Review of Sully (2016)

By Stephen Silver (684) for EntertainmentTell (372) on 26 Sep 2016

It's really two movies, in which one is much better than the other. But that landing sequence is truly amazing (Splice Today)…

Review of Southside with You (2016)

By Stephen Silver (684) for EntertainmentTell (372) on 26 Sep 2016

A charming, cute, partially fictionalized dramatization of the Obamas' first date- but the film's centerpiece scene fails (Splice Today)…

Review of The Beatles: Eight Days a Week - The Touring Years (2016)

By Stephen Silver (684) for EntertainmentTell (372) on 26 Sep 2016

Not a whole lot new or illuminating, but on the other hand it's nearly two hours of Beatles music and concert footage (Splice Today)…

Review of The Light Between Oceans (2016)

By Stephen Silver (684) for EntertainmentTell (372) on 26 Sep 2016

Above-average Oscar bait that doesn't have anything particularly wrong with it, but nothing so special either (Splice Today)…

Review of Author: The JT LeRoy Story (2016)

By Stephen Silver (684) for EntertainmentTell (372) on 26 Sep 2016

It's a sordid tale, and Albert is not an especially sympathetic or reliable narrator. But the film is hugely entertaining (Splice Today)…

Review of War Dogs (2016)

By Stephen Silver (684) for EntertainmentTell (372) on 20 Aug 2016

As blatant Martin Scorsese imitation goes, War Dogs is one of the better ones (Splice Today)…

Review of Hell or High Water (2016)

By Stephen Silver (684) for EntertainmentTell (372) on 20 Aug 2016

Fantastic. It's planted in various durable genres, as well as American myth itself, while it's also very much of the moment. (Splice Today)…

Review of Sausage Party (2016)

By Stephen Silver (684) for EntertainmentTell (372) on 13 Aug 2016

When Sausage Party is funny, it's very funny. Just leave the kids at home (Splice Today)…

Review of Can We Take a Joke? (2016)

By Stephen Silver (684) for EntertainmentTell (372) on 13 Aug 2016

Overstates its case to a nearly comical degree, as a group of comedians claim censorship that doesn't exist (Splice Today)…

Review of Don't Think Twice (2016)

By Stephen Silver (684) for EntertainmentTell (372) on 07 Aug 2016

Even if you don't care much for improv-and I really don't-you're going to fall for this movie. (Splice Today)…

Review of Jason Bourne (2016)

By Stephen Silver (684) for EntertainmentTell (372) on 07 Aug 2016

Features most of the virtues, and vices, of the earlier entries in the series. Damon's an outstanding hero…

Review of Suicide Squad (2016)

By Stephen Silver (684) for EntertainmentTell (372) on 07 Aug 2016

Embraces virtually all of the clichés of the modern-day superhero genre, and all the pitfalls specific to DC's movies- wasn't it supposed…

Review of Bad Moms (2016)

By Stephen Silver (684) for EntertainmentTell (372) on 07 Aug 2016

Has some significant blind spots and goes wildly over the top in numerous places, but it's good for a lot of laughs and its heart is in the…

Review of Equity (2016)

By Stephen Silver (684) for EntertainmentTell (372) on 21 Jul 2016

Equity has a fantastic idea for a film, and puts the exact right actress at the center of it…

Review of Captain Fantastic (2016)

By Stephen Silver (684) for EntertainmentTell (372) on 21 Jul 2016

It doesn't ultimately hold together and the third act is a mess, but there's some wonderful stuff here (Splice Today)…

Review of Ghostbusters (2016)

By Stephen Silver (684) for EntertainmentTell (372) on 17 Jul 2016

As with most culture war skirmishes of the past several years, the little boys of all ages are wrong about the new Ghostbusters. (Splice Today)…

Review of The Infiltrator (2016)

By Stephen Silver (684) for EntertainmentTell (372) on 17 Jul 2016

A well-directed, well-acted effort that's based on a true story, even if it does bend the truth a bit from how things actually happened…

Review of Wiener-Dog (2016)

By Stephen Silver (684) for EntertainmentTell (372) on 10 Jul 2016

Wiener-Dog is no triumph, but if you like Todd Solondz-or dogs-you'll probably enjoy it…

Review of Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates (2016)

By Stephen Silver (684) for EntertainmentTell (372) on 10 Jul 2016

It's every bit the stupid, raunchy high-concept comedy that appears in all of its marketing- but very funny stuff is going on at the margins.(Splice…

Review of The Secret Life of Pets (2016)

By Stephen Silver (684) for EntertainmentTell (372) on 10 Jul 2016

It's structured like a Pixar film, and almost reaches that level of creativity (Splice Today)…
