When Lowen is initially offered the financially lucrative ghostwriting job, she's asked if she has read any of Verity Crawford's books. 'I never read a book I could buy at the airport,' she replies, which is how I feel about this movie. #Verity #DakotaJohnson www.reelingreviews.com/reviews/veri...

If the survivors of California's deadly Camp Fire would think a satire showing the inept complicity of Pacific Gas and Electric leading up to it was funny, this would be the movie for them. An elaborate misfire... #Digger #TomCruise #AlejandroGIñárritu www.reelingreviews.com/reviews/digg...

Writer/director #DaveBoyle raises plenty of gooseflesh with practical effects using mirrors, body doubles and lighting techniques combined with ancient folklore, creepy make-up, exaggerated sound and inventive props. #NeverAfterDark #MoekaHoshi www.reelingreviews.com/reviews/never-after-dark/

This fem Filipino fantasy features some pretty wild animation, as if the plasticine personalities of Pixar were dipped in anime, then handed over to Tex Avery for exaggerated reactions which change their very features... #ForgottenIsland www.reelingreviews.com/reviews/forg...
