Review of Locke (2014)

Review of Thor: The Dark World (2013)

By Sonny Bunch (405) for Washington Free Beacon (282) on 13 Jul 2016

Review of The World's End (2013)

By Sonny Bunch (405) for Washington Free Beacon (282) on 13 Jul 2016

Review of Knight of Cups (2015)

By Sonny Bunch (405) for Washington Free Beacon (282) on 13 Jul 2016

Simply put: It's the most Malicky of Malick's recent films, relying on all his tricks and his tradecraft to convey a feeling rather than a story…

Review of World War Z (2013)

By Sonny Bunch (405) for Washington Free Beacon (282) on 13 Jul 2016

Review of Stoker (2013)

By Sonny Bunch (405) for Washington Free Beacon (282) on 13 Jul 2016

Review of Legend (2015)

By Sonny Bunch (405) for Washington Free Beacon (282) on 13 Jul 2016

Review of Remember (2016)

By Sonny Bunch (405) for Washington Free Beacon (282) on 13 Jul 2016

Plummer himself is perfect for this role. There aren't too many others who could convincingly play a demented nonagenarian with such verve…

By Sonny Bunch (405) for Washington Free Beacon (282) on 13 Jul 2016

By Sonny Bunch (405) for Washington Free Beacon (282) on 13 Jul 2016

Review of Spring Breakers (2013)

By Sonny Bunch (405) for Washington Free Beacon (282) on 13 Jul 2016
