Don’t Look Up

King Richard

(3 *) A fun movie until you understand that it isn’t completely truthful.
Licorice Pizza

(3.5 *) Alana Haim is a real gem, but the movie is a Hollywood-inside-joke.

(5 Stars) An exceptionally well crafted movie that moves you through multiple emotions all while exploring the complexities of social class.
Marriage Story
No Comments

Once Upon a Time in Hollywood

(3.5 Stars) A movie Of Hollywood, By Hollywood, and, most importantly, FOR Hollywood!
Knives Out
No Comments
(4 Stars) Does everything a mystery should do and then some. Sharp and witty.
First Reformed

(4 Stars) Ethan Hawke in a well-crafted mystery/thriller full of plot twists and turns. If you pay attention, you will be rewarded.
Vice

(3.5 Stars) Liberals will find humor and lots to support disliking Cheney. Conservatives, well, maybe you should avoid this one.
Green Book
No Comments
(4.5 Stars) Best Picture Winner and a compelling tale of two men, unlikely partners in a road-trip through the Deep South. One of the better movies of the year.
The Favourite
No Comments
(3 Stars) Although laced with fun and titillating moments throughout, the movie doesn’t deliver a totally coherent message.
Roma

(5 Stars) Probably the best movie of the year and a great example of excellence in all dimensions. A must-see film.
