The Kid Who Would Be King is a charming story of fantasy, pop-culture references and myth-making…

Review of Glass (2019)

By Monica Castillo (380) for TheWrap (3,203) on 09 Jan 2019

Review of If Beale Street Could Talk (2018)

By Monica Castillo (380) for NPR (1,713) on 13 Dec 2018

Review of Mary Queen of Scots (2018)

By Monica Castillo (380) for RogerEbert.com (5,563) on 06 Dec 2018

Review of Mowgli: Legend of the Jungle (2018)

By Monica Castillo (380) for TheWrap (3,203) on 29 Nov 2018

As an actor, Serkis may be the industry’ mo-cap master, but storytelling through performance is a different skill than writing or directing…

Jinn holds several beautiful elements, especially in its central mother-daughter story…

Review of Instant Family (2018)

Review of El Angel (2018)

By Monica Castillo (380) for RogerEbert.com (5,563) on 09 Nov 2018

Although the film’s premise is based on a true story, Luis Ortega’s El Angel is not a faithful biopic…

Review of Hunter Killer (2018)

By Monica Castillo (380) for RogerEbert.com (5,563) on 25 Oct 2018

It’s also an odd time to release a movie that embraces collaborating with the Russians and painting bad and good guys with such broad strokes…

Review of Halloween (2018)

By Monica Castillo (380) for NPR (1,713) on 17 Oct 2018

This Halloween highlights a question that horror films so often ignore: How does a genre that unleashes so much violence on its characters…

Review of The Hate U Give (2018)

Review of 306 Hollywood (2018)

By Monica Castillo (380) for RogerEbert.com (5,563) on 27 Sep 2018
