Mielants’ film does a lot with little dialogue, setting the stage for something rich and thought-provoking. Director Tim…

School shootings continue to happen. It’s tragic, heartbreaking, and often feels a little desperate to watch things unfold and the cycle of violence repeat itself. Far from being a film that capitalizes on the shock value of such a devastating event, The graduates is a low-key story that focuses on the aftermath – healing, grief, and trying to move on are at the heart of this character-driven narrative.

Writer-director Steve McQueen has become an expert at making films about lost characters trying to find their way back to their families. He did this with 12 years of slavery and he’s doing it with his last resort, Blitz. The historical drama is set in 1940, during Nazi Germany’s blitz against Great Britain. Sometimes harrowing and traumatic, McQueen never shows the moment the attacks take place. Still, there are close-ups of the weapons the Germans unleashed on London’s civilian population that foreshadow exactly what will come next. Blitz It’s a well-made film that, with a few exceptions, rings hollow. Release…
I love morally ambiguous films. They offer a lot of food for thought about what we would do if we were in the main character’s situation, and they open the door for debate about the questions they present. This is essentially Juror #2. It’s Clint Eastwood’s modernity 12 angry menalthough it does offer a plot twist that complicates the central case beyond discussing one man’s guilt. The film, which may or may not be Eastwood’s last, makes us jurors as we begin to question the information we are given and who is providing it. It’s an imperfect film that intrigues…

It’s a struggle to see actors I know are good starring in a film that clearly isn’t. This is the case of Robert Zemeckis Here. It’s an hour and 45 minutes of Tom Hanks, Robin Wright, Paul Bettany and others acting in a way that can’t be taken seriously and almost seems fake. The aging is jarring and noticeable, especially when we have to hear 68-year-old Hanks’ voice coming out of what should be an 18-year-old’s mouth, and the film is poorly lit. It’s such a soulless film that I questioned the point of it. Director Robert Zemeckis Release date…
