“Carry On”

7.6

A much better than expected thriller. Tight runtime, tight story… kept me engaged from beginning to end! Do they all start to rhyme with “Die Hard” after a while? Sure! The main thing is that the movie is entertaining, and this one delivers. Taron Egerton is a bit clunky as the lead at times, but Jason Bateman more than makes up for it, playing a bad guy no less! Well worth checking out.

“Woman of the Hour”

6.8

With this being Anna Kendrick’s debut in the director chair, and me loving Anna Kendrick, I went a little easier on it. Overall, I expected more… but I wasn’t completely disappointed. It has its moments where it really takes off and becomes truly creepy. That said, this subject had so much potential that I felt was missed and left us hanging a bit. A solid movie that had the potential to be great. “Late Night With the Devil” was my comp, and a much better film in my opinion.

“Incoming”

7.8

Just a good old fashioned raunchy high school coming of age comedy. Chef’s kiss. No more, no less. I was pleasantly surprise by how well this one nailed the ambiance of the genre and played it’s part perfectly. It didn’t take itself too seriously and didn’t overthink things.

Appropriate? Not in the slightest.

Hilarious? You bet your ass.
