The plot is silly, at times preposterous. But that’s not unexpected for an old-fashioned popcorn movie, a Saturday-matinee serial writ large.
Movie Review: ‘The Croods: A New Age’
The most entertaining Stone Age family since the Flintstones returns to the big screen in “The Croods: A New Age” (Universal), a delightful animated comedy suitable for almost all ages.

Movie Review: ‘Martin Eden’

Movie review: ‘Tenent’
“Tenet” can be enjoyed as an overstuffed globetrotting adventure. Think James Bond on Red Bull, only this time the villain is pursued in the past as well as in real time.
