Review of Now You See Me (2013)

By Jennifer Heaton (346) for Alternative Lens (346) on 31 Oct 2018

Review of Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom (2018)

By Jennifer Heaton (346) for Alternative Lens (346) on 31 Oct 2018

It takes everything that didn't work about the last movie and makes that the focus, telling an incoherent and laughable story that feels like…
