BOFCA REVIEW ROUNDUP: 5/30/2025
BRING HER BACK
“The reactions were opposites: on one side of the theater, people groaned in pain and disgust at the gory events unfolding on the screen, while on the other side, I sat, moaning in boredom and frustration over the confusing mess of a movie I was wasting my time on.” – John Black, Cinekong
KARATE KID: LEGENDS
“The story felt like 2 separate movies, as seems to be the case with most of these nostalgia bait, I mean legacy films.” – Byron McNeal, On The Reel On Tumblr

MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE – THE FINAL RECKONING
“Not to be a spoilsport, but this latest film in the series is more like a big-budget version of old-time movie serials, where characters facing certain death at the end of one chapter were miraculously saved in the next.” – Daniel M. Kimmel, North Shore Movies
FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH
“Looking back on it afterward, Fountain Of Youth is as unbelievable as most other action adventure films. Yet by offering up engaging characters and healthy doses of humor along with the chases and stunts, it makes it easy to go along for the ride.” – Daniel M. Kimmel, North Shore Movies

CLOWN IN A CORNFIELD
“It is filled with creepy clowns and features plenty of gore and some inventive kills. Still, it also has a strong story, thanks to the novel it is based on by Adam Cesare, brought to life by a talented cast of young actors like Katie Douglas and Carson MacCormac, and veteran character actors like Will Sasso and Kevin Durand.“ – John Black, Cinekong

ON SWIFT HORSES
“The good news is that you get not one but two movies when you go see On Swift Horses…The bad news is that neither story is developed enough to stand on its own.” – John Black, Cinekong
THE TROUBLE WITH JESSICA
“The Trouble With Jessica is less about the dead body than about the problems of the other characters, and how far they’re willing to go to get out of an increasingly messy situation.” – Daniel M. Kimmel, North Shore Movies
THE SHROUDS
“The Shrouds is a slow burning film that will either draw you into its exploration of the human condition, or leave you frustrated with its self-contradictory storytelling. As with Cronenberg at his best, he is using horror/SF tropes to tell us something about ourselves.” – Daniel M. Kimmel, North Shore Movies
