“Ella McKay”

A feel-good political drama/comedy? As insane as that sounds – yes. A great one, at that!

Get ready to hate this husband with every fiber of your being. Punchable doesn’t even begin to describe him by the time the third act rolls around. The messiness of the family was relatable and I was able to find a great comfort in the imperfection of almost everyone on the screen. There was a realness here that really made me feel at home for an hour and a half, and left me a bit bummed out that the credits were already rolling. We all need a good scream from time to time… I’m with you, Jamie Lee Curtis!

“Twinless”

I guess this is one way to deal with your grief…

I genuinely did not see the third act coming! The two lead actors killed it in this tale of friendship and family, whether chosen or born into. A deeply personal study of relationships and psychology, and the complexity of dark humor within grief processing. Much deeper than I expected at the onset.

“Honey Don’t”

Was I mainly here to see Margaret Qualley? Yes. Yes I was.

Was the rest of the movie as good as I expected? Yes and no. It slips a little too deep into insanity at times for my taste, but with a style that kept me in it 100% from beginning to end, even if I didn’t fully grasp every twist and turn or the “why” behind half of what happened on the screen.

“Caught Stealing”

Hey – Austin Butler almost has his Elvis accent kicked for good!

An absolutely wacky tale of mishap after mishap after mishap, until you stumble your way across the finish line, shaking your head and wondering how you made it to the end alive. A super fun, goofy, intense heist film with a surprising amount of dark humor mixed in seamlessly.
