Morbius: Saw this. Still not convinced it happened. What a large use of resources for this Jared Leto as a vampire tweener movie. *
Cheaper by the Dozen: Steve Martin’s Cheaper by the Dozen movies from a couple decades ago were perfectly fine bordering on very good and even inspired, or so I thought as a teenager. Zach Braff and Gabrielle Union played the parents of the twelve kids for this Disney+ remake, which was perfectly fine but never felt like it was focusing on anything enough to go any further. I adored Scrubs too, but Zach Braff? No Steve Martin! **1/4
The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent: Tremendous actor (Nicolas Cage), tremendous premise (Cage plays himself), but the movie just never connected. There’s some fun individual bits but they got overwhelmed by this trying so hard to be some… normal movie. ***
The Man from Toronto: Woody Harrelson! Is playing an assassin on the run. Kevin Hart! Is playing the regular joe who gets caught up in it. It’s Netflix! **3/4
Rise: The story behind the rise of Giannis Antetokounmpo from poor kid in Greece to global basketball phenomenon is told here. That is what this movie is. It is not a documentary. It is a biopic. It is a very straightforward biopic. **1/2
