Review of The Hateful Eight (2015)

By Frank Swietek (3,473) for One Guy's Opinion (3,473) on 24 Dec 2015

Not odious but no classic either...basically a western potboiler with a mystery-novel pulse, amusing in parts but overlong..., though it does…

By Frank Swietek (3,473) for One Guy's Opinion (3,473) on 24 Dec 2015

Review of Concussion (2015)

By Frank Swietek (3,473) for One Guy's Opinion (3,473) on 24 Dec 2015

Based on an important...story, but could have used a better game plan to tell it...an earnest, well-meaning combination of character study,…

Review of The Danish Girl (2015)

By Frank Swietek (3,473) for One Guy's Opinion (3,473) on 22 Dec 2015

So cautious in dealing with the subject matter, so anxious to avoid the slightest hint of sensationalism, that it ends up exceedingly attractive…

Review of The Big Short (2015)

By Frank Swietek (3,473) for One Guy's Opinion (3,473) on 22 Dec 2015

Smart and manic, it might leave you more with a bit of a queasiness and exhaustion rather than the outrage it's aiming for, but at least it…

Review of Sisters (2015)

By Frank Swietek (3,473) for One Guy's Opinion (3,473) on 17 Dec 2015

The girls-just-want-to-have-fun philosophy behind this gross-out misfire proves no more appealing than the numerous examples of crass frat-boy…

Review of Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015)

By Frank Swietek (3,473) for One Guy's Opinion (3,473) on 16 Dec 2015

Review of In the Heart of the Sea (2015)

By Frank Swietek (3,473) for One Guy's Opinion (3,473) on 10 Dec 2015

Review of Krampus (2015)

By Frank Swietek (3,473) for One Guy's Opinion (3,473) on 05 Dec 2015

This more-naughty-than-nice bit of skewered holiday horror offers at most a sporadically amusing, but utterly ephemeral, dose of Christmas cheer…

Review of The Letters (2014)
