With Unpacking, MacIssac taps into the inner life of a conflicted and emotionally paralyzed gay man and explores the truths and lies we all tell ourselves just to survive and keep moving, keep loving and keep unpacking.
Let’s get one thing out of the way right now: Alita: Battle Angel is one of the most dizzying and exhilarating films in a while and certainly the most visually impressive of Rodriguez’ career.
The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part (very clever) begins five years after the events of the first film, which ended on a cliffhanger that saw aliens from the planet Duplo invade the town of Bricksburg. Since then, things have gone from awesome to apocalypse, as the invasion has laid waste to the town and hardened the hearts of the citizens.
If deeds do indeed speak louder than words, then Glass is little more than a quiet stage whisper. It’s a superhero film that swaps set pieces for monologues and a trilogy finale that actually has less plot and story than its previous two films combined.
Set 25 years after the original, Returns sees Mary Poppins (Emily Blunt)…well, returning…to once again guide the now-adult Banks children Michael (Ben Whishaw) and Jane (Emily Mortimer).
The film opens with the half-human, half-Atlantean Arthur Curry (Jason Momoa) rescuing the crew of a Russian submarine from a raid by pirates. Dubbed “The Aquman” by news reports and social media, Arthur spends his time being a semi-reluctant, semi-responsible hero (he’s not exactly a people person).
