Luca (2021) Kristian Harloff It's a sweet movie, there's no doubt about it... It's not as deep, it's simple, and that's okay.

A Quiet Place Part II (2021) Kristian Harloff I enjoyed the movie, but it does play more so... like a really good episode of a television show than a full-on movie.

Godzilla vs. Kong (2021) Kristian Harloff If you just go in to see a pure monster movie, you'll get it. I definitely recommend watching, on the biggest screen you can. Overall, I dug it.

Onward (2020) Kristian Harloff A really good movie, maybe not categorized as great, but really good. The emotions hit when they were supposed to and I was engaged the whole way through...Chris Pratt's character was the one I responded to most, as did my daughter...

Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker (2019) Kristian Harloff Way safer, no doubt...the whole trilogy has been a disaster...start-to-finish, it did not happen, that's just so clear...but this is rewatchabale, more fun than Last Jedi, and it plays off nostalgia...

4.5/5
Uncut Gems (2019) Kristian Harloff A well-written film, and one of the best crime films I've seen in a while. They take a lot of the tropes you expect and flip them on your head.

Marriage Story (2019) Kristian Harloff There are some legitimately funny moments in this, but because it's natural. I loved this movie...it's a big, emotional roller coaster, coupled with just how good the performances are...

The Lion King (2019) Kristian Harloff [The film] is gorgeous. It looks amazing. It sounds great. The performances are great. [But] it's the same movie. There's nothing new.

2.5/5
Men in Black: International (2019) Kristian Harloff The aliens are barely there...the villains are not effective...because of the script, the chemistry is just not there.

Shazam! (2019) Mark Ellis They did what they set out to do. Shazam is a fun kind of side-note in where we're going in DC...get excited if you're a DC fan.
Posted Mar 29, 2019  Edit critic review
4/5
Shazam! (2019) Kristian Harloff It's balancing out with Man of Steel for my favorite DC movie at this moment...for the most part, I was in from start to finish.
