"Pryce realized Santi is a prodigy and that he may be able to make something of him, and perhaps something of himself again."

It's an accomplished debut, with compelling performances (especially from Ratterman) and a script that refuses to draw easy conclusions about any of its characters.

I showed it to my 17-year-old son and he was mildly horrified. Now that three decades have passed since its release, I think we can all agree that Larry Clark's Kids was not a good film.

Honey Don't! feels like a challenge, daring the audience to decide if it's just goofy, just horny, or just diverting enough to make up for how it runs out of gas long before the credits roll.

As a character says in this homage to a thrilling, occasionally bone-crushing sport, "What a bull."

The film is a professional piece of work but ultimately feels soulless, like it was generated by AI using familiar action-adventure tropes and beats.

I'm grateful to be here and this film has made me realize that I can turn pain into art.

"Ari Aster's smart but frustrating satire looks back at the pandemic with a misanthropic lens, recasting hopeful aspirations as infantile and naive while identifying Covid as the genesis of our current nightmare."

Tesfaye's film "Hurry Up Tomorrow" serves as a self-indulgent love letter to fans but ultimately showcases his tedious self-regard rather than impactful storytelling.
