The Brown Note Movie Review

Though travel and cooking shows are cat nip to me and barbecue shows the crack cocaine of cat nip, this laudable Australian documentary on the practice globally has a few flaws and is very uneven.

For me its three awful films in a row for director Edgar Wright, including this inexplicably lauded sub-Guy Ritchie twaddle.

I'm always amazed how many of these overseas vanity projects can spend tens of millions of dollars without getting a half decent screenplay, not awful though.

At least this entry into the cinematic disaster that is the DC universe has a watchable cast but not much else, passable compared to most of the others.

After the stunning first reboot and the wasted second film, a slight improvement.

A big fat zero out of ten for this competently but cynically made epitome of will-this-do ambition free cinema, that aims squarely for the ground and falls to it, with not one single ounce of inspiration or interest. Very boring, reductive, bad performances and characters, no real plot. The movie equivalent of the back of a cereal box and it made me angry how little effort they made here.

Positive reviews for this trash are proof there is no God, as it's one of the worst films I've ever seen. I like Seth Rogen but he has been responsible for some serious crimes against humanity.

If they had stuck with the wildly controversial premise, of Chris Pratt waking up Jennifer Lawrence on an interstellar flight, thus consigning her to a lonely death, just so he could have some company, this beautiful film could have been brilliant - sadly turning it into an action adventure film ruined it.

Fasion designer Tom Ford's second feature is a second nearly great film. This time a fascinating and flawed, very dark, neo-noir with a great cast.

It was beautiful to look at and listen to and intermittently powerful but director Barry Jenkins' "gay-black" drama was a wildly overrated and frankly quite dull film.
