While Aubrey Plaza sometimes seems out of place, especially when paired with Jason Statham, Hugh Grant immensely compensates.
“Cocaine Bear” meets the expectations of madness you’d expect it to have.
“Disquiet” gives “Angels of Death” vibes, as we watch a man try to escape a hospital with monsters who all want to kill him and some who may be friends or foes.
“Somebody I Used To Know” may have a wonderful “Community” reunion and unexpected friendship worth investing in, but it doesn’t offer much beyond that.
“Knock At The Cabin” is another M. Night Shyamalan film where the trailer may have sold you, but the movie lacks payoff.
“Fear” might be creepy enough to make you uncomfortable, but something about the writing and performances may make you cringe.
“Infinity Pool” is a mesmerizing and seductive nightmare in which Mia Goth plays hostess.
“When You Finish Saving The World” may have a lovely, complicated mother/son relationship front and center, but it isn’t so strong it compensates for all that is avoided.
In the toned-down “Alice, Darling,” the depiction of emotional abuse is on display and given a touch that surprisingly isn’t leaning towards Oscar bait.
The overall goal of Wherever I Look is to fill in that space between the average fan and critic and advise you on what’s worth experiencing.
