Pokémon Detective Pikachu; Better than you’d expect. I want to experience more of what a Pokémon infused world would be like. Like a Roger Rabbit toon world, the film plays the combined elements wonderfully. Voice acting of Reynolds makes it all the better. Good fun; B
The Old Man & the Gun; Distinctively throwback in its storytelling & design. Actors shine in style of 70s filmmaking, quietly owning the screen & our hearts. Redford is a revelation, reminding us how great he is. The definition of “they don’t make ‘em like they used to.”; B+
