The Exorcism, Something in the Water, The Bikeriders: Movie Reviews

Russell Crowe's New Horror: The Exorcism

Russell Crowe stars in this horror film that starts strong but quickly devolves into a head-spinning mess of nonsense. The story follows a lead actor auditioning for a cursed role in a film about exorcisms, with jumpy moments and a dark atmosphere. However, the second half takes a bizarre turn, leaving the audience with more questions than answers.

Something in the Water: Sharks, Friendship, and Drama

This lost-at-sea tale combines elements of Bridesmaids and Open Water, following a lesbian couple forced to confront their past at a friend's wedding. As they embark on a boat trip to a remote island, disaster strikes in the form of a shark attack. With a mix of laugh-out-loud moments and suspense, director Hayley Easton Street delivers a unique take on the shark genre.

The Bikeriders: A Passion Project with a Stellar Cast

Directed by Jeff Nichols, The Bikeriders is a sumptuously crafted film inspired by a Sixties biker group. With a stellar cast including Austin Butler and Jodie Comer, the movie delves into the gang's dynamics and conflicts. While the performances are captivating, the film falls short in exploring the characters' motivations and desires, leaving the audience wanting more.
