Marvel beat out the James Bond franchise with Black Widow as what feels like the first female James Bond movie.

This time around, we know the trick, and it just doesn’t have the same impact.

Godzilla vs. Kong layers ridiculous missions and human drama upon three battles that could have been YouTube videos.

Godzilla vs. Kong starts with a stomp and ends in the swamp.

Breathing is something that Nolan apparently expected you to take care of on your own time

Tenet ultimately leaves you mentally and physically exhausted yet ready to go back(wards) into the theater to repeat the experience.

Wraps a mystery in the trappings of a horror film and slowly peels back layer after layer of surprises hidden just out of sight.

Borrows heavily from other classics and still forges its own path for a fun romp deep in the ocean.

Ties up some loose ends, yet it doesn’t provide all of the answers to questions raised throughout this trilogy.

Gemini Man’s central gimmick and familiar plot come off more as Photoshop Man than a compelling drama.

Mixes high school romance and ho-hum heroics for a movie that’s still fun but leaves you wanting something better.

Comes off as lifeless and perfunctory despite two strong casting choices and a taste of the franchise’s comedy.
