“The Hunting Wives”

7.6

So many twists and turns that it almost tips the scales into comical territory, but the drama feeds the dedication to hit “continue watching.” A solid Netflix whodunit series with a nice mix of ridiculousness to keep things interesting. Brittany Snow has a very interesting post “Pitch Perfect” career so far. You’ll say “what the hell am I watching?!?” at least once per episode.

“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.
