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.

Movie Review: ‘Tron: Ares’

John MulderigOctober 10, 20253 min read
The sci-fi action movie “Tron: Ares” (Disney) represents the Mouse House’s second big-screen attempt to recapture the magic of what turned out to be a remarkably prophetic 1982 feature, now regarded as a cult classic. Unfortunately, the film is not an instance of the third time being lucky.

Movie Review: ‘The Smashing Machine’

John MulderigOctober 3, 20253 min read
For better or worse, the sports biopic “The Smashing Machine” (A24) registers as a highly realistic film. With both a real-life figure as its focus and a documentary as its source material, that may be unsurprising. But the low-key, unsensational approach adopted by writer-director Benny Safdie ultimately produces varied results.

Returning to the big screen for the first time in nearly eight years in “Anemone,” Daniel Day-Lewis plays this central figure, Ray Stoker. Day-Lewis also co-wrote the screenplay with his son, Ronan, who directed the film.

Movie Review: ‘Gabby’s Dollhouse: The Movie’

John MulderigSeptember 26, 20252 min read
Viewers allergic to cats, whether physically or by temperament, should steer clear of the colorful but cutesy musical fantasy “Gabby’s Dollhouse: The Movie” (Universal). So, too, should cynics, curmudgeons and anyone given to even occasional grumpiness.
