ALADDIN 3477- I: THE JINN OF WISDOM
“Aladdin 3477- I: The Jinn of Wisdom takes the Aladdin story into the 35th century and then moves the action from the Middle East to southeast Asia. The question is whether there’s an audience for it.” – Daniel M. Kimmel, North Shore Movies
KRAVEN THE HUNTER
“I nearly got tetanus, from all the edge.” – Byron McNeal, On The Reel On Tumblr
THE LORD OF THE RINGS: THE WAR OF THE ROHIRRIM
“The story was basically, ‘We have Game of Thrones at home’.” – Byron McNeal, On The Reel On Tumblr
CHASING CHASING AMY
“Chasing Chasing Amy is a unique film about how a movie can affect people differently and how even the filmmaker can’t predict what that outcome could be.” – Daniel M. Kimmel, North Shore Movies
SONIC THE HEDGEHOG 3
“Fans will love it, so will kids and that’s what is going to keep the lights on for this franchise, giving people member berries by the truckload.” – Byron McNeal, On The Reel On Tumblr
A COMPLETE UNKNOWN
“Chalamet delivers the performance of the year conveying with astounding authority Dylan’s solitary, one-off intensity, free floating rebelliousness, elusiveness, brilliance, wisdom and wiseass humor, snarky persona, and extraordinarily convincing vocals without caricaturing the artist.” – Joyce Kulhawik, Joyce’s Choices
MOANA 2
“This felt like a bloated combination of Return of Jafar mixed with the pacing of the first Frozen movie.” – Byron McNeal, On The Reel On Tumblr
ARMOR
“Armor is the sort of movie that leaves you wondering why it was made in the first place. If Stallone didn’t do this for the money, let’s at least hope he was doing it as a favor for a friend.” – Daniel M. Kimmel, North Shore Movies
WICKED
“It won’t change anyone’s minds about musicals, but for people like me who had to fight the urge to sing out loud, you are going to have a Wicked good time!” – Byron McNeal, On The Reel On Tumblr
“The fact that (Erivo and Grande) both sing live on the screen instead of lip syncing to a prerecorded soundtrack deserves special recognition and a round of applause. In fact, people should feel free to applaud at the end of each musical number in Wicked the movie just as they would watching Wicked the Broadway musical.” – John Black, Cinekong
“Wicked may be the best movie musical since Chicago (2002).” – Daniel M. Kimmel, North Shore Movies
“Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo are nothing short of spectacular in these parts, and they, expertly guided by Director Jon Chu (Crazy Rich Asians) hold the movie in the palms of their hands.” – Joyce Kulhawik, Joyce’s Choices
