All movie reviews written by Bernard Boo
-
Mavis!
A spirited tribute to a legendary singer so full of love she can't hold it in.
-
Miss You Already
This platonic love story is melodrama at its best though tacky humor threatens to sour the pot.
-
The Peanuts Movie
Charles Schulz's classic combination of humor and pathos is still a winner, and Snoopy's still adorable.
-
I Smile Back
A cruel character portrait that provides no meaningful insight as consolation.
-
Sembene!
A tribute doc too formal and academic to get fully caught up in emotionally.
-
Spectre
Standard, satisfying Bond fare that will please many, surprise none.
-
Suffragette
A modest, respectful film chronicling the dark days of the early suffragist movement.
-
Truth
On-the-nose drama plagues this otherwise thrilling, eye-opening look into the 2004 '60 Minutes' scandal.
-
Beasts of No Nation
A stunning, unflinching examination of a child soldier's ascension to manhood.
-
Experimenter
Sarsgaard mesmerizes in this playful journey into the mind of an outcast academic.
