I’ve got kind of a busy day and it’s a massive release week, so it’s time for another round of Six Word Reviews!
Being 17: Techine beats Dolan at own game. [Rad]
Billy Lynn’s Long Halftime Walk: Technical experiment produces some awkward results.
The Birdwatcher: Actors do their best. Movie doesn’t.
Bleed For This: Yo, Whiplash! Ever thought about boxing? [Rad]
The Carer: Brian Cox, a lion in winter. [Susan]
The Edge of Seventeen: John Hughes for 2016. Pretty decent.
Elle: Susan didn’t like it. I did.
Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them: Don’t need another four of these.
The History of Love: Not screened for press. Oh well.
London Road: Experimental musical makes for thrilling cinema.
Nocturnal Animals: If not for Michael Shannon, pointless.
Eleven movies is too many for one weekend, honestly.
