Movie Review: ‘Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings’

September 8, 2021

Filed Under: Movie & Television Reviews, News, World News

A spry wit paces the elegant martial-arts showdowns in director and co-writer Destin Daniel Cretton’s Marvel Comics-derived adventure “Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings.”

Movie Review: ‘Candyman’

August 27, 2021
By John Mulderig
Catholic News Service
Filed Under: Feature, Movie & Television Reviews, World News

By the time of its conclusion, “Candyman” has degenerated into a fantasy of racial revenge wholly at odds with Gospel values.

Movie Review: ‘PAW Patrol: The Movie’

Catholic News Service
Filed Under: Feature, Movie & Television Reviews, World News

With the arrival of “PAW Patrol: The Movie” (Paramount), the titular rescue crew of pups bring their adventures to a multiplex near you. The result is a breezy, tenderhearted film suitable for all.

Movie Review: ‘The Protege’

August 20, 2021
By John Mulderig
Catholic News Service
Filed Under: Movie & Television Reviews, World News

Director Martin Campbell’s sleek yet brutal thriller “The Protege” (Lionsgate) not only depicts the activities of its principal characters, all of them assassins, in unsparing bloody detail. It also presents its own alternate version of morality.

Movie Review: ‘Reminiscence’

August 20, 2021
By John Mulderig
Catholic News Service
Filed Under: Movie & Television Reviews, World News

Part dystopian adventure, part neo-noir mystery, “Reminiscence” (Warner Bros.) is undone by its own sense of importance.

Movie Review: ‘The Green Knight’

August 4, 2021
By John Mulderig
Catholic News Service
Filed Under: Movie & Television Reviews, News, World News

An Arthurian legend comes to the big screen in writer-director David Lowery’s “The Green Knight” (A24). Lovely to look at but difficult to plumb, the film successfully immerses viewers in the atmosphere of the Middle Ages.

Movie Review: ‘Stillwater’

August 4, 2021
By John Mulderig
Catholic News Service
Filed Under: Movie & Television Reviews, News, World News

Matt Damon plays a man in search of redemption and renewal in the bleak yet touching drama “Stillwater”.

Movie Review: ‘Jungle Cruise’

July 28, 2021
By John Mulderig
Catholic News Service
Filed Under: Movie & Television Reviews, World News

For most of its running time, the lighthearted adventure “Jungle Cruise” (Disney), adapted by director Jaume Collet-Serra from a Magic Kingdom theme park ride, registers as a diverting, if insubstantial, fantasy.

Movie Review: ‘Old’

July 28, 2021
By John Mulderig
Catholic News Service
Filed Under: Movie & Television Reviews, World News

A day at the beach is no day at the beach in the thriller “Old” (Universal).

Movie Review: ‘Space Jam: A New Legacy ‘

July 15, 2021
By John Mulderig
Catholic News Service
Filed Under: Feature, Movie & Television Reviews, News, World News

There’s a strained tone to “Space Jam: A New Legacy” (Warner Bros.), director Malcolm D. Lee’s sequel to the 1996 sports comedy.

Movie Review: ‘The Boss Baby: Family Business’

July 7, 2021
By John Mulderig
Catholic News Service
Filed Under: Movie & Television Reviews, News, World News

Its chaotic plot and somewhat colicky disposition may leave viewers of the sequel “The Boss Baby: Family Business” (Universal) wishing the stork had stayed home this time.

Movie Review: ‘F9: The Fast Saga’

July 1, 2021
By John Mulderig
Catholic News Service
Filed Under: Movie & Television Reviews, News, World News

Nondenominational religious flourishes and an emphasis on the value of family offset occasionally intense showdowns and some unsavory vocabulary in “F9: The Fast Saga” (Universal).
