Martin Short
Steve Martin & Martin Short—
Only Murders in the Building
—5/25/2022
[Martin:] I've read that monkeypox is sexually transmitted, so neither Marty nor I could possibly catch it." [Short:] "Unless you can catch it through batteries."
Treasure Planet (2002)
The awkward trappings of this Disney adventure mechanize and blunt the tale's humanity. It pops and squeaks and rumbles, but
Treasure Planet
lacks the strength to transport audiences.
Father of the Bride/Father of the Bride, Part II (1991)
The strengths of these films are not so much laughs as sincerity and heart.
Frankenweenie (2012)
Flipping the cautionary themes of Mary Shelley’s original source material,
Frankenweenie
plays out as a primarily pro-science parable...goes out of its way to encourage free-thinking square pegs to avoid gaping round holes.
Inherent Vice (2015)
The plot is a sideshow to
Inherent Vice
's luxuriant atmosphere, cracked sense of humor, and idiosyncratic characterization.
Mack & Rita (2022)
Painfully unfunny and devoid of insight, the magical realism is rushed and sloppy, and the emotional logic never coheres.
