The result is a compelling, often entertaining collage that captures a pivotal moment in Bourdain’s life with verve and energy but not great depth.

The heart of the "Star Wars" films has always been about delivering an adventure that would inspire the imagination of the 12-year-old in me, something that paid homage to the old action and fantasy movies I loved. "Solo" delivers on that.

It's a rom-com formula, but then turned brutal and violent — and with the kind of horror humor only Raimi can supply.

Written and directed by the husband-and-wife team of John Adams and Poser, along with their daughter Zelda, "Mother of Flies" is easily their most stunningly beautiful film.

"28 Years Later: The Bone Temple" reminds us that zombie films, at their best, have always been about what makes us human. And while it may not be a perfect allegory for current times, it does ask us to consider who the real monster is.

The Smashing Machine proves compelling and gritty, and offers a well-deserved tribute to Kerr, who appears briefly at the end of the film as himself. Johnson and Safdie do succeed in making Kerr’s name more memorable now that it had been.
