Review of Mile 22 (2018)

By Sandy Schaefer (333) for ScreenRant (1,013) on 15 Aug 2018

Mile 22 isn't lacking when it comes to hard-hitting action, but is undone by its confused narrative and over-rushed attempt at franchise-building…

Review of Mission: Impossible - Fallout (2018)

By Sandy Schaefer (333) for ScreenRant (1,013) on 26 Jul 2018

Review of The First Purge (2018)

By Sandy Schaefer (333) for ScreenRant (1,013) on 05 Jul 2018

Review of Sicario: Day of the Soldado (2018)

By Sandy Schaefer (333) for ScreenRant (1,013) on 28 Jun 2018

Review of Hereditary (2018)

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

Review of Adrift (2018)

By Sandy Schaefer (333) for ScreenRant (1,013) on 30 May 2018

A solid dramatization of real world events, Adrift is nevertheless more compelling as a grisly survival drama than a love story…

Review of Cargo (2017)

By Sandy Schaefer (333) for ScreenRant (1,013) on 16 May 2018

By Sandy Schaefer (333) for ScreenRant (1,013) on 10 May 2018

Review of Rampage (2018)

By Sandy Schaefer (333) for ScreenRant (1,013) on 10 Apr 2018
