‘Superman’ sparks conversation, not confrontation — and that’s the kind of storytelling the world needs.

Despite its star power and the joke that is incompetent men lead governments today, ‘Heads of State’ uses recycled character dynamics and lackluster humor that makes it just another action comedy.

In ‘Godzilla Minus One,’ the famous kaiju is neither foul nor frightful so much as desiccated and hollowed-out, as writer-director Takashi Yamazaki substitutes Godzilla’s – and, correspondingly, man’s – familiar savagery for the even more common cliché.

It’s been a while since Pixar made something people would remember, and there is no doubt in my mind that their latest feature, ‘Elio,’ is one of those that will be forgotten in due time.

If you are a fan of the original ‘How to Train Your Dragon,’ then there’s a fat chance you’ll enjoy this live-action remake, because this version is almost a direct copy of everything that we’ve already seen before.

Though I would’ve liked to see ‘Mission: Impossible’ go out on a franchise high, that it ultimately fails to reach those heights is a testament to the filmmaking. They never saved their best for last.
