Tomatometer-approved critic
Biography:

I'm a Seattle city girl trying to make it as a film critic and freelance entertainment journalist in the wilds of Washington State. When I'm not watching (and writing about) movies, I also read (constantly), eat out (mmmmm - mexican food), shop (you can never have enough shoes), hang out with friends, play softball & basketball, watch the SuperSonics avidly (even if they do, at the moment, stink) and have far too unhealthy a fascination with Kelly Clarkson.

Favorites:

I hate this question. There are far too many to list.

Location:

undertone (2025) 72% 1.5/4 EDIT “I will see films in 2025 that I will dislike far more than I do writer-director Ian Tuason’s undertone. I doubt I will see many that I will find nearly as disappointing.” – MovieFreak.com Mar 13, 2026 Full Review THE BRIDE! (2026) 57% 4/4 EDIT “Calling this invigorating cinematic caterwaul magnificent would be an injustice. It’s so much better than that.” – MovieFreak.com Mar 7, 2026 Full Review Hoppers (2026) 93% 3.5/4 EDIT “Pixar returns to the head of the animation class with Hoppers, a vibrant, imaginative, and, best of all, exceedingly funny flight of zany madness that is sure to send audiences out of the theater sporting a gigantic smile.” – MovieFreak.com Mar 7, 2026 Full Review Scream 7 (2026) 31% 1.5/4 EDIT “Maybe, after 30 years of success, it’s finally time to pull the plug and let Sidney Prescott be.” – MovieFreak.com Feb 27, 2026 Full Review Jimpa (2025) 53% 3/4 EDIT “I was moved. I can’t help but hope others will be as well.” – MovieFreak.com Feb 23, 2026 Full Review How to Make a Killing (2026) 43% 2/4 EDIT “If one wanted a case study on how far a charming ensemble can carry an otherwise mediocre motion picture, writer-director John Patton Ford’s How to Make a Killing would be a terrific place to start.” – MovieFreak.com Feb 23, 2026 Full Review Wuthering Heights (2011) 69% 4/4 EDIT “I loved it, and I have this sneaky suspicion my affinity for Arnold’s breathlessly austere adaptation will only grow as the years go by.” – MovieFreak.com Feb 16, 2026 Full Review Wuthering Heights (2026) 57% 2/4 EDIT “If there’s a textbook definition of the term "maximalist," this motion picture would be it.” – MovieFreak.com Feb 16, 2026 Full Review The Mortuary Assistant (2026) 38% 2/4 EDIT “Rebecca’s battle against the forces of evil isn’t so much all for naught as it is boringly routine. Holland deserves better. For that matter, so does the audience.” – MovieFreak.com Feb 16, 2026 Full Review Send Help (2026) 93% 3.5/4 EDIT “The moral to the story? Don’t disrespect, ridicule, or look down on the Linda Liddle’s of the world. They’ll only take so much and, when they finally decide to fight back, there will be justified hell to pay.” – MovieFreak.com Feb 16, 2026 Full Review Mercy (2026) 25% 1/4 EDIT “At least it’s funny. I do have to give Mercy that.” – MovieFreak.com Jan 23, 2026 Full Review 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple (2026) 92% 3.5/4 EDIT “Armageddon has rarely been this beautiful. Or this profound.” – MovieFreak.com Jan 16, 2026 Full Review A Private Life (2025) 81% 3.5/4 EDIT “Zlotowski’s frisky handling of the material is difficult to resist, as are many of the romantic and comedic interludes that are liberally sprinkled throughout the proceedings. A Private Life is a lot of fun to watch.” – MovieFreak.com Jan 16, 2026 Full Review Primate (2025) 78% 3/4 EDIT “My stomach twisted in a series of knots that remained there long after the film concluded.” – MovieFreak.com Jan 9, 2026 Full Review Avatar: Fire and Ash (2025) 66% 3/4 EDIT “As much as I did enjoy Avatar: Fire and Ash, I’m ready for Cameron to move on to telling new stories far removed from this one.” – MovieFreak.com Jan 1, 2026 Full Review The Housemaid (2025) 73% 3/4 EDIT “It’s a goofily inspired romp through sex, violence, gaslighting, female empowerment, and bloody revenge, its core events centered around two titanically exuberant performances from stars Amanda Seyfried and Sydney Sweeney that are difficult to resist.” – MovieFreak.com Jan 1, 2026 Full Review Silent Night, Deadly Night (2025) 77% 3/4 EDIT “Nelson deepens the character arcs for his two leads, increases the emotional complexity, and inserts a politically astute layer of pitch-black satirical social commentary that’s often as funny as it is prescient.” – MovieFreak.com Dec 13, 2025 Full Review Five Nights at Freddy's 2 (2025) 16% 3/4 EDIT “Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 offers up pretty much the same gateway horror delights that its predecessor did, and I don’t have any problem with that whatsoever.” – MovieFreak.com Dec 13, 2025 Full Review The Age of Adaline (2015) 55% 3/4 EDIT “Adaline’s story captivated me, heart and soul, her long journey to love’s doorstep a timeless sojourn I was glad to be a part of.” – MovieFreak.com Nov 26, 2025 Full Review Zootopia 2 (2025) 91% 3.5/4 EDIT “The whole thing is a madcap jolt of comedic adrenaline that the whole family will almost certainly love. I know I sure did.” – MovieFreak.com Nov 26, 2025 Full Review Wicked: For Good (2025) 66% 1.5/4 EDIT “Wicked: For Good has precious little in the way of any actual magic. One might even go so far as to call it a bona fide dud.” – MovieFreak.com Nov 21, 2025 Full Review Peter Hujar's Day (2025) 91% 4/4 EDIT “Sachs delivers a picturesque chronicle of everyday life that’s breathtaking in its verisimilitude.” – MovieFreak.com Nov 21, 2025 Full Review The Running Man (2025) 62% 1.5/4 EDIT “I say change the channel and go watch something else.” – MovieFreak.com Nov 21, 2025 Full Review Predator: Badlands (2025) 86% 3.5/4 EDIT “Trachtenberg tips his hat to all of the past stories but refuses to be beholden to any of them.” – MovieFreak.com Nov 11, 2025 Full Review Bugonia (2025) 87% 2.5/4 EDIT “I found Bugonia to be an unrelentingly miserable journey into pessimistic darkness, its viscerally sardonic malice more than I could bear.” – MovieFreak.com Nov 2, 2025 Full Review
