Movie Review: ‘Sonic the Hedgehog 3’

Kurt JensenDecember 19, 20243 min read
In approaching the comic adventure “Sonic the Hedgehog 3” (Paramount), viewers will likely be expecting to witness more of the hyperkinetic antics that are the trademark of the Sega video game-based characters around whom the franchise is built. What they may not be bargaining for are complex layers of emotional pain.

Movie Review: ‘The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim’

John MulderigDecember 18, 20243 min read
Catholic moviegoers will naturally take an interest in any project related to the works of their renowned co-religionist, novelist J.R.R. Tolkien (1892-1973).

Movie Review: ‘Kraven the Hunter’

John MulderigDecember 18, 20242 min read
As strained as it is bloodsoaked and morally wayward, the would-be action adventure “Kraven the Hunter” (Columbia) is a hopeless dud. On the upside, moviegoers misguided enough to patronize the film will likely be too bored to be much corrupted by it.

Movie Review: ‘Y2K’

John MulderigDecember 12, 20242 min read
Twenty-five years on, is it time to wax nostalgic for the turn of the millennium? If the low-minded disaster-themed comedy “Y2K” (A24) is anything to go by, the answer is a resounding “No.”

Movie Review: ‘Mary’

John MulderigDecember 6, 20242 min read
The life of the Blessed Mother, from before her birth to the flight into Egypt, is recounted with varying levels of artistic adeptness in the uneven biography “Mary” (Netflix). Though the result is not always satisfying, the production overall is both reverent and engaging.
