The Shape of Water (2017) 92% 9.5/10 EDIT “With visuals offering unique worlds that somehow weave into a fantastical whole, this film makes for one extraordinary water ballet.” – Richmond Times-Dispatch Dec 24, 2017 Full Review I, Tonya (2017) 90% 9.5/10 EDIT “With its black comedy/raw drama blend, Robbie's gritty, stellar performance plus Janney's Medea of a mom, I, TONYA proves to be one hellava holiday on ice.” – Doddle Dec 8, 2017 Full Review Gifted (2017) 73% 7.5/10 EDIT “It's these particular characters, with their specific emotional make-up and personality - not to mention Fred, the fat monocular tabby -- that make Gifted all the more rewarding.” – Doddle Apr 12, 2017 Full Review Cameraperson (2016) 100% 8/10 EDIT “presents a searing, cinematic globetrot that looks at the vestiges of war, poverty and abuse-yet offsets the despair with sparks of beauty, humor, kindness. It's the human condition both at its worst...and at its best.” – Doddle Jan 20, 2017 Full Review Paterson (2016) 96% 9/10 EDIT “Driver's Paterson doesn't blast his presence. Rather, he drifts into view, an unassuming shadow that only grows larger over the length of the film.” – Doddle Dec 28, 2016 Full Review Hidden Figures (2016) 93% 8/10 EDIT “Strong female characters spitting in Jim Crow's eye. Hearkens back to the feel-good, morally-upright films of an earlier day.” – Doddle Dec 23, 2016 Full Review A Monster Calls (2016) 86% 7/10 EDIT “As solid as this particular Monster Tree is, some broken branches cry out for pruning.” – Doddle Dec 22, 2016 Full Review Collateral Beauty (2016) 14% 3.5/10 EDIT “If 'Collateral Beauty' is in the eye of the beholder ... perhaps it's best to look away.” – Doddle Dec 16, 2016 Full Review Jackie (2016) 87% 8/10 EDIT “Unlike previous projects, this unique film zeroes in on a particular timeframe, in which the indelible legacies of both Jack and Jackie Kennedy first came to pass.” – Doddle Dec 7, 2016 Full Review Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them (2016) 74% 5.5/10 EDIT “Even with the Potter pedigree, creator Rowling, director Yates and talented Redmayne ... Fantastic Beasts isn't all that fantastic after all. Harry would be disappointed.” – Doddle Nov 18, 2016 Full Review Almost Christmas (2016) 49% 4.5/10 EDIT “The fact that this Xmas family film released on Veterans Day makes it unique. Sadly, that's about it.” – Doddle Nov 11, 2016 Full Review The Accountant (2016) 53% 6/10 EDIT “The cluttered plot aside, factoring in an uncommon protagonist (well-played by Affleck) and 2 surprise twists in the 3rd act, the film still lands in the black.” – Doddle Oct 14, 2016 Full Review Kevin Hart: What Now? (2016) 75% 8/10 EDIT “So screamingly funny, your own raucous laughter just may drown out some of Hart's lines. Rewind needed here.” – Doddle Oct 13, 2016 Full Review The Birth of a Nation (2016) 72% 6.5/10 EDIT “While the depiction of monstrous cruelty and the battle scenes are highly effective, the film suffers from a lack of nuance.” – Doddle Oct 6, 2016 Full Review Storks (2016) 65% 6/10 EDIT “This baby buddy comedy offers a flock of high-flying fun. But filmmakers may want to issue a blanket apology to parents ... how are they going to explain where babies come from now?” – Doddle Sep 23, 2016 Full Review The Royal Road (2015) 82% 8/10 EDIT “It is at once a static, yet highly moving film.” – Doddle Sep 6, 2016 Full Review In Order of Disappearance (2014) 86% 8/10 EDIT “Martin McDonagh meets Quentin Tarantino ... yet bristles with its own brand of quirk” – Doddle Aug 31, 2016 Full Review Suicide Squad (2016) 26% 4.5/10 EDIT “Don't think of "Suicide Squad" as the villainous flipside to "X-Men" ... instead, think Zzzzz-Men.” – Doddle Aug 4, 2016 Full Review Iris (2014) 98% 8.5/10 EDIT “So much more than meets Iris's bespectacled eyes: looking at self-determination, relentless individuality, devil-may-care creativity, romance, fame and mortality...all peppered throughout with delicious humor.” – Doddle Jul 29, 2016 Full Review Nerve (2016) 66% 6/10 EDIT “Succeeds as a suspenseful, yet cautionary tale that speaks to the screen-centric Generation Z. Hopefully, movies like Nerve ... may actually touch one.” – Doddle Jul 26, 2016 Full Review The Legend of Tarzan (2016) 36% 4.5/10 EDIT “Me Tarzan. You Jane. Movie dumb.” – Doddle Jul 1, 2016 Full Review The Look of Silence (2014) 96% 9/10 EDIT “The anemic excuses for participating in mass murder are sickeningly familiar, e.g., "I was just carrying out orders." Name a genocide, and these kinds of justifications bloom like wildflowers in an Indonesian jungle.” – Doddle Jun 24, 2016 Full Review Central Intelligence (2016) 71% 7/10 EDIT “Wild unorthodox teaming of a frenetic Kevin Hart running headlong into one substantial Rock, aka Dwayne Johnson.” – Doddle Jun 17, 2016 Full Review The Conjuring 2 (2016) 80% 6.5/10 EDIT “Wan's developed into a clever horror-meister, tinkering with the classic pacing of the anticipated bump in the night. Solid performances from Farmiga and young Madison Wolfe strengthen the sequel.” – Doddle Jun 10, 2016 Full Review Keanu (2016) 78% 8/10 EDIT “For moviegoers who haven't seen this brilliant duo before, this cinematic experience may be akin to catnip. And you thought cat videos were fun ...” – Doddle Apr 29, 2016 Full Review
