Review of The Hunt (2020)

By Sandy Schaefer (333) for Screen Rant (892) on 12 Mar 2020

A better survival thriller than social commentary via the horror genre, The Hunt only just holds together thanks to Betty Gilpin's virtuoso lead turn…

Review of The Call of the Wild (2020)

By Sandy Schaefer (333) for Screen Rant (892) on 17 Feb 2020

Though it lacks the grit and gristle of the best London adaptations, The Call of the Wild is elevated by Harrison Ford and a very good CGI doggo…

Review of Downhill (2020)

By Sandy Schaefer (333) for Screen Rant (892) on 12 Feb 2020

Far from being a full-blown disaster, Downhill is a middle of the road comedy-drama that would've benefitted from a more incisive technique…

Review of Timmy Failure: Mistakes Were Made (2020)

By Sandy Schaefer (333) for Screen Rant (892) on 06 Feb 2020

It walks the fine line between being too whimsical and too dramatic, yet maintains that delicate balancing act over the course of its entire runtime…

Review of Joker (2019)

By Sandy Schaefer (333) for Screen Rant (892) on 04 Feb 2020

At the end of the day, Joker comes off as Scorsese-lite in the same way that Phillips' last movie, War Dogs, did - albeit, with great acting…

Review of The Turning (2020)

By Sandy Schaefer (333) for Screen Rant (892) on 24 Jan 2020

As a whole, The Turning is a triumph of style over substance that might've well made for a perfectly middle of the road horror film, had it…

Review of How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World (2019)

By Sandy Schaefer (333) for Screen Rant (892) on 23 Jan 2020

Overall, The Hidden World ends the How to Train Your Dragon movies on a strong note and shouldn't disappoint those who've spent the last five…

Review of Bad Boys for Life (2020)

By Sandy Schaefer (333) for Screen Rant (892) on 15 Jan 2020

It's more effective as an action-comedy about Mike and Marcus struggling to figure out what they want in life (now that they're facing north…

Review of 1917 (2019)

By Sandy Schaefer (333) for Screen Rant (892) on 08 Jan 2020

1917 is worth checking out on a big screen for its visuals alone (Deakins' next Oscar nomination is all but assured), even though its immersive…

Review of The Grudge (2019)

By Sandy Schaefer (333) for Screen Rant (892) on 03 Jan 2020

The movie's attempts to expand The Grudge's mythology generally don't work, and its stabs at being grittier and more realistic than the films…

Review of Cats (2019)

By Sandy Schaefer (333) for Screen Rant (892) on 18 Dec 2019

In spite of its shoddy sound design (Hooper, as he did with Les Mis, has his cast sing live, but their vocals are poorly blended with the instrumentation),…

Review of Serenity (2019)

By Sandy Schaefer (333) for ScreenRant (1,013) on 25 Jan 2019

Though its big ideas don't work, Serenity's narrative miscalculations result in some pretty entertaining - if completely unintentional - comedy…

Review of Glass (2019)

By Sandy Schaefer (333) for ScreenRant (1,013) on 16 Jan 2019

Glass concludes Shyamalan's superhero movie trilogy in a manner that manages to be absorbing, frustrating, and bewildering at the same time…

Review of Replicas (2018)

By Sandy Schaefer (333) for ScreenRant (1,013) on 11 Jan 2019

It has some promising elements, but on the whole Replicas is a campy sci-fi movie that's more likely to elicit unintended laughs than anything else…

Review of Holmes & Watson (2018)

By Sandy Schaefer (333) for ScreenRant (1,013) on 02 Jan 2019

Holmes & Watson is a lazy comedy that wastes a fun premise and talented cast on tired jokes, tasteless gags, and sometimes bafflingly outdated humor…

Review of Vice (2018)

By Sandy Schaefer (333) for ScreenRant (1,013) on 17 Dec 2018

Though it has the makings of a biting satire/biopic, Vice ends up feeling more like the rough draft of a better movie than a fully-realized vision…

Review of Mortal Engines (2018)

By Sandy Schaefer (333) for ScreenRant (1,013) on 12 Dec 2018

Mortal Engines has some terrific world design and visuals, but its uninspired narrative and ungainly filmmaking make for a hollow viewing experience…

Review of Destroyer (2018)

By Sandy Schaefer (333) for ScreenRant (1,013) on 11 Dec 2018

Powered by Kidman's fierce performance and Kusama's deliberate filmmaking, Destroyer makes for an effectively pulpy work of high-art storytelling…

Review of The Favourite (2018)

By Sandy Schaefer (333) for ScreenRant (1,013) on 07 Dec 2018

Armed with Lanthimos' trademark weirdness and three great lead performances, The Favourite is a truly unique spin on the typical royal court drama…

Review of If Beale Street Could Talk (2018)

By Sandy Schaefer (333) for ScreenRant (1,013) on 07 Dec 2018

Much like his previous films as a director, Jenkins' Beale Street adaptation is a richly layered and beautifully atmospheric work of cinematic poetry…
