As an intense southern wind rattles Split, the lives of tenants in a four-story building collide in a darkly comedic chain of misunderstandings, schemes, and chaos where even heroes remain villains in the eyes of their neighbors.
A brief look at two Barry Jenkins films that have established him as one of the greatest filmmakers of our time.
In this short film, writer/director Nikita Hattangady focuses on Jai, a starving artist rooted in the latter category. Though unhoused, he works hard.
As this critic continues to look back at some of this Summer's films I have taken in, I would be remiss if I didn't mention one of the most overall unsettling trends in Hollywood over the last several years.....sequels, reboots, and remakes. Look, I am all for seeing more than one film for certain originals that made a splash, ie: "Jurassic Park", "Pirates of the Caribbean", "Transformers", etc.
Eventually, “Hobbs and Shaw” introduces us to a Samoan community. Clearly, Johnson’s Samoan roots are on display. Quite frankly, I found this section of the film very intriguing. The “Fast and Furious” franchise has a solid track record in the diversity department
Considering the runtime, I expected each scene to hit harder as opposed to a series of montages and vignettes.
