This charming and distinctly midwestern tale of plucky resourcefulness is a delight because of its leads (and a memorable supporting turn from Rainn Wilson), enough so that overcomes a predictable David-and-Goliath plot and life lessons that are wrapped up just a little too neatly.
Jerry & Marge Go Large : David Frankel’s 2022 feature doesn’t try to do too much, it simply puts Bryan Cranston and Annette Benning, two of the best actors of their generation, in as many scenes together as humanly possible. The big twist is underwhelming, but Scream VI is so fun that it hardly matters. But Scream VI soars thanks to a confident ensemble led by Melissa Barrera and Jenna Ortega, just the right amount of meta humor from Jasmin Savoy Brown, and several killer Big Apple setpieces, including a genuinely nerve-wracking sequence on a subway train. Scream VI : Transplanting the Scream franchise from Woodsboro to the Big Apple was a risky change to the status quo of a consistently successful horror franchise, particularly after the messiness of the Los Angeles-set Scream 3.
