All the Way: Oh my god is Bryan Cranston great as LBJ. A little straightforward, a little lengthy, but oh my GOD. ***
McFarland USA: Super super super basic but these Disney sports movies will tear me up, man. **1/2
The 13th: A fascinating look at the U.S. prison problem. The truth isn’t easily digestible but the facts are and that’s a good thing.
Barry: There will be a more nuanced take on Barack Obama in the future but I liked this, a walk through the life of a college-going Barack Obama with a lot of folks acting as surrogates for the forces that shaped the first President. ***1/4
Southside With You: This is a feature-length date with Barack and Michelle … there’s some interesting conversation and it’s shot well, but it also drags. ***
