Movie reviews of George Wolf

Finds a delicate balance in its travels, one that understands the allure of a volatile facade. Review

As deeply as it cuts on a blunt, visceral level, Whose Streets? also benefits from a powerfully subtle context. Review

Has smarts, charm and some downright weirdness. Review

Mooney delivers a surprisingly touching performance... Review

The result will be appreciated only by the youngest viewers who just like watching the silly animals. Review

Not a pleasant film, but it is necessary. Review

The sermon is damned persuasive and the man has earned it. Review

It’s rarely more than amusing, the visuals can’t rise above average, and the “be true to yourself” mantra is entirely generic. Review

A poetic, moving testament to the certainty of time, the inevitability of death and the timeless search for connection. Review

Some of it is screamingly funny, and other times the film falls flat. Review

Can it dust off some well-worn genre tropes and entertain? Ten-four. Review

While Maud’s talent and ingenuity are in focus, and we see her rise above those who would cast her off as nothing but a burden, Maudie‘s spirit soars. Review

A bland if competently made screamer for the not-ready-for-R set. Review

A completely satisfying conclusion to a stellar group of prequels. Review

At times hilarious, sweet, emotional and even heartbreaking... Review

Cohen leaves plenty of contrived loose ends behind in search of the next forced gag. Review

While all the films have been pleasantly amusing, part 3 may actually land the greatest number of solidly funny gags. Review

The comedy is dark and biting, the performances sharp and well-defined. Review

Loses the chance to show us the depth that made him an icon. Review

Rebounds nicely, but still can’t match the meaningful substance of Pixar’s best. Review

At times tense, loving, and even goosebump-worthy, Megan Leavey is a fine reminder that family comes in all breeds. Review

In asking those unsettling questions, It Comes at Night becomes a truly chilling exploration of human frailty. Review

With Cranston, the man makes it worth watching, even when the show can’t quite keep up. Review

Through subtle storytelling and stellar performances, it finds meaning in places rarely explored this effectively... Review
