While Riggen's intentions are honest, "The 33" misses on a few angles. While the final moments of the film are some of the most tense and riveting, it might not be the fulfilling experience of the recent event as some might hope.
"Sinister 2" is not the worst horror movie in the world. There are certainly more tasteless films out there, but this one seems like a missed opportunity to build off of a decent first installment.
"Spare Parts'" final half hour, arguably its most interesting, is also its most predictable and not until the final epilogue, which details these characters' outcomes, does the viewer actually feel invested in the four teenagers. There is no doubt that the intentions (aside from the horrific McDonald's commercial) are sincere in highlighting the achievement of Latinos. But unfortunately this film offers nothing new that has not been seen before. Clocking in at almost two hours, the movie almost feels like it is being forced down the viewer's throats as a way to make people feel sorry for Latinos rather than celebrate their greatness. Any attempts at cultural authenticity falter because the film relies so heavily on the tired stereotypes to represent its characters. There was certainly a great story here, but the execution is as poor as it gets making "Spare Parts" live up to its title as another throwaway movie.
"Two Days, One Night" is a tremendously polished film from two cinematic geniuses. It packs quite an emotional punch in its final twist and features a distilled narrative that anyone can relate to on some level. Cotillard's performance is arguably her most refined and potent to date.
