‘Digger’ Review: Tom Cruise and Alejandro G. Iñárritu Are a Match Made in Showboating Hell in a Shallow Satire Insufferably Pleased With Itself (opens the original)
Read excerpt
At last, a climate crisis satire so smug and bombastic it makes Adam McKay’s Don’t Look Up seem almost innocuous. Digger is basically what happens when you put two outsize egos together with nobody holding the reins to keep their most self-indulgent impulses in check. Piloted by a spectacularly obnoxious Tom Cruise, who evidently spent hours in the makeup chair each day to look his age, Alejandro G. Iñárritu’s wannabe Dr. Strangelove is a heavy-handed cataclysm scenario built around the blunt po
‘Godzilla Minus Zero’ Review: Monster Movie Genius Takashi Yamazaki Returns With a Crackling Kaiju Epic Every Bit as Exciting as Its Predecessor (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Writer, director and VFX wizard Takashi Yamazaki three years ago reinvigorated Japanese production titan Toho’s seven-decade kaiju franchise with Godzilla Minus One, which delivered amply on monster mayhem with sophisticated (and Oscar-winning) effects, but perhaps more importantly, grounded the creature feature in affecting humanistic drama. By dividing the film’s attention between mass destruction and the raw pain of post-WWII trauma, reconstruction and societal reintegration — not to mention
The Best Films of the Fall Festivals: THR Critics’ Picks (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Along with Sundance in January, Berlin in February and Cannes in May, the fall festival trifecta of Venice, Telluride and Toronto almost invariably yields many of the films destined to keep percolating in the conversation from critics’ group awards in December all the way to the Oscars mid-March. This year’s crop was way lighter than usual on major contenders, but The Hollywood Reporter’s hard-working reviews team nonetheless found plenty to love. Five of our top 13 picks are documentaries, with
‘Bad Lieutenant: Tokyo’ Review: Shun Oguri and Lily James in a Meandering Franchise Entry From Takashi Miike That’s Semi-Coherent at Best (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The first in a planned series of international sequels, Bad Lieutenant: Tokyo gets things off to a mostly inauspicious start, despite enlisting the magnetic Shun Oguri as the latest incarnation of the seedy, morally hollow detective to whom the films owe their title. It’s closer in terms of plot machinations to Abel Ferrara’s 1992 original with Harvey Keitel than to Werner Herzog’s wildly eccentric 2009 follow-up, Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans, a snug fit for Nicolas Cage’s gonzo extr
‘The Life and Deaths of Wilson Shedd’ Review: Amanda Seyfried and Scoot McNairy Bring Raw Intensity to Tim Blake Nelson’s Death Row Drama (opens the original)
Read excerpt
One of the principal takeaways from Tim Blake Nelson’s bruising drama set in and around a maximum-security Oklahoma prison, The Life and Deaths of Wilson Shedd, is how infrequently we get to see Scoot McNairy in a meaty lead role that gives the reliably great character actor real complexity to chew on. McNairy plays a death row inmate who forms a connection with the equally compelling Amanda Seyfried’s creative writing teacher, a woman stuck in an abusive marriage and grasping to find a way out.
