Review of Nobody (2021)

By John Defore (1,351) for The Hollywood Reporter (7,050) on 22 Mar 2021

Taking itself much less seriously than the Taken series and its predecessors, it's a wish-fulfillment romp just as ludicrous as any of them…

Review of Clerk (2021)

By John Defore (1,351) for The Hollywood Reporter (7,050) on 21 Mar 2021

Listening to one of Smith's speaking engagements would be a much more entertaining way for a fan to spend 115 minutes, and non-fans or fence-sitters…

Review of Zack Snyder's Justice League (2021)

By John Defore (1,351) for The Hollywood Reporter (7,050) on 15 Mar 2021

The movie's soul, such as it is, remains unimproved, and at 242 minutes, very few of them offering much pleasure, it's nearly unendurable as…

Review of YES DAY (2021)

By John Defore (1,351) for The Hollywood Reporter (7,050) on 10 Mar 2021

It's parental wish-fulfillment that isn't at all interested in what being a kid actually feels like…

Review of Boss Level (2021)

By John Defore (1,351) for The Hollywood Reporter (7,050) on 01 Mar 2021

This is all passably satisfying, but would be vastly better if the screenwriters weren't lazily explaining every single detail in voiceover…

Review of Tom & Jerry (2021)

By John Defore (1,351) for The Hollywood Reporter (7,050) on 26 Feb 2021

Tim Story's Tom & Jerry is five to ten minutes of action that might have worked in one of the cartoon duo's shorts, surrounded by an inordinate…

Review of Crisis (2021)

By John Defore (1,351) for The Hollywood Reporter (7,050) on 22 Feb 2021

Ultimately, none of the storylines offers a surprise or tells us anything we don't already know, this many years into America's opioid ordeal…

Review of The Map of Tiny Perfect Things (2021)

By John Defore (1,351) for The Hollywood Reporter (7,050) on 09 Feb 2021

Kyle Allen and Kathryn Newton balance energies well as the boy who thinks he's found his groundhog girlfriend and the girl whose secrets keep…

Review of Little Fish (2021)

By John Defore (1,351) for The Hollywood Reporter (7,050) on 04 Feb 2021

It makes a global crisis intensely personal, even romantic…

Review of First Date (2021)

By John Defore (1,351) for The Hollywood Reporter (7,050) on 02 Feb 2021

While the two young thesps acquit themselves nicely, much around them conspires to prevent their debut from being a memorable one…

Review of Prisoners of the Ghostland (2021)

By John Defore (1,351) for The Hollywood Reporter (7,050) on 01 Feb 2021

It alternates between too simplistic and incomprehensible, spending much of its time in between those poles in the I understand, but I don't…

Review of On the Count of Three (2022)

By John Defore (1,351) for The Hollywood Reporter (7,050) on 01 Feb 2021

It's not wholly satisfying as a dramatic work, which is probably a sign of its honest identification with its two troubled protagonists…

Review of A Glitch in the Matrix (2021)

By John Defore (1,351) for The Hollywood Reporter (7,050) on 31 Jan 2021

Though it leaves some avenues underexplored and gives a bit too much attention to the sci-fi landmark name-checked in its title, the film makes…

Review of How It Ends (2021)

By John Defore (1,351) for The Hollywood Reporter (7,050) on 31 Jan 2021

It's more breezy than bittersweet, more about acceptance and forgiveness than a movie made in 2020 has any right to be…

Review of Palmer (2021)

By John Defore (1,351) for The Hollywood Reporter (7,050) on 25 Jan 2021

A capable cast helps the pic rise above its formulaic nature (take out a drunken hookup and some language, and this is a thoroughly mainstream…

Review of Brothers by Blood (2021)

By John Defore (1,351) for The Hollywood Reporter (7,050) on 21 Jan 2021

The picture rarely makes that business much to look at, providing some kind of energy to offset the actor's appropriate reserve…
