The King
The King is far more than the history of Elvis - “He was born, he did things, he died.” It’s none of that. It’s a straight-up shock to the system. Elvis was America. He could have been the greatest, but his decisions resulted in decline and a sickly end - but a whole bunch of people still love him anyways.

Ant-Man and the Wasp
A throwaway villain only meant to add suspense to a lackluster plot underwhelms the first Marvel film to put a super heroine in the title. The impressive laughs are not strong enough to save what is only a placeholder in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Sicario: Day of the Soldado
The elements for an upper echelon, intense thriller are here; however, they are buried under contrived coincidence and one of the worst last half hours to a movie in recent memory.

Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom
Jurassic Park 5? Jurassic World 2? What the hell ever happened to subtlety? The majesty of Jurassic Park descends into a common monster movie. Director J.A. Bayona plunges off the pedestal I held him on and delivers a thud of a disappointment.

Eating Animals
"They calculate how close to death they can keep an animal without killing it." Eating Animals shocks and nauseates with its "things must change" message. But I understand if you want nothing to do with it. Ignorance is far more palatable.

Ocean's 8
Gary Ross decided it was time to let the girls take on the major heist genre. Instead of a fresh chance, they ride the coattails of the earlier Ocean trilogy and circle fashion and glamour; girls aren't allowed to steal from casinos yet.

American Animals
Bart Layton’s style of shifty editing and impressive directing raises the project up a few tiers. Everybody knows boys are capable of immense stupidity no matter race, creed, sexual orientation, or economic condition. It’s not the poor choices of bored, white boys which will engage the audience, it is the superior filmmaking.

The Gospel According to André
The never ending fashion doc carousel circles back on itself to chronicle a man who appears in the background of most of them. Vogue scores another film, but rather than celebrity worship or photo shoots, André Leon Talley takes us from segregated North Carolina to the pinnacle of chic.

Solo: A Star Wars Story
A truck load of whiz-bangs and an overload of fanboy homages to later films in the chronology, but Solo sticks to a lighter action/adventure atmosphere. Replacement director Ron Howard took George Lucas’s advice to heart, “Always remember, this is for 12 year-olds.”

It's not the talking dogs, it's the writing. One of the worst scripts in recent memory torpedos the 'can't miss' idea of making a canine Miss Congeniality.
