Grade: C Verdict: Bubbling with empathy and richness, August Wilson’s play maintains its humanity despite iffy filmmaking choices. As far as I can tell, “Fences” is a great play. August Wilson has written a moving, […]
Grade: B- Verdict: “Jackie” is worth a watch for Natalie Portman’s stellar performance (and as preparation for awards season), but suffers from a confused structure that detracts from all the feels. I […]

Grade: D Recommendation: Don’t do it to yourself. Verdict: “Inferno” is confused, obvious, and boring. It also hates on disillusioned young people. Lame piece of work. Ron Howard’s back in the “Da Vinci Code” […]
