Booksmart (2019)

Movie high schools never resemble anything like the high school I attended. It's almost as if they are trying to replicate the pretend high schools of cinema past.

Despite a completely unrealistic portrayal of teen education, the writing is quick, crude, and smart, so I still laughed.

Rating: C+

Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015)

Like most other Star Wars films, it was packed with coincidence, improbability, and lasers. Cheap thrills over content. The new droid was cute. Light speed was attained. One Storm Trooper was redeemed. The rest got massacred. Sabers were crossed.

Rating: C
