The Odyssey (2026)

I'd call it Nolan's most accessible and easiest to enjoy since his Batman movies and Exhibit B for why everyone should be going to theaters more regularly in 2026 ("Project Hail Mary" was my Exhibit A). He's taken a centuries-old story full of battles, monsters, magic, and more, and made it as exciting and mesmerizing as it should sound on page, while also identifying key themes that make this parable still relevant for modern civilization. I didn't always find it as deep as I get the …

Sing to Me, Muse
Christopher Nolan continues to solidify his place as one of the greatest modern directors with The Odyssey. I have been a fan ever since seeing Memento (which I still consider a personal favorite) and the hits just keep coming: The Prestige, The Dark Knight trilogy, Inception, Interstellar, Oppenheimer and now, here we are, another grand spectacle that has all the hallmarks of yet another guaranteed award-winning masterpiece.

Super-Meh
Supergirl doesn't deserve all the hate it's been getting, but neither does it deliver much of a punch. It's a perfectly fine superhero film - Milly Alcock (Supergirl) and Jason Momoa (as Lobo) are the standouts but they are let down by an incredibly weak villain (Matthias Schoenaerts) and a derivative story (revenge - how quaint) and temu James Gunn in Craig Gillespie who really tries to capture that essence but continually falls flat.
The main crux of the story is that space pirate Krem …

Sufficiently thrilling B-movie that is what I wanted from that gator movie 'CRAWL' (2019). The shark attacks are scary and it racks up quite a body count. Don't look for character development outside of a collective need to weather the storm though.
