‘Armor’ Review: Suspense Stalls Out on a Bridge in an Uninspired Heist Thriller With Sylvester Stallone
Variety, Friday - 11/22/2024 - 03:30 AM

Variety, Friday - 11/22/2024 - 01:42 AM
If it had been released just two years ago, “Bonhoeffer” might have come across as simply the latest in a long line of respectable but predictable period dramas about brave Germans who dared to stand up to the Nazi regime. Today, however, the movie feels more like an uncomfortably timely cautionary tale with unsettling echoes […]
