Jason Flatt is the Sr Editor of But Why Tho? and an educator working with music, food, and writing to strengthen communities and invite justice.

REVIEW: ‘The Death Of Robin Hood’ Is Pretty, Violent, And Little Else

Michael Sarnoski’s The Death of Robin Hood is an exceptionally violent revisionist telling of the final days of Robin Hood (Hugh Jackman) and Little John (Bill Skarsgård). Distributed by A24, the movie is filled with beautiful cinematography and a performance by Hugh Jackman unlike anything he’s done lately. There is a somewhat intriguing thread about how stories and legends transform over time, but the characters don’t offer enough depth to fully connect with their struggles.

You don’t have to have grown up queer in the mid-2000s to connect with Hayley Kiyoko’s coming-of-age drama. Co-written by Stefanie Scott and based on a 2015 song and music video of the same name by Kiyoko, Girls Like Girls captures the exact tension of feeling alone and hurt at a vulnerable young age. With wise camera placements, plenty of Y2K aesthetic, and excellent performances, Girls Like Girls is as solid a directorial debut as it is a summertime queer romantic drama.

In a media landscape well over-saturated with sequels and IP maintenance projects, while original projects of all kinds languish at major studios for lack of resources or corporate interference, the Toy Story franchise has and still remains one of the few to never overstay its welcome—if we ignore one certain ill-fated cash-grab, anyway. Toy Story 5 is more than just the gold standard of what a sequel can be, several films into a long-running franchise.
