Genius (2016)



A chronicle of Max Perkins's time as the book editor at Scribner and his relationship with Thomas Wolfe.

Muddled attempt of recreating a historical literary episode has some good period detail, but most figures are portrayed unsympathetically (especially Jude Law's Thomas Wolfe) and hardly manages to give an impression what the fuss is all about.

Pacific Rim: Uprising (2018)




Jake Pentecost, son of Stacker Pentecost, reunites with Mako Mori to lead a new generation of Jaeger pilots, including rival Lambert and 15-year-old hacker Amara, against a new Kaiju threat.

OK sequel doesn't have really live up the original, but has good effects, some capable performances and does offer some exciting action.

The Autopsy of Jane Doe (2016)



A father and son, both coroners, are pulled into a complex mystery while attempting to identify the body of a young woman, who was apparently harboring dark secrets.

Quite original horror tale made with some sense for the genre, gory, with an atmosphere of doom, but not without some humor.
