Movie Reviews
Dan Webster and Nathan Weinbender give short movie reviews.
-
Now on Netflix, “Rebel Ridge” is about a small town, a Marine, some cash and a corrupt sheriff. But it’s way more complicated than that. Nathan Weinbender says this is a solid thriller that also works as a portrait of systemic corruption in America.
-
“Beetlejuice Beetlejuice” represents a return to fun for Tim Burton and Michael Keaton, Dan Webster says in his review.
-
“Strange Darling” is a violent thriller that shows a tete-a-tete between a killer and a potential victim, and it’s already developing a cult following. Nathan Weinbender says it’s a stylish, twisty film that’s a lot of fun to watch unfold.
-
“Sisu” is both a study in violence and an exploration of legendary Finnish endurance, Dan Webster says in his review.
-
“Sing Sing” is a study of how theater gives prison inmates a path to mental health—and maybe redemption, Dan Webster says in his review.
-
“Kneecap” is a raucous Irish comedy about a controversial Irish hip-hop trio, starring the band members themselves. Nathan Weinbender says it’s a crowd pleaser with something more on its mind.
-
"Dìdi" explores the life of a troubled Taiwanese-American boy on the cusp of his first year of high school, Dan Webster says in his review.
-
“Cuckoo” is the latest in the recent string of artsy horror films, the story of a family experiencing odd goings-on at a German resort. Nathan Weinbender says that it’s made with terrific style and atmosphere, but the story doesn’t sustain itself to the end.
-
“A Quiet Place: Day One” is a study of one woman’s attempts to decide her own fate in a dystopian setting, Dan Webster says in his review.
-
“Robot Dreams” is a study of love, of connection and of loss as told through animation, Dan Webster says in his review.
