Biggest Disappointments:
Slice (a24, wanted it to be good)
Game Over Man (NetFlix movie from the Workaholics guys)
The Cloverfield Paradox (Cloverfield Lane was great, hyped-up Superbowl drop)
A Wrinkle in Time (so much hype)
Kin (liked it a lot but it bombed, so no more coming probably)
Mary Poppins Returns (perfectly fine, but not magical to me)
Super Troopers 2 (do comedy sequels that take so long ever work?)
Under the Silver Lake (dir of It Follows) & Hold the Dark (dir of Blue Ruin)
