Dr. Suess’s Ron & Jim Ruined Christmas
Read more: Dr. Suess’s Ron & Jim Ruined ChristmasSeveral times while watching the Ron Howard-directed How the Grinch Stole Christmas, I found myself wondering, “Who is this even for?” At 105 minutes, it’s a bit on the long side for kids small enough to actually enjoy.

Stars Behaving Badly: The Big Cube (1969)
Read more: Stars Behaving Badly: The Big Cube (1969)Eventually, if a man lives long enough, he will bear witness to great tragedy.

The Unsung: Freak 1, Death Wish (1974)
Read more: The Unsung: Freak 1, Death Wish (1974)He’s the one that started it all. Five films, a remake, and perhaps the entire ethos of 80’s Action. A single decision, on a crisp New York afternoon, unleashed the whirlwind.

Moana 2 (2024)
Read more: Moana 2 (2024)Swimming in circles. Ask for your money back, but only the dollars of your kid’s ticket back. What can I say except “You’re welcome”?

Read more: When Oscar Shit the Bed: Going My Way (1944)One of these days, hopefully while I still remain above ground, someone will write the definitive tale of why, for what appeared to be a period of several decades from World War II forward, Hollywood was utterly, hopelessly, and reverentially obsessed with Catholicism.

The Unsung: Joe, Marty (1955)
Read more: The Unsung: Joe, Marty (1955)Always leave the room on a high note. George Costanza knew it, the best and brightest live it, and Joe – just Joe, thank you very much – sure as hell had it coursing through his veins.

Wicked: Part One (2024)
Read more: Wicked: Part One (2024)I’m not a big fan of origin stories featuring villains. They always start out with the villain being good and, later, either being misunderstood – as Maleficent is in Maleficent, or completely unconvincing in their turn towards evil
