Style over substance.

I, Daniel Blake (2016) – Ace Mini-Review

A simple and moving film about the frustration and indignity of life on social assistance.

Hidden Figures (2016) – Ace Mini-Review

A feel-good, family-friendly movie about female empowerment – and black female empowerment in particular.

This science fiction story may not have a lot of hard science, but it does feature some hard linguistics – something I wish we saw more often.

The latest Star Wars film has a great premise, an interesting story, and a good visual style. Yet, oddly, it failed to grab me the way The Force Awakens did.

A smart and funny film with some unusually interesting and believable female characters.

Moonlight (2016) – Ace Mini-Review

February 26, 2017June 25, 20172 Comments

A simple story about the painful discovery of identity, skillfully performed and tastefully arranged. The result is quite simply a beautiful movie.

Deadpool (2016) – Ace Mini-Review

I was expecting Deadpool to be crass and irreverent. What I didn't expect was it to be that rare movie that makes crass and irreverent genuinely funny.
