“The fight choreography was solid, almost to the level of the first season of Daredevil.” Byron McNeal, On The Reel On Tumblr

THE ODYSSEY

The Odyssey is one of the classics of Western literature. Nolan might have asked what made it endure, rather than treating it as if this was the cinematic equivalent of a Classics Illustrated comic book.” Daniel M. Kimmel, North Shore Movies

“I also had issues with Damon’s performance. He’s seems to be caught between the Scylla and Charybdis of Nolan’s direction of  the character. Damon seems to have been recruited to be both a blank slate ‘Everyman,’ and Jason Bourne by way of Genghis Kahn–but he hasn’t found the through line. ” Joyce Kulhawik, Joyce’s Choices

CORONER TO THE STARS

Coroner To The Stars is a fascinating look at someone who didn’t seek the spotlight but whose professionalism and high standards would not let him avoid it.” Daniel M. Kimmel, North Shore Movies

UNIDENTIFIED

“There are plenty of jaw-dropping moments in the movie long before you get to the ending, most of them relating to the way women are treated in the patriarchy of the Middle East.” John Black, Cinekong

 

SUPERGIRL

“Milly Alcock’s non aussie accent was flawless.” Byron McNeal, On The Reel On Tumblr
