Trainwreck
Cody Villafana
“Entertaining, but forgettable. Feels like a little bit of a letdown given Judd Apatow’s pedigree.”

“Director Kapadia’s style is nothing short of brilliant as he is able to weave together an engaging narrative.”
“Early moments of flourish…but the narrative takes it down different paths that stretch it way too thin.”
“Balances action and comedy to varying degrees. Mines some decent comedy out of familiar tropes.”
“Occasionally compelling. Interest is mined from interaction between Smit-McPhee and Fassbender.”
“A pure, unadulterated blast. The first legitimately great film of the summer movie season.”
“Says nothing of importance…a giant waste of time for its two talented leads.”
“Smart and ambitious…allowing audiences to flex their mental muscles to stay engaged.”
“Nearly every second, plotline or joke is way too on the nose to register as funny, biting, or profound.”
“A dialogue-driven romantic drama with plenty of substance and kissed with bits of horror.”
“Relies far too heavily on catching the viewer off guard by way of shock value.”
“Sleek…but comes off as too silly to be considered entertaining.”
