The Belko Experiment
Belko’s real experiment may be on moviegoers: Just how much meaningless death can we stomach? Just how much gore can we endure?
Beauty and the Beast
Families that don’t embrace Beauty and the Beast’s pro-gay moments will be forced to grapple with how best to respond to them.
Kong: Skull Island
In some ways, this monster masher is an old-fashioned creature-feature. Still, it’s definitely not your grandfather’s kid-friendly kind of Kong.
Personal Shopper
Less a horror film than a moody, sensual thriller, the film delves into realms of the bizarre and forbidden.
The Last Word
The Last Word could use an addendum: This R-rated movie wants to say something, but it seems confused about what that message should be.
The Sense of an Ending
The Sense of an Ending is both a quiet cautionary tale and a narrative about an aging man trying to deal with his unfinished emotional business.
Logan
Logan is, in short, frustrating. It’s painfully bloody and oddly beautiful, insanely profane and strangely spiritual.
Tim Timmerman, Hope of America
Tim Timmerman, Hope of America mostly offers families a nice, watchable alternative to more salacious comedic fare.
Before I Fall
As the movie points out what it sees as typical teen girl behavior—including wild partying, obsession over appearance, casual attitudes about sex, and rampant, hurtful cruelty—we get quite an eyeful.
The Shack
Like the book it’s based upon, this cinematic story about a grieving man encountering God is almost certain to stir up controversy among Christians.
