Superman soars with David Corenswet, Rachel Brosnahan, Nick Offerman fights to be Sovereign, Don’t Let’s Go To The Dogs Tonight — Theatrical Release Movie Guide for July 11 from FilmsGoneWild.com
Superman
Starring: David Corenswet, Rachel Brosnahan, Nicholas Hoult, Directed by: James Gunn
Synopsis:
Superman must reconcile his alien Kryptonian heritage with his human upbringing as reporter Clark Kent. As the embodiment of truth, justice and the human way he soon finds himself in a world that views these as old-fashioned.
Critics:
“Gunn’s objective is to banalize the very concept that Snyder sought to elevate. He demeans Superman’s virtue.”
– Armond White, National Review
“Mr. Gunn is determined to shake things up a lot, and does. Different, however, is not always good.”
– Kyle Smith, Wall Street Journal
“This Superman is, more than anything, concerned with our society’s struggle to accept the possibility of inherent goodness. The result is an optimistic movie, one that sees a hopeful way forward for both Superman and the world’s other caped men and women.”
– David Sims, The Atlantic

Sovereign
Starring: Nick Offerman, Jacob Tremblay, Dennis Quaid Directed by: Christian Swegal
Synopsis:
Inspired by real events, SOVEREIGN is a tense and provocative true crime thriller about a father and his teenage son — Jerry and Joseph Kane (Nick Offerman and Jacob Tremblay) — who follow the Sovereign Citizen belief system, a deeply anti-establishment worldview rooted in distrust of government authority. As the pair travel across the country delivering self-taught legal seminars and pushing back against systems they believe have failed them, their journey brings them into conflict with Police Chief Jim Bouchart (Dennis Quaid), setting off a tragic chain of events that forces a reckoning with power, principle, and the limits of freedom.
Critics:
“The movie is a real-world thriller that’s also a riveting character study that’s also a portrait of the place where the reactionary politics of today curdles into obsession.”
– Owen Gleiberman, Variety
“A meeting of “Leave No Trace” and “Hell or High Water,” “Sovereign” is a thought provoking political work whose sympathetic eye is given focus by its potent cast.”
– Robert Daniels, RogerEbert.com
“John and Adam Bouchart’s story might resonate with that of Jerry and Joe Kane’s, and it would certainly justify a movie all its own, but what it adds to the Kanes’ tragedy isn’t worth the extent to which it robs this portrayal of their pain.”

Don’t Let’s Go To The Dogs Tonight
Starring: Lexi Venter, Embeth Davidtz, Zikhoma Bali ; Directed by: Embeth Davidtz
Synopsis:
“Don’t Let’s Go to the Dogs Tonight” thrusts us into the tumultuous world of 8-year-old Bobo, whose childhood unfolds on her family’s Rhodesian farm, now Zimbabwe, as the Bush War rages to its bitter end. Set against this violent backdrop, and seen through her eyes, we witness the family’s desperate attachment to Africa’s soil and the deep, festering scars of a war that reshapes both land and soul.
Critics:
“The movie is sometimes funny, sometimes heartrending, but always invitingly candid and relatable. In its specificity it winds up being universal: As children, we really were odd little beasts, weren’t we?”
– Kyle Smith, Wall Street Journal
“To set the tone, an early sequence has a hungover Nicola machine-gunning a snake in the kitchen, then ordering the help to clean up the blood. “Sorry about the mess,” she says blithely. “Bring me my tea, please.”
– Amy Nicholson, Los Angeles Times
