I never was an avid watcher of the original Charmed series but watched a few episodes here and there, but generally enjoyed it. This newest version seems to have richer production values but I haven’t yet bought in to the core trio, but there is room to grow.
Tank 432 is certainly an interesting concept and a high-pressured psychological suspense-thriller, but instead it was meandering and the finale was anything other than satisfying.
American Pastoral receives, let’s say, mediocre reviews but for my money, I found all of the performances genuine and the story rather compelling, if not outright depressing and sad; for his first outing as director, Ewan McGregor did a fine job.
The Boy was a tad better than I expected but not by much. The performance by Lauren Cohan might be one of the better aspects as the screenplay could’ve used further development and a third act that was painfully bad, though it is a step up for William Brent Bell over his previous film, The Devil Inside (take that for what you will).
