Turtle Tuesday (Comic book reviews): Clarrain wins in quantity, but Dan Slott matches him in quality in Archie’s final batch of issues.
Sleuthing Sunday (Movie review): Alfred Molina is no David Suchet, and the present-day setting is not a benefit, but Christie’s brilliant plot remains in place to hook newcomers.
Frightening Friday (Movie review): Though it has good actors, this attempt at “less is more” horror needed something more.
Movie review: Excellent and robust special effects serve an intimate family drama as the helmer of “It Follows” continues his win streak.
Throwback Thursday (Movie review): Though some wonder has been sapped from aliens through the years, Spielberg’s craftsmanship alone makes the film worth watching.
Turtle Tuesday (Comic book reviews): Clarrain takes the story to the past and future, and delivers one of the series’ most solid issues.
Sleuthing Sunday (Movie reviews): In both screen adaptations of the 1954 play, Christie’s plot construction is the highlight.
Superhero Saturday (TV review): Atwell and the period reconstruction are good, but the theme is blunt and the storytelling clunky.
Throwback Thursday (TV review): The two installments directed by Spielberg tap into his sensitivities for domestic drama and military camaraderie.
