Adults act like wild birds in this charming offbeat comedy. I was expecting a lot of things out of”The Incomer,” which is a Scottish comedy about siblings who live on an island […]
The Incomer
Ha-Chan, Shake Your Booty!
I’ve Had the Time of My Life with this high-spirited dancing romcom. We have a lot of “Dirty Dancing” spirits in “Ha-Chan, Shake Your Booty,” a cultural intersection romcom that has exuberant […]

The ocean chose wrong on this unnecessary remake. Important distinction: the 2016 Disney animated musical “Moana” was a delightful movie made with some “Little Mermaid” spirits by John Musker and Ron Clements. […]
