Honey Don't

‘Honey Don’t’ seemingly doesn’t complete its story

October 22, 2025October 22, 2025 John Hansen Movies

Movie review: Though Coen’s film has appealing pieces, it leaves so many of them unconnected that you’d think this was a TV pilot.

Vicious

Bertino’s latest ‘knock at the door’ horror is ‘Vicious’-ly boring

October 15, 2025October 15, 2025 John Hansen Horror Movies

Movie review: It’s no fault of Dakota Fanning or even the technical craftsmanship. “Vicious” simply makes no narrative or thematic sense.

M3gan 2.0

‘M3gan 2.0’ an exposition-heavy trek through AI fears

September 30, 2025September 30, 2025 John Hansen Movies

Movie review: Though not as stuck in the mud as “Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning,” this is another SF film where chatter outstrips action.

Eden

‘Eden’ can’t quite match the story’s real-world intrigue

September 27, 2025September 25, 2025 John Hansen Movies

Movie review: The worst part of humanity might be that you can’t escape it, either without or within, in Ron Howard’s historical drama.

Weapons

‘Weapons’ of mass horror entertainment

September 13, 2025September 13, 2025 John Hansen Horror Movies

Movie review: Zach Cregger’s followup to “Barbarian” doesn’t have the same thematic impact, but it’s another fun ride.

Together

‘Together’ turns the push-pull of a relationship into something scary

September 12, 2025September 11, 2025 John Hansen Horror Movies

Movie review: But this Dave Franco-Alison Brie collaboration is also rather fun and has great special effects.

Read more
Nobody 2

‘Nobody 2’ captures the emotional struggle for work-life balance

September 9, 2025September 9, 2025 John Hansen Movies

Movie review: Yes, he’s thoroughly trained to kick butt, but the biggest enemy – life – keeps coming at Bob Odenkirk’s Hutch.

Read more
Naked Gun 2025

‘Naked Gun’ 2025: By god, it is funny after all

September 5, 2025September 5, 2025 John Hansen Movies

Movie review: Though the bar set by the 1988 Leslie Nielsen classic is unreachable, this legacy sequel mostly captures the tone and connects on gags.

Read more
I Know 2025

‘I Know What You Did Last Summer’ ’25 struggles to set its hook

September 4, 2025September 4, 2025 John Hansen Horror Movies

Movie review: Though not without its good points, the fourth film in the saga raises an empty net in its final-act execution.
