Better Call Saul: Season 2

Another one for the history books: a sophomore effort better than the freshman start.

The Jungle Book

Did they think they could distract us from that ending with truly realistic animals?

The Man Who Knew Infinity

Took them long enough to make this film. Unfortunate that it's a slight one.

Ghostbusters (2016)

It's not a good remake when the only decent joke is a soup joke. Told multiple times.

Ahhhh - an origin story that's a story, not a collection of action sequences.

Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life

So much to say but I'll just say this: thank you for letting us accept that everyone has aged.

Whoever designed the alien's construction of sentences deserves an Oscar.

Her Wild Oat

As with so many forgotten silent treasures: startlingly funny and astonishingly stylish.
