Movie Review: ‘Blue Moon’

Kurt JensenNovember 3, 20253 min read
Existential issues: the fear of becoming outmoded, of dying unloved, of having one’s work forgotten, are wrestled with in the very loosely fact-based mix of comedy and drama “Blue Moon” (Sony Pictures Classics).

Movie Review: ‘Bugonia’

John MulderigNovember 3, 20253 min read
As anyone who saw director Yorgos Lanthimos’ 2023 fantasy “Poor Things” will be aware, the Greek-born filmmaker is capable of bringing deep weirdness to the screen. If further evidence of his capacity in that regard was needed, it’s provided in abundance by his latest offering, “Bugonia” (Focus).

Movie Review: ‘Regretting You’

John MulderigOctober 31, 20253 min read
Part teen romance, part emotionally convoluted soap opera, “Regretting You” (Paramount), director Josh Boone’s screen version of Colleen Hoover’s 2019 novel, is ill-suited to the youthful audience at which its source material was aimed. As for mature viewers, they’re likely to find the film’s proceedings both inauthentic and pat.

Movie Review: ‘After the Hunt”

John MulderigOctober 28, 20252 min read
Despite the occasional push-back against political correctness in Nora Garrett’s script, viewers committed to traditional values will find themselves adrift in director Luca Guadagnino’s psychological thriller “After the Hunt” (Amazon MGM). Considered from an artistic point of view, moreover, the film is talky, pretentious and tiresome.

Movie Review: ‘Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere’

John MulderigOctober 23, 20253 min read
A surprisingly substantive film, “Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere” (20th Century) is more a psychological study than a musical biography. As such, it invites those older viewers for whom it’s appropriate to engage with its sometimes troubling story intellectually and emotionally rather than be passively entertained.

Movie Review: ‘Roofman’

John MulderigOctober 15, 20253 min read
With its adroit blend of drama and comedy, the fact-based film “Roofman” (Paramount) effectively evokes a wide range of emotions. While the movie’s underlying values are mostly in order, however, a combination of restrictive elements — including some wayward behavior it briefly showcases — point to a strictly mature viewership.
