Rating	Title \| Year	Author	Quote
	The Gray Man (2022)	Katie Smith-Wong	The Gray Man benefits from its talented ensemble cast, the Russos’ creative flair, and strong action work–it is just unfortunate that its frenetic pacing doesn’t complement the monotone premise, so it fails to revolutionize the spy thriller genre. Posted Jul 22, 2022 Edit critic review
3/5	Thor: Love and Thunder (2022)	Kelechi Ehenulo	Thor: Love and Thunder falls short of expectations. It’s a wild, entertaining mixed bag of a ride that gets lost in the punchline. Taika’s cosmic epic brings plenty of love, but lacks patience with its story to feel the depth of its impact. Posted Jul 11, 2022 Edit critic review
	Elvis (2022)	Katie Smith-Wong	Any tension from Presley’s real-life struggles is forsaken for flashes of pizzazz but the career-defining turn of its young lead actor is a highlight–it will be hard for anybody this year to top Austin Butler. Posted Jun 27, 2022 Edit critic review
	The Batman (2022)	Katie Smith-Wong	Thanks to Pattinson and Danos compelling performances, as well as Reevess ambitious direction, The Batman is an enthralling thriller and a welcome return for the Caped Crusader. Posted Apr 19, 2022 Edit critic review
	The Northman (2022)	Katie Smith-Wong	Eggers doesnt compromise on the brutality and scale of his latest feature, creating a visually compelling and absorbing thriller. Combined with Skarsgårds powerful performance, The Northman cements a welcome return to the cinematic historical epic. Posted Apr 19, 2022 Edit critic review
