Movie Review: ‘The Breadwinner’

John MulderigJune 1, 20262 min read
Nate Bargatze, best known for his stand-up work, co-wrote and stars in the domestic comedy “The Breadwinner” (Sony). Although mostly wholesome, the film is also, unfortunately, sorely lacking in laughs.

Movie Review: ‘Pressure’

John MulderigMay 28, 20263 min read
For British meteorologist James Stagg (Andrew Scott), the central figure in the fact-based World War II drama “Pressure” (Focus), the “longest day” was probably not the eventual date of the Allied invasion of Normandy. Instead it was likely the day he had to advise that the greatest amphibious landing of troops in history be postponed.

Movie Review ‘The Madalorian and Grogu’

John MulderigMay 27, 20263 min read
It’s one battle after another for the title characters in the latest installment of the “Star Wars” saga, “The Mandalorian and Grogu” (Disney). But the combat is nongraphic and the film is free of anything off-color. As a result, this high-quality escapist adventure can be enjoyed by a broad spectrum of age groups.

Movie Review: ‘In the Grey’

John MulderigMay 26, 20262 min read
Writer-director Guy Ritchie puts a twist on the heist movie with “In the Grey” (Black Bear). Although clever, the film is also harshly violent. So it can only be endorsed for grown viewers who don’t object to a steady barrage of gunfire, the occasional explosion and the sight of blood here and there.

Movie Review: ‘Obsession’

John MulderigMay 18, 20263 min read
“More tears are shed over answered prayers than unanswered ones,” the 16th-century mystic St. Teresa of Avila is famously said to have observed. To judge by the horror film “Obsession” (Focus), something similar — but far more drastic — might be said about fulfilled wishes.

Movie Review: ‘Mortal Kombat II’

John MulderigMay 11, 20263 min read
Based on a video game series so notoriously violent that it helped inspire the establishment of the Entertainment Software Rating Board regulatory body, “Mortal Kombat II” (Warner Bros.) lives down to its blood-soaked heritage. Ostensibly concerned with the martial arts, the film ultimately revels instead in horrific mortality.
