This story of a cruise from hell is an achievement in satire that has much to say and does it well, wading through layers of stinging dialogue, sophisticated observations, and lots and lots of vomit.

FANATICAL ABOUT FILM!
Movies are our religion and the theater our church. Our gods are named Tarantino, Anderson and Scorsese.
We attend services 3-4 times a week and take our communion in the form of soda and popcorn. We offer up these reviews in hopes of pleasing our deities.
Please share your own comments on our reviews. We encourage all forms of respectful debate. We are, after all, “Fanatical About Film”!

“She Said”
Instead of offering new insight, the film fades into the void of forgettable procedural journalism films.
“Nanny”
A hauntingly nuanced, atmospheric tale about an undocumented immigrant seeking her own American Dream.
“White Noise”
Baumbach’s adapted script is loaded with witty intellectualism and patronizing dialogue, resulting in a project that comes across as being even more self-absorbed than usual.
“Violent Night”
The anti-Hallmark yuletide classic you’ve been waiting for.
“Food and Romance”
While this foodie romance features a predictable menu and a been-there, done-that premise, audiences aren’t being served a reheated plate of lukewarm leftovers.
