Review of The Kindergarten Teacher (2018)

By Emily Yoshida (237) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 10 Mar 2018

Lisa’s drive is more than biological; it’s intellectual and emotional, and that’s what keeps what often risks becoming camp madness in…

Review of Gringo (2018)

By Emily Yoshida (237) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 08 Mar 2018

Gringo is a slightly above-average crime farce with a way above-average protagonist — both in terms of writing and performance, and especially…

Review of Thoroughbreds (2018)

By Emily Yoshida (237) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 08 Mar 2018

The flatness that is meant to shock early on quickly becomes boring, and the movie never sparks, slogging on in its nearly unbroken monotone…

Review of Game Night (2018)

By Emily Yoshida (237) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 23 Feb 2018

It won’t fix the studio comedy, but it’s a welcome, watchable outlier for now…

Review of Annihilation (2018)

By Emily Yoshida (237) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 21 Feb 2018

To mistake Garland’s succession of haunted-house-like spectacles as Acid: The Place would be missing out on so much emotional work that he’s…

Review of Annihilation (2018)

By Emily Yoshida (237) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 21 Feb 2018

To mistake Garland’s succession of haunted-house-like spectacles as Acid: The Place would be missing out on so much emotional work that he’s…

Review of Peter Rabbit (2018)

By Emily Yoshida (237) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 15 Feb 2018

It’s so insistent that this isn’t your great-grandmother’s Peter Rabbit — while, again, not straying from the original character design…

Review of Irreplaceable You (2018)

By Emily Yoshida (237) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 15 Feb 2018

A half-baked tragic love story so desperately engineered to tear-jerk that it ceases to resemble anything human…

Review of Golden Exits (2018)

By Emily Yoshida (237) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 08 Feb 2018

There aren’t a lot of people to necessarily sympathize with here, but the collective swell of a thousand nagging disappointments, both identifiable…

Review of Fifty Shades Freed (2018)

By Emily Yoshida (237) for New York Magazine/Vulture (3,519) on 08 Feb 2018

By the end of Freed, Christian and Ana are no longer a rich man and his middle-class girlfriend, but two rich people telling the tale of how…

Review of Sorry to Bother You (2018)

By Emily Yoshida (237) for New York Magazine/Vulture (3,519) on 24 Jan 2018

A pro-union, anti-corporate, race-conscious, Silicon Valley side-eyeing tale of one man’s journey through the late-capitalist nightmare of…

Review of Maze Runner: The Death Cure (2018)

By Emily Yoshida (237) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 17 Jan 2018

This is the sort of action film where the bad guys often hold their fire for no discernible reason, and are terrible at dodging things, but…

Review of The Commuter (2018)

By Emily Yoshida (237) for New York Magazine/Vulture (3,519) on 12 Jan 2018

This isn’t to say that the humans in The Commuter act anything like real people; the train is the most realistic performer here, but you…

Review of Paddington 2 (2017)

By Emily Yoshida (237) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 10 Jan 2018

The film gets progressively funnier and more delightful as it goes on; King layers plenty of good-natured comedy on top of each daring escape…

Review of Insidious: The Last Key (2018)

By Emily Yoshida (237) for New York Magazine/Vulture (3,519) on 05 Jan 2018

There is a real chance that one might be too busy trying to piece it all together to notice the jump scares, the film’s prime mode of…

Review of Bright (2017)

By Emily Yoshida (237) for New York Magazine/Vulture (3,519) on 21 Dec 2017

Bright turns out to be more interested in its mythrilpunk world-building than any kind of social commentary, which is a good thing, because…

Review of The Greatest Showman (2017)

By Emily Yoshida (237) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 20 Dec 2017

Musicals are inherently fake — they can be ecstatically, transcendentally fake — but this is a whole other level of disingenuousness…

Review of Downsizing (2017)

By Emily Yoshida (237) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 19 Dec 2017

I appreciate that Payne is more interested in blowing out a middle-class American perspective, and its perpetual victimhood narrative…

Review of Pitch Perfect 3 (2017)

By Emily Yoshida (237) for New York Magazine/Vulture (3,519) on 19 Dec 2017

Ends with a sentimentality I didn’t buy — the Bellas don’t seem to particularly care about each other outside of a competitive setting,…

Review of Crooked House (2017)

By Emily Yoshida (237) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 18 Dec 2017

It has its creaky corners, but there are enough twists and shocks to keep it engaging throughout…
