“Paddington in Peru” is a marmalade sandwich of a movie. 

“Universal Language” is delightfully absurdist, with little moments in each story that both make sense yet defy expectations.

“Rounding” doesn’t quite make its own case, in terms of the symbolism it throws into the mix, but as a portrayal of a man falling apart from overwhelming stress it works quite well.

Hunt can only do so much with co-stars who either don’t or aren’t meant to have chemistry with her character.

“Witcher” diehards might well make do with “Sirens” as a consolation prize. But it does feel like settling for less.

It’s always disappointing when a film has an interesting premise, but its execution fails to live up to the ideas it puts forth.

The mixture may get a bit muddled at times, but it’s still pretty satisfying in a way that the blockbusters that actually make it to theaters nowadays rarely are.

“La Dolce Villa” is about as authentic an Italian experience as a night at the Olive Garden. 

This movie is anything but brave. It is the most feckless, spineless blockbuster of the last decade. 

This film is the essence of what makes Burnett’s hold on the American mythos peerless and exceptional.
