Not Okay, the new film from Quinn Shephard, is a dark comedy that also has something to say about social media influencers. Let’s get one thing out of the way first: there is nothing funny about terrorist attacks or school shootings. Quinn Shephard just happens to find the funny in the most absurd of situations: a wannabe influencer, Danni Sanders (Zoey Deutch) who pretends to be in Paris just before there is a major terrorist…

The Princess: Joey King Is An Action Hero

The Princess subverts the fairytale genre expectations and makes Joey King an action hero in her fight to save the kingdom from enemies. Now that 20th Century is under the Disney umbrella, does one count as a Disney princess if 20th Century releases the film? If so, this is the bloodiest movie to ever feature such a princess. Everywhere you look, there’s blood! Fights, not songs from Alan Menken, Howard Ashman, or the Sherman brother,…

The Valet Has Potential But Too Long

The Valet is another English-language film adapted from a hit French film but this film suffers by having too long of a run time. If the film had run about an hour and a half, no problem. However, it could certainly stand to be tighter and lose a few scenes. I mean, you have a few scenes here and there that really add nothing to the overall film. If the film wants us to focus…
