Movie Reviews

This “moving and memorable drama” is “buoyed by several outstanding performances and guided by values believing moviegoers will find thoroughly congenial.”

Given that it charts the rapidly deepening bond between a kid and a pooch, “Clifford the Big Red Dog” (Paramount) would not, presumably, be a film designed to please the great comedian W.C. Fields.

It may have been author Peter De Vries rather than baseball great Yogi Berra who first observed that “nostalgia ain’t what it used to be.”

A mixed bag, both ethically and cinematically, director and co-writer Chloé Zhao’s Marvel Comics adaptation “Eternals” (Disney) is presented on an undeniably large scale.

“The endearing animated comedy ‘Ron’s Gone Wrong’ gets a lot of things right. Principal among these is a lesson about the true nature of friendship.”

The gripping sci-fi epic “Dune” (Warner Bros.) arrives on screen with a notable real-life backstory.

There are many knights but not much shining armor in the grim historical drama “The Last Duel” (20th Century).

Daniel Craig’s James Bond is a busy man in “No Time to Die” (MGM/United Artists), the actor’s fifth big-screen outing as Ian Fleming’s iconic spy.
