Reviews

    • octavia spencer Ma

      ‘Ma’

      Playing an eccentric stalker as if she were a real human being, Octavia Spencer roots a formula flick in something creepy.

    • Taron Egerton in Rocketman from Paramount

      ‘Rocketman’

      Dexter Fletcher fashions an ebullient monument to Elton John, featuring a committed turn from Taron Egerton.

    • Aladdin

      ‘Aladdin’

      Will Smith brings fresh attitude to the role of the Genie in Guy Ritchie’s high-risk, mostly rewarding live-action remake.

    • Big Little Lies Season 2 Review

      ‘Big Little Lies’ Season 2

      Even when “Big Little Lies” Season 2 is messy — and it is, more often than not — the mess at least feels like the point.

    • Julianna Margulies The Hot Zones

      ‘The Hot Zone’

      The grotesque hemorrhaging Ebola induces in its unlucky sufferers brings home the gravity of the story, and the courage of its players.

    • CENTRAL PARK FIVE

      ‘When They See Us’

      Ava DuVernay’s “When They See Us” immerses viewers in a tale with none of the gaudy fun that true crime often offers.

    • 'Deadwood: The Movie' Review: A Triumphant

      ‘Deadwood: The Movie’

      “Deadwood” gradually but deliberately rewards fans who have waited 13 years to find out what happened.

    • Beetlejuice review

      ‘Beetlejuice’

      The musical adds up to more than the film’s cynical goth fantasia by creating themes and characters (a few) worth caring about.

    • Hillary and Clinton review

      ‘Hillary and Clinton’

      If anyone could play Hillary Clinton, it’s Laurie Metcalf – and here she is, in Lucas Hnath’s “Hillary and Clinton.”

    • Burn This review

      ‘Burn This’

      Adam Driver and Keri Russell make sparks in a passionate dance of denial and discovery, in this Broadway revival of Lanford Wilson’s play.

    • Be More Chill review

      ‘Be More Chill’

      The Broadway “Be More Chill” feels more even and flows more smoothly than it did Off Broadway.

    • Video Game Review: 'Rage 2'

      ‘Rage 2’

      Where “Rage” tried to stretch a shooter across an expanse, “Rage 2” does the opposite and threads an expanse through a shooter.

    • ‘Mortal Kombat 11’

      'Mortal Kombat 11'

      Uncomfortable. Outlandish. Campy. Combined with the game’s complex, precise gameplay, it’s a damn good fighting game.
    • 'Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice' Review: Difficulty

      ‘Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice’

      It’s hard to shake the feeling that if it traded in some of its stubborn design cruelty for just a touch of empathy, it would be all the greater.
