[ This week on The CineSnob Podcast, Cody and Jerrod review Fox’s X-Men swan song DARK PHOENIX and the Netflix sci-fi thriller I AM MOTHER.
“Entirely perfunctory, with confusing fight choreography…and completely unearned sentimentality.”
“Passable sci-fi fare. Katherine Waterston is wonderful and Sigourney Weaver-esque.”
“Bathed in exquisitely aching restraint and soul-rending inner turmoil, its potboiler escapist theater.”
“Fox had righted the franchise, so let’s hope this crummy mutation doesn’t affect the series again.”
“It might be Michael Fassbender’s symphony, but Aaron Sorkin’s the maestro of the entire suite.”

“Occasionally compelling. Interest is mined from interaction between Smit-McPhee and Fassbender.”
“Has a certain sweet streak running through its veins and is an interesting look at mental illness.”
“An adventure that ranks among the series’ strongest. Jackman’s performance is badass.”
“Significant subject matter… extremely powerful and essential viewing for everyone.”
“A complicated mess…’The Counselor’ just might be the most surprising failure of the year.”
