A uniquely romance mired amidst a relatively tightrope-walking depiction of domestic violence, It Ends With Us is, if anything, a star vehicle for the fantastic Blake Lively.

This hard-rocking, fist-pumping, cheese-filled actioner takes itself a little too seriously and a little too sciency to truly be great, but whenever Glen Powell is on screen, it feels like it has the energy to fight a twister with its bare knuckles.

A middling entry in an already middling franchise, more of the same isn’t always a bad thing. If you like Gru, and you like minions, you’ll like this repeat order.

The addition of new emotions is fun, but this sequel fails to capture the magic of the first. 

There’s not a rough edge in sight here, but despite its sheen, caricature character and polish, Bad Boys: Ride or Die still manages to capture enough of the magic to be a blast. 

Delia’s Gone is threadbare as a mystery, but excels when Budreau leans into the arthouse meditative nature of his work and Stephan James’ wonderful performance.

IF is saccharine and perhaps a bit mistargeted, but ultimately beautiful, fun and enjoyable.

The Apes franchise is resurrected with this new installment; albeit barely.
