‘Jungle Cruise’ Is Fun but Has Questionable Representation
'Jungle Cruise' is fun if you can ignore the racism of the ride it’s based on and the film’s bland, stereotypical characters.

A film by Portland, OR multimedia collective Body Academics, and supported in part by the PDX-based Regional Arts and Culture Council, EVIL BABYLON is a phantasmagorical, psychosexual science-fiction movie musical masterpiece: the story of a sexually-repressed evangelical race car driver who dies in a church-sanctioned deathmatch and the kink-positive party planet that leads him on a journey towards self acceptance. Made with all-original music, incredible animation, and starring a bevy of Portland drag all-stars, EVIL BABYLON is a riotous new spectacle that must be seen to be believed.

The film didn’t have to be as long as it is. It just dragged on and on with scenes that had no substance. Every so often we get an action scene, and even those isn’t that fun.
"His Girl Friday" set the bar for romcoms and gave us a feminist heroine before feminism was cool.
The Outer Senshi get characterization and some stellar moments in the second part of the Eternal movie duo.
Thunder Force brings much-needed diversity to the superhero genre. Unfortunately, it's also an uninteresting and unfunny mess.
