Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind

Jun 28, 2021 | Adventure, Fantasy

The most Miyazaki of Miyazaki films.

This 80s classic is beloved by many, for reasons which entirely escape me.

The strange, dreamlike quality and campy tone of this fairy tale fantasy will appeal to some, but not to most.

Pulp fantasy nonsense.

The film Charlie Chaplin most wanted to be remembered for doesn’t disappoint.

A fun but derivative-feeling Christmas movie whose one big differentiating idea is a total dud.

As a movie, it’s pretty fun. Compared to its franchise peers, it’s practically a work of art.

Physical comedy aplenty compensates for this silent era film’s weaker story, goofy effects, and general lack of polish relative to modern filmmaking.

Forty years and nine movies worth of built up expectations ends in a hot mess.

A respectable entry into the pantheon of Spider Man movies only hindered by its required nods to Marvel’s larger cinematic universe.

Both brilliant and terrible in equal measure, but more marred by its failings than elevated by its successes.

Rob Roy is a chore that feels every minute of its two hour and twenty minute length.
