Bad Times at the El Royale

Rather than a Tarantino copycat… this pulpy crime drama from director Drew Goddard (The Cabin in the Woods) feels fresh and invigorating as it intricately weaves together tales of a half-dozen strangers who converge on a stormy night in Lake Tahoe.

Venom

It’s a foregone conclusion that a character drawn as ludicrously proportioned as the pin-headed Venom inspires a film adaptation that abandons all semblance of drama and veers a hard left into slapstick.
