This week, pop culture critic Richard Crouse reviews new movies: 'The Woman King,' 'Confess, Fletch,' 'Moonage Daydream' and 'Pearl.'
Director Ti West and actress Mia Goth have returned just months after SXSW darling \
Movie review: 'Pearl' lets Mia Goth shine in bravura performance. Pearl, in theaters Friday, is a fine vehicle for a bravura Mia Goth performance. There's just enough surrounding her to get viewers through the movie, but she is the reason it exists.
Ti West's prequel to his fun, period slasher 'X' is a dull film lacking in depth or thrills. Mia Goth, however, is absolutely fantastic.
Though it's not quite as sharp as X, Pearl is still an entertaining and fearsome prequel that showcases Mia Goth's immense talent.
