Individual Commentary:
Wesley Lovell (WL): As much as I like Jake Gyllenhaal, even he can’t make me interested in a Michael Bay movie. Peter J. Patrick (PP): Michael Bay’s remake of a 2005 Swedish actioner doesn’t grab me. Thomas LaTourette (TL): A good escapist film can be fun, but this looks like a typical Michael Bay film, just way too over the top to be believable or that much fun.

Wesley Lovell (WL): Didn’t have any interest in seeing the first film, so the second is right out. Peter J. Patrick (PP): For fans of the original which I haven’t seen. Thomas LaTourette (TL): I have not seen the original and the trailer makes no case for seeing this one.

Individual Commentary:
Wesley Lovell (WL): I like Celine Dion well enough, but that’s not a reason to see the film. However, the dead-on impersonation might be interesting enough. Peter J. Patrick (PP): French-Canadian biography of a fictionalized Celine Dion looks awful. Thomas LaTourette (TL): It looks like it might be fun in its fictitious take on Celine Dion.

Individual Commentary:
Wesley Lovell (WL): With a cast that’s equally impressive and unimpressive, this doesn’t seem that appealing. Peter J. Patrick (PP): Well-cast thriller should be entertaining if nothing else. Thomas LaTourette (TL): The thriller boasts a strong cast, but it feels like the love story may get in the way.

Wesley Lovell (WL): The trailer was terrible and that’s enough to make this a no-go. Peter J. Patrick (PP): Quirky comedy featuring Dustin Hoffman and Candice Bergen can’t be all bad. Thomas LaTourette (TL): Mayim Bialik makes her debut as a writer and director and has a good cast to work with, but unfortunately it looks like any other family drama.

Wesley Lovell (WL): It could be an ok film, but the trailer wasn’t as interesting as it needs to be. Peter J. Patrick (PP): Noisy coming-of-age drama might have its moments, but they aren’t in the trailer. Thomas LaTourette (TL): A typical teenage angst film filled with characters that do not seem terribly likable.
Can Ambulance do what Morbius could not? It’s possible, though Sonic the Hedgehog 2 could prove to be a capable competitor as well.
