Review of Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017)

By Robert Horton (590) for Seattle Weekly (293) on 05 Jul 2017

Review of Beatriz at Dinner (2017)

By Robert Horton (590) for Seattle Weekly (293) on 15 Jun 2017

Review of Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales (2017)

By Robert Horton (590) for Seattle Weekly (293) on 25 May 2017

The plot is a tired rehash. Still, there's something to be said for big, buoyant spectacle in a summer movie. (I mentioned the ghost sharks, right?)…

Review of King Arthur: Legend of the Sword (2017)

By Robert Horton (590) for Seattle Weekly (293) on 11 May 2017

For all the alleged comradeship meant to convey fun-at times Ritchie seems to be nodding at Robin Hood more than King Arthur-the film is joyless…

Review of Colossal (2017)

By Robert Horton (590) for Seattle Weekly (293) on 13 Apr 2017

Once Colossal sets its conceptual hook, it pushes its zany premise into authentically uncomfortable territory. It's actually about something…

Review of Raw (2017)

By Robert Horton (590) for Seattle Weekly (293) on 30 Mar 2017

If anything, Raw is almost too self-conscious about its metaphors; Ducournau is practically writing her own academic paper on Raw while she's…

Review of T2 Trainspotting (2017)

By Robert Horton (590) for Seattle Weekly (293) on 23 Mar 2017

In one scene Mark revisits his celebrated Choose Life monologue and revs up a new one-but he comes across like a scold now, taking jabs at…

Review of I Am Not Your Negro (2017)

By Robert Horton (590) for Seattle Weekly (293) on 03 Feb 2017

Best of all are the vintage segments in which Baldwin perches in a cloud of cigarette smoke and lets flow his elegantly formed but passionate…
