December 7: Hitched (2001)

I would never cheat on Sheryl Lee, but that’s just me, I guess. While the leads turn in good performances and the humor is mildly amusing, Strick’s writing and direction is undercooked and poorly handles explorations of misogyny.

November 30 (bonus): Eloise at Christmastime (2003)

They should’ve made ten more movies with this little shit. While not as mature and well-rounded as the first film, Eloise’s adventures continue to entertain and Creel steals the show with charm and class-A singing.

November 30: Eloise at the Plaza (2003)

Absolutely adorable. With a simple yet well-structured screenplay, Broughton’s whimsical score and Vassilieva’s kinetic energy, this family classic works with its TV budget incredibly well.

November 18 (bonus): The Little Things (2021)

Despite Newman’s excellent score and the actors turning in great performances, Hancock’s neo-noir is too dependent on a blatant Fincher pastiche, its writing and aesthetic too derivative to ever truly stand out.

November 18: Training Day (2001)

Washington is practically unrecognizable as he delivers a tour de force performance in Fuqua’s horrifying, searing portrait of L.A. police, with Ayer’s screenplay brilliantly entwining character study with blockbuster thrills.
