Highly Suspect Reviews

THE SHROUDS MOVIE REVIEW David Cronenberg does not make normal movies. This is a given. But the question always is going into one, what KIND of abnormal is this gonna be? With The Shrouds, Cronenberg directs one of his most personal films, perhaps a conduit for his grief after the death of his wife. Vincent […]

THE LEGEND OF OCHI MOVIE REVIEW While A24’s latest release The Legend of Ochi may be a film directed at children, the review Chris, Wright, and Marco did for it is decidedly not (despite Marco’s best efforts to keep it on track). While discussing this little injured cryptid creature the film centers around, it was […]

SINNERS MOVIE REVIEW Up until now, Ryan Coogler has written and directed several successful films based on either a true story, or pre-existing IP, but Sinners marks his first time crafting a completely original work on his own terms. Michael B. Jordan, in a dual role, plays Smoke and Stack, identical twin brothers from the […]

DROP MOVIE REVIEW Remember when everything was “Die Hard on a _____”? No? Ok, you may have been too young for that but trust me, it was incessant. With the streaming success of Carry-On when seeing what the plot of Drop was, I couldn’t help but think “Carry-On but in a restaurant”. Violet (Meghann Fahy) […]

THE AMATEUR MOVIE REVIEW Imagine yourself as CIA cryptographer Charlie Heller. You look like Rami Malek, you’re decidedly a huge dork, and somehow you land Sarah (the stunning Rachel Brosnahan) as a wife. If she was on a trip to London and terrorists killed her, and then your bosses at the #1 spy agency in […]

WARFARE MOVIE REVIEW While working on his previous film Civil War, Alex Garland got to be friends with the military advisor on it, Ray Mendoza. They decided to write a script together based on an experience Ray had gone through in his experiences in the Iraq War. Initially Garland was going to be sole director […]

THE BALLAD OF WALLACE ISLAND MOVIE REVIEW Imagine you had more money than you knew what to do with that came upon you like unexpected manna from heaven. After you had traveled the world, bought your perfect house on your perfect island, what then? If you’re Charles (Tim Key) you make an offer to your […]

A WORKING MAN REVIEW Say what you will about this new found collaboration between David Ayer and Jason Statham, but they really know how to turn b-movie action plots into ridiculous and eccentric flicks. Jason Statham stars as Levon Cade who works as a foreman on a construction site run by mild mannered Michael Pena. […]

BLACK BAG MOVIE REVIEW Who knew after Steven Soderbergh’s retirement back in 2017 that he would ultimately make another fifteen feature films? We all did. Now with his 40th film, Black Bag is a return to sexy form for Soderbergh with an all star cast. Michael Fassbender and Cate Blanchett play husband & wife spies […]

NOVOCAINE MOVIE REVIEW Full disclosure: This was our first experience seeing a film in 4DX, which are, as Beau puts it, massage chairs that kick the crap out of you. Some of us loved the experience. Some of us had to gag a few times. But either way, it definitely affected our experience of watching […]
