Moderately charming, it just suffers deeply from a "boy, life sure is hard when you're a straight white male" mentality.

Oz the Great and Powerful 2013
Wow, I remembered this thing as a mess, and that was being charitable. Just kind of everything wrong with big studio movies from 2013. James Franco is ridiculously bad in this, even taking into consideration that he probably spends a majority of the run-time standing in an empty green room talking to air.

War for the Planet of the Apes 2017
A damn fine film. Beautifully crafted on every level. It's a movie that gets at the core of not just the human spirit, but the sentient spirit, while examining the devastation that loss can bring. This series got better with each film, and it's been capped off with this terrific final statement.

After Hours 1985
Surreal and Fun. A madcap ride through the weird streets of New York after the sun goes down. I really like Scorsese doing comedy, and this one felt a little like him trying to do David Lynch, even though it came out before Blue Velvet, so who knows, maybe Lynch was doing Scorsese.
