Dune (2021)
Dune feels like the first entry of an epic saga based on both its stellar visual style and respect for its incredible source material.
Rating: 4.5/5
No Time to Die
While the villain Safin and new 007 Nomi definitely could’ve been handled better, No Time to Die strikes an excellent balance between spectacle and focus on the character of James Bond.
Rating: 4/5
Venom: Let There Be Carnage
Let There Be Carnage’s focus on characters and relatable stakes is refreshing, but the Carnage vs. Venom conflict doesn’t seem like that big of a deal and I left the theater with more questions than answers.
Rating: 3/5
Blue Bayou
Despite some major flaws in plot structure, Blue Bayou effectively gets you emotionally invested in the story of a person unjustifiably asked to leave this country, that's wrapped in an interesting visual style and layers of symbolism.
Rating: 3.5/5
