Movie (and TV) Review Digest: Black Widow, The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, A Quiet Place Part II, Space Jam: A New Legacy, Luca, Cruella
A few short reviews for things I might have missed.
Unlike 2020, there’s a lot of new content coming out right now. And frankly, it’s been hard to keep up with writing reviews for each and every one of them. Some of them I had thoughts on, but not enough to write a full story. Others simply got away from me and no longer seemed relevant. So here they are, in a heap, all at once.
Dig in. (SPOILERS ahead)
Black Widow
While 2020 was pretty barren for the Marvel Cinematic Universe, 2021 has been a mad rush of Marvel hit after Marvel hit. From Wandavision and The Falcon and the Winter Soldier to Loki, it feels like we’ve hardly been without Marvel for more than a few minutes. But Black Widow was the return to the cinemas for the Cinematic Universe, and what a return it was.
Granted, Black Widow isn’t my favorite Marvel flick. If I had to rank it on an ever-changing list, it would probably hit somewhere around…
