Review of The Forest (2016)

By Sarah Marrs (566) for Lainey Gossip (399) on 13 Oct 2017

Review of Mascots (2016)

By Sarah Marrs (566) for Lainey Gossip (399) on 13 Oct 2017

There's a detached sense of boredom in Mascots, as if [Christopher] Guest himself is tired of his schtick…

Review of The Jungle Book (2016)

By Sarah Marrs (566) for Lainey Gossip (399) on 13 Oct 2017

The Jungle Book is charming from start to finish. Neel Sethi is adorable as Mowgli, and the stunning visuals are completely convincing…

Review of Insurgent (2015)

By Sarah Marrs (566) for Lainey Gossip (399) on 13 Oct 2017

There are no stakes and every problem encountered is resolved through a convenient device. They might as well have called it MacGuffin: The Movie…

Review of Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials (2015)

By Sarah Marrs (566) for Lainey Gossip (399) on 13 Oct 2017

Review of Daddy's Home (2015)

By Sarah Marrs (566) for Lainey Gossip (399) on 13 Oct 2017

Daddy's Home is not entertaining. It's a lazily executed painful waste of talented performers…

Review of Mechanic: Resurrection (2016)

By Sarah Marrs (566) for Lainey Gossip (399) on 13 Oct 2017

Mechanic: Resurrection starts off promising, with the double-blackmailing and boat explosions, but then it tries to be a B-grade Mission: Impossible…

Review of Before I Fall (2017)

By Sarah Marrs (566) for Lainey Gossip (399) on 13 Oct 2017

This is just a feature-length anti-bullying PSA, and dear lord is it tedious…

Review of The Martian (2015)

By Sarah Marrs (566) for Lainey Gossip (399) on 13 Oct 2017

The Martian is not self-serious, and is a reminder that you can make a movie with real stakes, depth, and tension and still include humor-it…

Review of Now You See Me 2 (2016)

By Sarah Marrs (566) for Lainey Gossip (399) on 13 Oct 2017

Review of Free State of Jones (2016)

By Sarah Marrs (566) for Lainey Gossip (399) on 13 Oct 2017

Free State of Jones is too boring to be bad in an interesting way and too infuriating to be bad in a fun way…

Review of Fences (2016)

By Sarah Marrs (566) for Lainey Gossip (399) on 13 Oct 2017

Fences comes to the stage almost entirely intact, including Wilson's beautiful language and scenery-chewing monologues, and as Troy [Denzel]…

Review of Detroit (2017)

By Sarah Marrs (566) for Lainey Gossip (399) on 12 Oct 2017

While Detroit is very good at making you feel things, it's less good at telling a complete story. The film almost feels unfinished…

Review of World War Z (2013)

By Sarah Marrs (566) for Lainey Gossip (399) on 12 Oct 2017

I don't know how else to put it -- it's bad. It's a mess. It's barely functional as a piece of entertainment and not at all as a movie…

Review of Brimstone (2016)

By Sarah Marrs (566) for Lainey Gossip (399) on 12 Oct 2017

Brimstone masquerades as religious allegory, but really it's just good ol' fashioned exploitative revenge porn…

Review of The Dark Tower (2017)

By Sarah Marrs (566) for Lainey Gossip (399) on 12 Oct 2017
