Review of Hotel Transylvania: Transformania (2022)

By Jesse Hassenger (800) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 10 Jan 2022

It’s heartening to see a big-ticket cartoon franchise end with the animation as its true star…

Review of The 355 (2022)

By Jesse Hassenger (800) for Paste Magazine (2,906) on 06 Jan 2022

If playwright Theresa Rebeck, who receives co-writing and story credit, brought a fresher perspective to this material at some point, it has…

Review of The King's Man (2021)

By Jesse Hassenger (800) for Polygon (677) on 05 Jan 2022

The story is never fully passed along to the younger character; this really is Fiennes’ movie all the way, and probably more interesting for it…

Review of Cyrano (2021)

By Jesse Hassenger (800) for Paste Magazine (2,906) on 03 Jan 2022

Everyone does a good job and the movie still doesn’t really linger…

Review of The Tender Bar (2021)

By Jesse Hassenger (800) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 16 Dec 2021

The one performer in the ensemble capable of making this stuff sound like the good kind of bullshitting is Affleck…

Review of Rumble (2021)

By Jesse Hassenger (800) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 15 Dec 2021

There’s liveliness in the conception of Rumble, knocked around and out by the demands of formulas no one has bothered to figure out…

Review of Being the Ricardos (2021)

By Jesse Hassenger (800) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 07 Dec 2021

The Lucy-Desi material that should be at the heart of the story never really pays off, as if it’s wandered off and found another, secret…

Review of Don't Look Up (2021)

By Jesse Hassenger (800) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 07 Dec 2021

Don’t Look Up is both types of blunt: It makes no bones about exactly what the filmmakers think of climate-change deniers and social-media…

Review of Diary of a Wimpy Kid (2021)

By Jesse Hassenger (800) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 03 Dec 2021

It seems questionable whether this was really intended as a movie in the first place…

Review of Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City (2021)

By Jesse Hassenger (800) for Polygon (677) on 24 Nov 2021

For all of its limitations and points of departure from the previous series, though, Raccoon City maintains that lineage of B-movies made with skill…

Review of The Humans (2021)

By Jesse Hassenger (800) for Paste Magazine (2,906) on 23 Nov 2021

On film, The Humans is more Thanksgiving-appropriate than ever. No preludes, no gifts, no tinsel…

Review of King Richard (2021)

By Jesse Hassenger (800) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 16 Nov 2021

The movie keeps enough of Richard’s messy past off screen to feel like a hagiography with a few concessions, rather than a true warts-and-all…

Review of Passing (2021)

By Jesse Hassenger (800) for Paste Magazine (2,906) on 26 Oct 2021

After establishing the characters with such elegance and grace, the movie proceeds to nudge them toward an endpoint that is beautifully shot…

Review of Ghostbusters: Afterlife (2021)

By Jesse Hassenger (800) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 09 Oct 2021

Afterlife wants desperately to summon the spirit of watching the first movie back in 1984. It winds up ghoulish in the wrong way…

Review of Dune (2021)

By Jesse Hassenger (800) for Consequence (296) on 07 Oct 2021

The movie is too vividly realized to be boring, but it spends a lot of time scrambling out of the gap between pulpy fun and serious allegory…

Review of No Time to Die (2021)

By Jesse Hassenger (800) for Paste Magazine (2,906) on 06 Oct 2021

No Time to Die is neither lean nor mean; it’s a hard-working attempt to reconcile the Bond rituals with a series-finale emotional weight…

Review of C'mon C'mon (2021)

By Jesse Hassenger (800) for Consequence (296) on 04 Oct 2021

Even if C’mon C’mon occasionally feels like navel-gazing, it’s too open-hearted and generous of spirit to miss…

Review of LAMB (2021)

By Jesse Hassenger (800) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 04 Oct 2021

This intimate, four-character film has its own quiet rhythms, compatible with yet distinct from any perceived A24 house style…
