The Film Yap reviews Downhill, The Photograph and more
Now that the Oscars are over, we’re settling in to what’s playing at theaters this weekend. The Film Yap’s Christopher Lloyd runs down the list:
Downhill — Julia Louis Dreyfuss and Will Ferrell star in this American comedy remake of a Swedish film about a couple whose marriage founders after he abandons their family during an avalanche.
The Photograph — Lakeith Stanfield and Issa Rae star in this Valentine’s Day romance about a new couple with time-slip issues.
Sonic the Hedgehog — The speedy video game mammal gets the CGI movie treatment, with Jim Carrey as the sneering villain and James Marsden as the human sidekick.
Fantasy Island — Horror studio Blumhouse tackles the smarmy ‘70s TV show in this humorous version of the island where your dreams, and maybe a few nightmares, come true.
The Last Thing He Wanted — Ben Affleck and Anne Hathaway star in this obviously-dumped drama about a journalist who gets wrapped up in the intrigue of the story she’s chasing.
Video: Ford v Ferrari — Terrific story of men and machines as American Davids take on the Italian Goliaths of Euro racing. Buy It.
