Tactful until it isn’t, Jason Reitman's "Tully" is decidedly slight but not without its strengths as a candid character study.

Ten years into its chokehold on blockbuster culture, Marvel Studios is finally reaching the ostensible end of a rainbow with “Avengers: Infinity War.”

An adaptation of the arcade button-masher of the same name, the film matches Dwayne Johnson’s physicality with a worthy scene partner: a gargantuan gorilla.

The story’s unwitting gumshoe is the fantastically named Jill LeBeau (Lola Kirke), an assistant to rising starlet Heather Anderson (Zoë Kravitz).

Recontextualizing the "American Pie" series' nastier attitudes, "Blockers" offers a compassionate — albeit sanitized — spin on the “first time” comedy.

With “Gemini,” writer-director Aaron Katz attempts to both indulge and investigate those historicized depictions of Los Angeles.

Sporadic incident can make for great pulp, but “Pacific Rim: Uprising” is too characterless to find worth in such wonkiness.

The potential for insular acts of selfishness to cause widespread tragedy is felt at every turn. "The Death of Stalin" is a pitch-black lament.

Derivative in ways that range from unimaginative to irresponsible, Wes Anderson's "Isle of Dogs" is a minor work of major hubris.

For director Armando Iannucci, it’s ripe for a punchline. "It is comedy and tragedy plus time," he stated in an interview with The Daily Californian.
