Dark Spaces (2009)

One thing’s for certain: Holmes has star power. We may not be able to see everything, but we’re certainly all watching. 

A lonely little Hawaiian girl and her mischievous blue alien friend form a bond that heals both of their hearts, as well as ours. This live action version adds emotional nuances—notably in the sisters’ dynamic—while preserving the charm of the original.

Magnolia focuses on how one’s childhood and trauma relate to their confidence and self.

Emily Henry’s adaptation reaches romance movie standards, but not romance reader standards.

Passing is a visually stunning portrayal of Larsen's story with an inclusive cast, and the performances of Thompson and Negga are sensational. 

Despite the film’s efforts to reframe its heroine with modern complexity, a certain emotional distance lingers.
