Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness – It takes a while to get going and doesn’t quite add up to a great movie. There are oddly placed scenes and the usual clunky dialogue with less than stellar CGI that is becoming more and more problematic as the MCU goes on. Sam Raimi brings together a very familiar cast with a few new faces and creates one of the most promising Marvel movies to date because of the doors it opens for the rest of the multiverse. While he was allowed to push the PG-13 rating to its limit, the implied horror and brutality fell short of expectations.

The Lost City
The Lost City – A dumb love story with some action bolted on without any real chemistry from the main cast. The Lost City is not worth the ticket price but might be worth the rental for a rainy afternoon.

2001: A Space Odyssey
2001: A Space Odyssey – A film for the ages with an genre-defining visuals, iconic dialogue, and awe-inspiring soundtrack from one of the greatest directors of all time.
The Northman – an unapologetically violent and masterfully made story about revenge, The Northman is not for the faint of heart. Animalistic and brutal scenes paired with stellar casting and an otherworldly soundtrack make this new adventure from Robert Eggers a can’t miss experience from start to blood soaked finish.
Everything Everywhere All at Once – An astounding and refreshing A24 sci-fi dark comedy starring Michelle Yeoh, Ke Huy Quan, Jamie Lee Curtis and Stephanie Hsu.
Morbius – A total trainwreck from start to finish, this Sony MCU entry is by far one of the worst movies of the year and it’s only April. Popcorn movie or not, this is not a good way to spend your box office time and money.
Weekend Watchlist – This weekend is a great time to see another great Batman story, a painful and award worth performance in Spencer, and a hilarious and morbid crime caper in Fargo.

Isle of Dogs- Wes Anderson’s claymation story about a boy searching for his dog is fresh and crisp with plenty of attention to detail and an awesome cast. #IsleOfDogs
The semi faithful adaptation
of the beloved video game franchise is converted into a
decently entertaining video game movie that is
hamstrung by awkward casting. Ruben Fleischer
manages to take weak concepts and turn them into
incredibly marketable movies and this is no exception.
Don’t rush to the theater to see it, but don’t skip it on
your next movie night.
The Hobbit 1977 – An animated version of the beloved novel from JRR Tolkien, this older and very stylistic approach to Middle Earth is a blast from the past in both animation and film making.
