Movie Review: ‘Y2K’

December 12, 2024

Filed Under: Movie & Television Reviews

Twenty-five years on, is it time to wax nostalgic for the turn of the millennium? If the low-minded disaster-themed comedy “Y2K” (A24) is anything to go by, the answer is a resounding “No.”

Movie Review: ‘Mary’

December 6, 2024

Filed Under: Movie & Television Reviews

The life of the Blessed Mother, from before her birth to the flight into Egypt, is recounted with varying levels of artistic adeptness in the uneven biography “Mary” (Netflix). Though the result is not always satisfying, the production overall is both reverent and engaging.

Movie Review: ‘Moana 2’

The high-spirited Oceanaian princess who gave her name to a 2016 animated feature returns for further adventures in “Moana 2” (Disney).

Movie Review: ‘Gladiator II’

November 25, 2024

Filed Under: Movie & Television Reviews

Nearly a quarter-century after its predecessor premiered, “Gladiator II” (Paramount) takes moviegoers back into the ancient arena. The result is a spectacular but sterile historical epic whose unsparing depiction of life-or-death combat greatly circumscribes its appropriate audience.

Movie Review: ‘Here’

Lady of letters Gertrude Stein once famously observed of Oakland, Calif., the city in which she was raised, “There is no there there.” As it turns out, there’s not much there to the drama “Here” (TriStar), either.

Movie Review: ‘Wicked’

November 19, 2024
By John Mulderig
OSV News
Filed Under: Movie & Television Reviews

Considered purely from an artistic viewpoint, the lavish musical “Wicked” (Universal) represents a confluence of the best both Broadway and Hollywood have to offer. On a moral level, however, the film’s content, while largely free of overtly problematic material, nonetheless demands careful assessment.

Movie Review: ‘Red One’

November 18, 2024

OSV News
Filed Under: Movie & Television Reviews

The attempt to put Santa Claus in the middle of a lot of frenetic brawling and then wrap the whole thing up with a climactic sleigh chase leads to a hopelessly unbalanced tone in this ill-conceived holiday offering.

Movie Review: ‘Heretic’

November 13, 2024
By John Mulderig
OSV News
Filed Under: Movie & Television Reviews

Co-writers and directors Scott Beck and Bryan Woods’ chiller “Heretic” (A24) probes the nature of faith.
