Got a bad rap due to Nate Parker's public problems, too bad because it's pretty good.

Like Deepwater Horizon, I thought this would be super manipulative, but turned out to be thoughtful and good.

A thumping pop/rock soundtrack propels writer/director Edgar Wright's stylish blend of action and comedy. Baby (Ansel Elgort) is a skilled professional getaway driver who uses music to drown out the ringing in his ears caused by a car accident when he was a kid. After he falls for a beautiful waitress (Lily James), Baby wants to give up his dangerous vocation, a decision that does not sit well with the crime boss (Kevin Spacey) he works for. Jon Hamm, Jamie Foxx, Jon Bernthal also star. 113 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English.

With the world overtaken by a horrific plague, Paul (Joel Edgerton) has done his best to make his backwoods home a sealed-off safe haven for wife Sarah (Carmen Ejogo) and teenaged son Travis (Kelvin Harrison, Jr.). When their isolation is broken by the arrival of foraging couple Will (Christopher Abbott) and Kim (Riley Keough) and their little son, they offer the younger family shelter... but the inevitable rise of tension and paranoia in the closed quarters might doom them all, in writer/director Trey Edward Shult's understated chiller. 91 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English.

Solid addition to horror genre
on December 10, 2017
Posted by: TheCrimsonKing42
from North Canton, OH, USA
Verified Purchase:Yes
It Comes at Night follows a recent trend of some horror movies that have been overpraised critically for merely being a solid horror movie. I understand the drive, any critic that has to watch most of the mainstream horror releases must be so pleasantly relieved when they get a solid one that it may feel like a masterpiece or a redefinition of what horror movies are supposed to be - even when it isn't. It Comes at Night is supremely confident in it's storytelling and its tricks. It strips its story bare down to the essential elements of the genre, if not reinventing then rearranging its elements into a more different than usual concoction of suspense.

Unfortunately didn't live up to its acclaim
on December 10, 2017
Posted by: TheCrimsonKing42
from North Canton, OH, USA
Verified Purchase:Yes
I was really excited to watch Moonlight, as I had seen it at the top of end year lists of several movie critics I follow closely. Unfortunately, I was underwhelmed, as I found the story and characters to be nothing very new or intriguing. I think the main problem comes from the general introverted nature of the main character. The low-key, under the surface abuse and anger Chiron has is totally understandable, but cinematically just wasn't that interesting. It doesn't help that the most interesting relationships (and acting presences) in the film disappears less than a third of the way into the movie, and of course I'm talking about the relationship between Mahershala Ali and Janelle Monáe with young Chiron. The former two unfortunately just disappear, and their presence was sorely missed. Unfortunately there wasn't much to replace it; I thought the crack-head Mom role has been done to death already (even specifically what the film does with it), and the relationship between Chiron and Kevin also never really interested me that much (perhaps because I just never "got" the character of Kevin - I just don't see enough of where he's coming from as a character). I understand that the movie is also celebrated for having a gay, black male main character, but the story itself wasn't that compelling to me. I guess I was also over-hyped from all of the acclaim Moonlight is getting - from being a lot of people's #1 picks for 2016 I was expecting a beautifully filmed (looks fine, but doesn't stand out) movie, with an incredible story (too low key and not that compelling for me), with great characters (there's depth to them, certainly Chiron, just again it's too low key, and leave parts of the film kind of boring), but it just left me feeling like I've seem enough of this before, and the movie doesn't do any of it exceptionally.
