All things considered, 2024 has been an exceptional year when it comes to high-quality filmmaking. Both massive blockbuster franchises like Dune: Part Two and Inside Out 2 are doing just as well with critics as they are with audiences, and even smaller, artsy films like I Saw the TV Glow and Kinds of Kindness are seeing widespread acclaim.
While its concept proved to be exciting for fans, everything surrounding the execution and differences from the main series quickly turned many die-hard Descendants fans away from this spin-off. Each of the films in the main series was largely the vision of director Kenny Ortega and his lack of involvement with the spin-off results in a lack of style and inherent charm.
Release Date January 5, 2024 Director Bryce McGuire Cast Kerry Condon , Wyatt Russell , Nancy Lenehan , Ben Sinclair , Jodi Long Runtime 118 minutes Writers Rod Blackhurst , Bryce McGuire 8 'Borderlands' Letterboxd Average Rating: 1.7/5 Adapted from the successful videogame franchise, Borderlands attempted to tap into the same levels of chaotic, violent mischief that made the games such a smash hit but couldn't translate it to the big screen.
While on the surface, Mother of the Bride doesn't seem to do that much differently than other low-effort generic romantic comedies, its execution and premise quickly enter into a realm of discomfort. It doesn't take a genius to see the film heading towards this older couple getting back together, putting into question the central marriage, considering the couple getting married is about to become step-siblings.
A sequel to the acclaimed action thriller from 1996, Indian 2 is the type of cheap, obvious cash grab that is often seen in Hollywood filmmaking instead of the normally rich and exciting world of Indian cinema. On top of the obvious attempts to garner goodwill from past projects, Indian 2 was rife with controversy, from outdated politics to an accident causing multiple deaths on set.
Madame Web feels like the full culmination of every issue and downside plaguing modern would-be franchises in the wake of the success of the MCU, failing to scratch the surface of understanding what made it work so well. There are certainly attempts to tell an exciting chapter to flesh out Sony's Spider-Man universe, but the stilted performances, baffling editing decisions, and regurgitated references make it a comically bad misfire.
