Primetime is a work of cinematic excess. It is a spectacle. However, this is a rare case where the style begets the substance.

There’s a simplicity to Leviticus that’s refreshing, especially as horror is expected to be deeper and meaner.

The domestic drama is familiar, but engrossing. With twists and turns abound as Gleb tries to confirm his suspicions. However, it is all to serve a dread-filled atmosphere of complacency.

The world the characters inhabit is rendered with such detail and texture that it’s easy to lose yourself in the warm, romantic glow. But it’s only a vehicle to explore their inner lives with the same carefulness.

Despite the pain and grief, you’ll never want it to end. You’ll want every character to go on as they were. At one point, Mari says: "I was prepared not to let you go when I met you. That means I lived a good life." All I can say is the feeling is mutual.

Hilarious but incisive in its reclamation of female rage in the face of patriarchal violence. You’ll laugh. You’ll cry. You’ll cheer. You’ll want to rage against the machine.

You, Me & Tuscany, or perhaps "My Big Fat Eat, Pray, Love Under the Tuscan Sun", is like a hearty Italian cheat meal. You know it’s bad for you. You know it’s empty calories. But do you savor every delicious bite? You’re damn right.

He talks a mile a minute, lies like his life depends on it (because sometimes it does) and makes decisions like consequences don’t exist. And for 149 glorious meteoric minutes, we want nothing more than for Marty to keep going.

Fans of the first movie will find the expansion of the boundaries of its world and the exploration of its characters’ wounds in “Black Phone 2” engaging. Is that enough nightmare fuel to hypnotize anyone else? Perhaps not.

Tyriq Withers is a movie-star-in-the-making and very often when the movie works, it's because of his performance. But it's all wasted potential. It's all greatness gone to waste.
