Review of The Oath (2018)

By Jesse Hassenger (800) for The Week (85) on 27 Sep 2018

In The Oath, his first feature as a writer-director, comic actor Ike Barinholtz zeroes in on an approach somewhere between caustic stage comedy…

Review of Night School (2018)

By Jesse Hassenger (800) for The Week (85) on 27 Sep 2018

It has all the hallmarks of Hart's films: a convoluted story that goes out of its way to paint Hart as an insecure but hard-working go-getter,…

Review of Smallfoot (2018)

By Jesse Hassenger (800) for AV Club (2,778) on 20 Sep 2018

It’s still mostly just a time-passer for younger kids — and, absent a strong point of view, as much of a hedged bet as its narration-and-song…

Review of Love, Gilda (2018)

By Jesse Hassenger (800) for AV Club (2,778) on 17 Sep 2018

The emotional impact is ultimately surprisingly muted; she dies too soon, and the movie ends…

Review of Kin (2018)

By Jesse Hassenger (800) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 28 Aug 2018

It’s a simple idea, to take this working-class family and introduce what amounts to a high-tech ray gun, but the hook is so effective that…

Review of Support the Girls (2018)

By Jesse Hassenger (800) for The Week (85) on 22 Aug 2018

Lots of movies like to tell stories about grit, determination, and perseverance…

Review of Searching (2018)

By Jesse Hassenger (800) for AV Club (2,778) on 19 Aug 2018

As a thriller, Searching is both ruthlessly absorbing in the moment and relatively disposable as soon as it ends, sliding itself gracefully…

Review of Alpha (2018)

By Jesse Hassenger (800) for AV Club (2,778) on 14 Aug 2018

Alpha has been sold, to some degree, as a family-friendly film, and while it’s too violent and perhaps too heavily subtitled for young kids…

Review of Slender Man (2018)

By Jesse Hassenger (800) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 08 Aug 2018

In a movie this flat-out dull, even a tasteful lack of direct exploitation feels like a failure of nerve…

Review of The Meg (2018)

By Jesse Hassenger (800) for The Week (85) on 08 Aug 2018

Director Jon Turteltaub, a longtime hand at live-action Disney movies, doesn't have the ruthlessness required to goose either the suspense…

Review of Dog Days (2018)

By Jesse Hassenger (800) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 07 Aug 2018

If Dog Days were a little weirder, it would just be a smug anti-comedy takedown of a late-period Garry Marshall picture, like They Came Together…

Review of Dog Days (2018)

By Jesse Hassenger (800) for AV Club (2,778) on 06 Aug 2018

Review of Like Father (2018)

By Jesse Hassenger (800) for AV Club (2,778) on 01 Aug 2018

Perversely, it’s only after Like Father is in the clear from its potentially ridiculous set-up that it really starts to trade in phony sitcom-movie…

Review of The Miseducation of Cameron Post (2018)

By Jesse Hassenger (800) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 29 Jul 2018

It’s telling that the filmmaker captures one of Gallagher’s best moments in a long and relatively uneventful take situated at a breakfast…

Review of Mission: Impossible - Fallout (2018)

By Jesse Hassenger (800) for The Week (85) on 25 Jul 2018

The Mission: Impossible movies are not emotional experiences, but a visceral expression of Cruise's dogged desire to remain an action star…

Review of Teen Titans Go! To the Movies (2018)

By Jesse Hassenger (800) for The Week (85) on 25 Jul 2018

The success of these cartoons comes down to a willingness to reinterpret characters with both visual and thematic adventurousness…

Review of Puzzle (2018)

By Jesse Hassenger (800) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 23 Jul 2018

It’s hard to fault Puzzle for going in a more rigorous, serious-minded direction…
