Movie Review: ‘Operation Fortune: Ruse de Guerre’
Movie & Television Reviews

Movie Review: ‘Operation Fortune: Ruse de Guerre’

John MulderigMarch 9, 20233 min read
The light-hearted tone of the stylish comic spy yarn “Operation Fortune: Ruse de Guerre” (Lionsgate) suggests that it should be approached in an equally relaxed mood.
Video Game Review: ‘Atomic Heart’

Video Game Review: ‘Atomic Heart’

Adele Chapline SmithMarch 9, 20234 min read
Although “Atomic Heart” is set in an alternate version of the Soviet Union, the release of a game primarily focused on Russian military activity of any kind within days of the first anniversary of that nation’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine registers as inappropriate at best and sinister at worst.

Movie Review: ‘Creed III’

John MulderigMarch 8, 20233 min read
“Creed III,” the ninth film in the “Rocky” series, is a thinking-person’s sports drama that will appeal even to those with no particular interest in well-choreographed slugfests.

Movie Review: ‘Jesus Revolution’

John MulderigMarch 2, 20233 min read

Movie Review: ‘Cocaine Bear’

John MulderigFebruary 25, 20232 min read
As scripted by Jimmy Warden, director Elizabeth Banks’ dark comedy, “Cocaine Bear,” starts out as an amusing ensemble piece about eccentric characters brought into contact by bizarre circumstances.

Media Notebook: ‘The Blood of Jesus’

John MulderigFebruary 23, 20233 min read
Simple, straightforward and even naive, “The Blood of Jesus” is also, at times, dreamy and ethereal.

Movie Review: ‘Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania’

John MulderigFebruary 17, 20233 min read
As suggested by its rather cumbersome title, there’s a lot going on in “Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania” (Disney). Unfortunately, the film, while free of gore and any really problematic material, ultimately adds up to less than the sum of its parts.

Videogame Review: ‘Risen’

Adele Chapline SmithFebruary 16, 20233 min read
Originally released in 2009, the action role-playing game “Risen” (THQ Nordic) is making a comeback for its debut on the Nintendo Switch.
