Because of the strength of the acting (Ronan’s in particular) and Gerwig’s unusual reworking of the novel’s chronology and ending, it deserves to be seen.

The last "Star Wars" movie is the most bloated and least satisfying of all the main-line adventures.

Although aspects of the storyline may seem familiar, the overall trajectory retains the capacity to surprise and shock with its bluntness.

Run Time: 2:09
U.S. Release Date: 2019-12-13
MPAA Rating: "R" (Violence, Profanity, Sexual Content)
Genre: Drama
Director: Clint Eastwood
Cast: Paul Walter Houser, Sam Rockwell, Kathy Bates, Jon Hamm, Olivia Wilde, Nina Arianda

Eastwood has crafted an engaging (albeit fictionalized) account of the triumph of ordinary men over the establishment.

MPAA Rating: "R" (Profanity, Sexual Content)
Genre: Drama
Director: Noah Baumbach
Cast: Scarlett Johansson, Adam Driver, Laura Dern, Ray Liotta, Alan Alda, Julie Hagerty, Azhy Robertson
