BOFCA REVIEW ROUND-UP: 01/05/2018

zeowqkusgat8rksy2rkuINSIDIOUS: THE LAST KEY

“This may be above average for the series, but that’s still only a C-plus.” – Daniel M. Kimmel, North Shore Movies

“Since it fails as much as it does, THE LAST KEY should probably be the last movie of a highly successful franchise.” – Jaskee Hickman, Cinematic Essential

“The film is obviously not without its issues, nor were its three predecessors, but if the INSIDIOUS franchise proves anything, it is that screw-it-all-riskiness pays dividends in the horror genre.” – Greg Vellante, Edge Boston

“Don’t go to see Spielberg grappling with why stories like these work dramatically. Go because this master still remains nimble no matter the slighted material given to him.” – Sam Cohen, Substream Magazine

“The spirit is always buoyant and joyful, even when we’re being lectured.” – Sean Burns, The ARTery

“THE POST may be getting overpraised because it seems to be in touch with the current revulsion towards more current government lies, but that’s just not enough. Adequate at best, this represents a missed opportunity.” – Daniel M. Kimmel, North Shore Movies

All The Money in the WorldALL THE MONEY IN THE WORLD

“Amazingly enough, Plummer’s the best part of the picture — shrewdly underplaying the rapacious oil tycoon as an occasionally avuncular, yet almost alien presence consumed by greed.” – Sean Burns, The ARTery

“Plummer is absolutely riveting… he walks away with the film.” – Daniel M. Kimmel, North Shore Movies
