Ill-conceived and poorly executed, “Lucy in the Sky” wastes its phenomenal cast thanks to its morass of overwrought visuals and contradictory messaging.
Visually ambitious but thematically heavy-handed, “Interstellar” aims for a soaring, suspenseful film experience, but ends up collapsing under its own weight.
“Her” is an unflinchingly, unapologetically complex and challenging film, and it’s an acting tour de force for Joaquin Phoenix, who carries this film from start to finish with a performance that’s charming, sad, creepy, and endearing all at once.
