This isn’t a bad movie and it’s certainly not unwatchable, but it’s a definite stumble for the usually fantastic Zellners.

“American Animals”
This is an engaging true crime film that’s all about conflicting perspectives and is also thoroughly entertaining. And if you’ve ever daydreamed about plotting a robbery of your own, it will remind you that you probably aren’t as smart as you think you are.
“Uncle Drew”
It’s a cheery ray of positivity and a delightful summertime surprise in the sports film genre.
“Sicario: Day of the Soldado”
This film is subpar on every level. It almost seems unfair to compare it to 2015’s dream team behind the camera.
“Hearts Beat Loud”
Director Brett Haley and his longtime co-writer Marc Basch make sweet music once again in “Hearts Beat Loud,” a beautifully low-key, heartfelt, small scale story of how music aids us in speaking our inner truth.
“Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom”
This isn’t a great movie but it delivers a high-intensity energy that’s nearly impossible not to at least mildly enjoy — if you accept this sequel for what it is.
