Mary Elizabeth Winstead
Sky High (2005)
Dissatisfying to an adult audience accustomed to more sophisticated parody....will resonate with young viewers on their way to high school.
Final Destination 3 (2006)
Morgan and Wong's snarky iterations on their initial premise don't show much development...a fair diversion but, make no mistake, a waste of time.
Live Free or Die Hard (2007)
Disappointingly generic...slips into last place in the series.
A.C.O.D. (2013)
Hums along nicely as it diagnoses what Dr. Judith calls 'the least-parented, least-nurtured generation—ever.' It's funny without being broad, thanks to a fine ensemble...
10 Cloverfield Lane (2016)
Essentially the picture is one tease after another, misdirecting as fast as it can and amounting to the 'Emperor’s New Clothes' vacuousness of mid-period M. Night Shyamalan.
Birds of Prey and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn (2020)
Practically dares its audience to make the mistake of taking it seriously, and yet it’s a bizarrely uplifting story of credibly tough women...survivors all, supporting each other to vanquish a sneering, preening abuser whose time’s up.
