, and with The Rider, she’s dramatized it beautifully…

Review of A Quiet Place (2018)

By David Sims (534) for The Atlantic (1,046) on 07 Apr 2018

A Quiet Place is a taut piece of genre filmmaking, to be sure, though it succeeds because it leads with a believable, if heightened, portrayal…

Review of A Quiet Place (2016)

By David Sims (534) for The Atlantic (1,046) on 06 Apr 2018

A Quiet Place is an undoubtedly taxing affair for the nerves; fortunately, it's also a deeply affecting one…

Review of Blockers (2018)

By David Sims (534) for The Atlantic (1,046) on 05 Apr 2018

Blockers ends up being a mirror-image coming-of-age film, where the kids have to help the adults make some grand realizations…
