‘Malcolm & Marie’ Review: A Promising Premise With Disappointing Results
Sam Levinson's latest film can't keep up with the excellence of its performances.

If Aizawa refuses, he will lose his job and be unable to help his sick father. Aizawa follows the orders and succeeds in stealing the data, but the promotion is brushed aside and he is threatened instead. Enraged, Aizawa loses control, knocks Miyata unconscious, and forces him to take the new drug. The next morning, Miyata’s body has transformed into that of a woman…
Sam Levinson's latest film can't keep up with the excellence of its performances.
The plot could’ve really been interesting if the elements of lycanthropy was integrated with perhaps the struggle of identity of being LGBTQ+. It's an experience for so many that as they’re starting to realizing their true selves, they feel like a monster, especially if they come from unsupportive homes or communities. Instead, the horror and transformation elements seem thrown in without contemplation of how this could deepen the narrative.
From being unfairly outed, to going after the life you want for yourself, these songs from 'Frozen' perfectly capture the journey out of the closet.
The characters aren’t likable, the story is predictable and the humor is either disgusting, obnoxious, or uncomfortable. The Wrong Missy is a mess of a film and it’s not really worth your time.
'Reservation Dogs' is stacked with an array of Native American performers and crew telling their own story.
