Review of Maleficent: Mistress of Evil (2019)

By Joe Morgenstern (2,395) for Wall Street Journal (3,071) on 17 Oct 2019

Review of Jojo Rabbit (2019)

By Joe Morgenstern (2,395) for Wall Street Journal (3,071) on 10 Oct 2019

Review of Parasite (2019)

By Joe Morgenstern (2,395) for Wall Street Journal (3,071) on 10 Oct 2019

Review of Pain and Glory (2019)

By Joe Morgenstern (2,395) for Wall Street Journal (3,071) on 03 Oct 2019

It’s a puzzle play, with one of the best closing shots in memory. Film is its subject. So is life. With Mr…

Review of Joker (2019)

By Joe Morgenstern (2,395) for Wall Street Journal (3,071) on 03 Oct 2019

Think of Joker as both dental drill and Novocain…

Review of Dolemite Is My Name (2019)

By Joe Morgenstern (2,395) for Wall Street Journal (3,071) on 03 Oct 2019

Review of Judy (2019)

By Joe Morgenstern (2,395) for Wall Street Journal (3,071) on 26 Sep 2019

The movie, directed by Rupert Goold, is a conventional but perfectly serviceable showcase for its star, who sets the whole thing on fire every…

Review of Abominable (2019)

By Joe Morgenstern (2,395) for Wall Street Journal (3,071) on 26 Sep 2019

Review of Vision Portraits (2019)

By Joe Morgenstern (2,395) for Wall Street Journal (3,071) on 22 Aug 2019

The extraordinary thing about this film by Rodney Evans is how well it conveys the complexity. Vision is precious, it reminds us frequently…

Review of Ready or Not (2019)

By Joe Morgenstern (2,395) for Wall Street Journal (3,071) on 22 Aug 2019

It’s all B-movie stuff, though sporadically entertaining and occasionally witty on the intertwined subjects of bedevilment and in-laws…

Review of Aquarela (2018)

By Joe Morgenstern (2,395) for Wall Street Journal (3,071) on 15 Aug 2019

Review of Cold Case Hammarskjöld (2019)

By Joe Morgenstern (2,395) for Wall Street Journal (3,071) on 15 Aug 2019

The trip is entertaining and even instructive — not about the facts of the case, which go from murky to opaque, but about the slip-slidingly…
