Review of The Mule (2018)

By Richard Roeper (2,737) for Chicago Sun-Times (7,580) on 13 Dec 2018

Review of Ben Is Back (2018)

By Richard Roeper (2,737) for Chicago Sun-Times (7,580) on 13 Dec 2018

Ben Is Back shifts gears and becomes as much a thriller as a family drama, and some of the developments stretch credulity…

By Richard Roeper (2,737) for Chicago Sun-Times (7,580) on 12 Dec 2018

Review of Asher (2018)

By Richard Roeper (2,737) for Chicago Sun-Times (7,580) on 09 Dec 2018

Of course, the aging-hit-man theme is hardly original, and at times Asher feels almost TOO familiar — but thanks to the great performances…

Review of The Favourite (2018)

By Richard Roeper (2,737) for Chicago Sun-Times (7,580) on 29 Nov 2018

Review of Creed II (2018)

By Richard Roeper (2,737) for Chicago Sun-Times (7,580) on 21 Nov 2018

Review of Robin Hood (2018)

By Richard Roeper (2,737) for Chicago Sun-Times (7,580) on 21 Nov 2018

Review of Green Book (2018)

By Richard Roeper (2,737) for Chicago Sun-Times (7,580) on 19 Nov 2018

By Roger Ebert (5,190) for Chicago Sun-Times (7,580) on 12 Nov 2018
