The film is not smart enough, not thrilling enough, and the whole story feels like a cop out born from marketing hype rather than one grown from well thought out scientific reasoning. It’s a dud.

“Goon: Last of the Enforcers”
“Goon: Last of the Enforcers” is pointless, boring, and lacks originality and magic.
“Maze Runner: The Death Cure”
If this grossly tedious and nearly unwatchable film is meant to be an epic finale to the popular young adult series, it fails on all accounts.
“A Futile and Stupid Gesture”
The sometimes goofy and oftentimes playfully irreverent retelling of Doug Kenney’s life story seems to fit the man well. Fans of the Lampoon era and their later offshoots will find much to savor here.
“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.
“Search”
“Search” bows to average moviegoers who aren’t in the business of challenging themselves, and this movie has all the subtleties of a t.v. movie of the week.
