- DirectorBaran bo OdarStarsJamie FoxxMichelle MonaghanDermot MulroneyA cop with a connection to the criminal underworld scours a nightclub in search of his kidnapped son.Bland and forgettable garbage. Nothing in this movie is anything worth praise, and is a giant waste of time.
Grade: F - DirectorD.J. CarusoStarsVin DieselDonnie YenDeepika PadukoneXander Cage is left for dead after an incident, though he secretly returns to action for a new, tough assignment with his handler Augustus Gibbons.A fine airplane movie, keeps you entertained with it's stupidity but characters and story are nowhere to be found. Action is supposed to be the centerpiece here, but when it is this scattershot and over stylized it is hard to keep interest.
Grade: C- - DirectorM. Night ShyamalanStarsJames McAvoyAnya Taylor-JoyHaley Lu RichardsonThree girls are kidnapped by a man with a diagnosed 23 distinct personalities. They must try to escape before the apparent emergence of a frightful new 24th.Split is a perfect example of carefully balancing intense drama, dark humor, and a compelling character study of a truly damaged human being. James Mc Avoy seamlessly juggles nine major characters through the entire film against a very nuanced performance by Anya Taylor Joy as a broken teen struggling to stay alive. The cinematography and music make great utilization of tension between these two leads, and ultimately this storyline is what propels this film through some pacing problems and bland supporting actresses. I would also say that while the tone of contained drama is kept steadily through the majority of the film, the last thirty minutes really try to go beyond what made the ludicrous plot and ends up becoming more supernatural rather than the original intent of being frightening. However, the last minute really explains some of the choices that were made in the third act are purposeful, and in result is rewarding. The first "good" movie of 2017.
Grade: B - DirectorPaul W.S. AndersonStarsMilla JovovichIain GlenAli LarterAlice returns to where the nightmare began: The Hive in Raccoon City, where the Umbrella Corporation is gathering its forces for a final strike against the only remaining survivors of the apocalypse.Like a video game cutscene on crack, this convoluted wreck of a film is only here to give you a headache with a untitelligable plot, some of the worst editing I have ever seen (each shot doesn't last more than a second), and a script as confused as the "actors" in the film (if you can even call it that)
