White Sands - It's got a killer cast and the vibes are pretty decent, but this just a flat, uneventful, not at all tense crime caper.
Bad Boys: Ride or Die - It's definitely fun, but it leans to much into the the silly Marcus stuff when it should have done more with the themes of redemption and family / legacy. It's got a cool visual style, and the action is kinetic, even if the choreography is kinda meh.
Kung Fu Killer - The concept is strong and the action sequences are all very good, but the script is dumb as hell and it looks incredibly cheap.
Poseidon - Terrible script with absolutely no real characters, just meat to feed the grinder. It is however, mean as hell for a PG-13 movie, has some killer setpieces, and is a breezy 90ish minutes.
Twisters - Sorry, I just cannot jive how catastrophically stupid this script is with how over melodramatic and deadly seriously it takes everything. Sure, Glen is great and the setpieces are fine, but I spent more time laughing at it than with it.
