13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi is an even-keeled telling of the events of that night with minimal political undertones sticking with the actual attacks. The performances are all well done highlighted by James Badge Dale and John Krasinski.
How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World is a well done conclusion to the nearly decade-long franchise featuring a well told, if not basic, story to go along with some beautiful animation and nice voice work by the ensemble cast.
Crank is a fun and rather entertaining flick even with the frenetic (though I know it’s in keeping with the adrenaline theme) direction, though works mostly for Jason Statham who does well even with some limited character development.

Greta was actually a disappointing movie. What could’ve been a fun little B-flick instead had a half-baked script and some rather forgettable performances from both Huppert and Moretz, the former never quite disturbing or menacing.

Happy Death Day 2U doesn’t make a whole lot of sense though in fairness, they set aside any of the science for the horror and comedy elements where the film does succeed quite well, this also makes for a solid double-header with the first film.
Cold Pursuit is kind of standard action-thriller fair for Liam Neeson and while the script and supporting characters aren’t the strongest, it is an enjoyable enough film.
Level 16 doesn’t feel like the most original sci-fi(ish) thriller but I did like some of the atmosphere writer-director Danishka Esterhazy brought to the table and the performances from Katie Douglas and Celina Martin were both impressive.
Earthquake is certainly one of the lesser of the disaster film of the 1970s and certainly the story and characters, despite a respectable cast, was the weaker point but I was at least impressed with some of the miniature and special effects work.
The Big Clock is a fun 1940s film noir-esque thriller that actually would probably play well today as it did then. The acting is fairly good, Ray Milland especially, and features a compelling and suspense-filled story.

The Seduction is an okay erotic thriller however not terribly memorable despite this being Morgan Fairchild’s feature film debut but kind of expected more of a cheese-fest.
