A look at the MCU’s Phase Four movies and TV shows

Movie and TV preview: Here are my thoughts on the five movies and five TV shows of the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s Phase Four.

David steps into Allen role for ‘Whatever Works’ (2009)

Throwback Thursday (Movie review): It’s hard to imagine a better Woody Allen stand-in than Larry David. As such, “Whatever Works” works.

Mamet Monday (Movie review): This Jack Nicholson showcase launches Mamet’s big-screen writing career.

Superhero Saturday (Movie review): Tim Story delivers a safe, respectable introduction to Marvel’s first superteam.

Movie review: The cornball rom-com humor of Tom Holland’s second Spidey film hits the spot after “Endgame.”

Mamet Monday (Movie review): Boosted by sad-sack performances by the leads, this is mid-level Mamet.

Superhero Saturday (Movie review): More of a long music video than a film, this comic adaptation is a stylish misfire.

Superhero Saturday (Movie review): The storytelling web gets convoluted as the dark Spidey duology wraps.

Throwback Thursday (Movie review): This Kirsten Dunst film isn’t a classic, but it is a respectable mix of tennis and romance.

Mamet Monday (Movie reviews): “Sexual Perversity in Chicago” gets turned into a movie twice, with different degrees of success.
