From most recent: Train to Busan - 2.5/5. Solid little Korean zombie blockbuster, sprinkled with (as opposed to Snowpiercer's dousing) some social commentary and melodrama. Good set pieces, but a bit too overstuffed. The Visit - 2/5. Not very scary but pretty drat funny at times. Not inoffensively bad unlike some of M. Night's work in the past decade (Airbender, The Happening, Lady in the Water). Pretty irresponsible messaging about mental illness though. Pitch Black - 3/5. Vin Diesel carrying what would otherwise be a mediocre sci-fy film through sheer force of will. 10 Cloverfield Lane - 2.5/5. John Goodman is loving fantastic. The film alternates between cozy and tense before ultimately losing me. Shin Godzilla - 4/5. Generally kicks rear end, but it felt like Anno was really held back at times (or held himself back). Particularly stupid subplot that just made my eyes roll. Dial M for Murder 4/5. Finely crafted. Hangs together brilliantly, but lacks that special something of Hitchcock's best works.
