Let's revisit a movie I LOVED in 2020 and see if they can recapture the same vibe of exhausted eternal warriors in 2025.

My oh my, where to start with Mickey 17? How about the positives?

Robert Pattinson was fantastic. He absolutely was the heart of the movie and gave it his all, being different copies of himself. If the whole movie focused on him, it would have been a fascinating tale of cloning and life. But...

Excited to review Mickey 17 today.

Robert Pattinson can do no wrong.

Daredevil: Born Again is just what Marvel needs right now. The writing picks up exactly where Netflix left off, delivering thrilling court drama, debates about human nature, battles with personal demons, and hardcore violence.

This is where Marvel needs to be, and I'm thrilled to see it happen.

Captain America: Brave New World is. . . serviceable. It has some fun moments. When Red Hulk finally shows up, we get the payoff. It's an entertaining showdown.

Sam's first solo movie is a fine intro to him as Cap. Ford doesn't dial it in at all. Carl Lumbly steals the show in all his scenes.

Love Me is an interesting concept stretched too thin. It drags hard in the middle despite Yeun and Stewart giving it their all. They've got good chemistry, but this clearly should have been a short film.

There are some chuckles at the start and some heart at the end, but it's not enough. #FilmSky

I love to see it. The Wild Robot was AMAZING.

It deserves this win at @rottentomatoes.com. And it deserves the Best Animated Feature Oscar as well.

Keep going, Roz! #filmsky #animation

The film introduces a cool character named Matangi, sends Moana to lift her curse, and then completely forgets about her.

Talk about a wasted element. This important character was completely forgotten by the movie. The ending didn't address her 1,000-year-old curse at all.

#Moana2 is a mess, y'all. The pacing makes absolutely no sense. The story is a wall of wet noodles the writers threw in hopes at least 2-3 things would stick.

It introduces and abandons plot threads without reason.

This sequel feels like it was brought into existence with blunt force. #FilmSky

The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim looks fantastic. The animation harkens back to the days of Ralph Bakshi's Lord of the Rings (1978).

The characters fall a bit flat, but audiences will still get lots of action.

It's a fun movie with some mixed results overall. #FilmSky #LOTR
