Our Score - 1.08/10 (F)Rotten Tomatoes - 13%IMDb - 3.2/10Chosen By: Nate DudleyThe only thing harder than watching a movie with almost no redeeming qualities, like Don't Speak (2020), is talking about it for an hour. Trust us and skip this movie!

Our Score - 7.88/10 (B)Rotten Tomatoes - 93%IMDb - 7.8/10Chosen By: Nate DudleyHidden Figures (2016) tells an important story through an amazing cast. The PG rating might make the story feel a bit simplified to some, but it still is impactful and inspiring.

'The Conspirator' Falls Flat

Our Score - 5.67/10 (C-)Rotten Tomatoes - 56%IMDb - 6.9/10Chosen By: Aaron CronicanDespite the efforts of the loaded cast, The Conspirator (2010) feels too much like a play, and it lacks the impact expected from a story like this.

'Hotel Mumbai' Is Intense, But It Feels Misguided

Our Score - 4.33/10 (D-)Rotten Tomatoes - 76%IMDB - 7.6/10Chosen By: Shane CronicanIn Hotel Mumbai (2018), Dev Patel shines, as he always does, but his great performance can't save this movie from feeling like it is exploiting the true life horrors for entertainment. As Matt puts it, this one feels "icky".
