Movie Reviews
Dan Webster and Nathan Weinbender give short movie reviews.
-
Movie ReviewsAptly titled “The Drama” is a study of two troubled souls coming apart just when they should be bonding in marriage, Dan Webster says.
-
Movie ReviewsThe Oscar-nominated “Sirāt” takes viewers on a heartbreakingly surreal road trip through Morocco’s desert, Dan Webster says.
-
The Oscar-nominated French-Spanish thriller Sirāt is now available on digital rental platforms. Nathan Weinbender says it’s unflinching and brutal, but also a bit empty beyond its blunt-force style.
-
If you have fond memories of the video store, the documentary "Videoheaven" is for you. Director Alex Ross Perry uses hundreds of clips to show us the video store's rise and fall, and Nathan Weinbender says it's an engrossing academic visual essay.
-
Movie Reviews“Project Hail Mary” takes a serious subject and lightens it up with a buoyant Ryan Gosling performance, Dan Webster says.
-
“The Bride!” is Maggie Gyllenhaal’s genre-defying reimagining of “Frankenstein” starring Jessie Buckley and Christian Bale. Nathan Weinbender says it’s a gutsy attempt, but it doesn’t know what to do with its many weighty themes.
-
Movie ReviewsIt’s been two and a half decades, but the documentary “WTO/99” recalls when Seattle’s streets were wracked with protests, Dan Webster says.
-
Movie Reviews"EPiC: Elvis Presley in Concert," a documentary playing on regular and IMAX screens around the country, is director Baz Luhrmann’s second film about the King. Nathan Weinbender says it’s a freewheeling testament to Elvis’s enduring power as a performer.
-
Movie ReviewsEveryone already has a strong opinion about Emerald Fennell’s maximalist retelling of “Wuthering Heights.” Nathan Weinbender is no exception: He says the movie is dramatically murky, emotionally inert and generally unbearable.
-
Movie ReviewsNo matter what your stand is on the war in Gaza, Oscar-nominated “The Voice of Hind Rajab” is likely to break your heart, Dan Webster says.
