Avatar: Fire and Ash
‘Avatar: Fire and Ash’ feels much like what we’ve seen before, only more. But that more will leave family viewers feeling burned.
Dolly
‘Dolly’ is devoid of ethical merit and proud of it. It is a ridiculous exercise in gore production—and unapologetically so.
Wuthering Heights
Sensual sex scenes, foul language, domestic abuse and a graphic miscarriage scene doom this adaptation of Emily Brontë’s ‘Wuthering Heights.’
The Mummy Returns
‘The Mummy Returns,’ well, returns to cinemas for its 25th anniversary since release—with all its cobwebbed content, too.
Mike & Nick & Nick & Alice
‘Mike & Nick & Nick & Alice’ is not a forgettable film. But its content concerns make it a movie that you might wish you could forget.
Stand by Me
‘Stand by Me’ is remembered as a classic coming-of-age pic. But it’s also a problematic trek down the tracks.
How to Make a Killing
‘How to Make a Killing’ holds a subtle, surprisingly biblical view of money. But its content issues will harm a viewer’s investment in it.
Send Help
In Sam Raimi’s ‘Send Help’, blood and gore pass for humor in what is essentially a drawn-out, gory revenge fantasy.
Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man
The artistic merits of ‘Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man’ are blanketed with grimy content—including bloody violence, foul language and murky spirituality.
Cold Storage
‘Cold Storage’ is a “been there, vomited that” derivative of many goo-spew flicks that came before. Comedy? Well, not so much.
