The Finest Hours

The title of this lackluster film does not describe the feeling you are left with when leaving the theater.

Anomalisa

This film may qualify as one of the worst movies to be nominated for an Oscar. See it and tell me if you disagree.

The Hateful Eight

I’m willing to bet that no Oscar nominated actress like Jennifer Jason Leigh has ever spent a film this bloody, bruised and beaten.

The Revenant

You know how Hugh Glass lived, but do you know how he died? Read Bernard DeVoto’s “Across the Wide Missouri” and find out.

Carol

Life confuses everyone in this film. But they are so pedestrian that it’s impossible to care about the outcome.

Concussion

If the NFL was honest, it would have to hide its head in shame.

Joy

This movie is a likable mess. See it quickly, as I suspect it will soon be forgotten.

The Big Short

This film is a reminder of the amoral nature of our free enterprise system.

The Danish Girl

Wouldn’t life be colossally better if we all adopted the mantra, “Live and let live”?
