Six 100-Word Movie Reviews
1. Mike & Nick & Nick & Alice (2026) Director: BenDavid Grabinski, Actor: Vince Vaughn, James Marsden, Eiza Gonzalez I love time travel movies. I would have loved “Nick & Mike & Mike & Alice,” but by the middle half, the film loses its steam. Vince Vaughn (Nick) cleverly plays two versions of himself. James Mardsen (Mike) and Eiza Gonzalez (Alice) are also along for the adventure. Secondary characters, like Keith David, Jimmy Tatro, and Stephen Root, felt like such wasted talent. One can do a lot with time travel plotlines, but it’s evident that the writers ran out of ideas. The characters sit around having a full conversation about the series “Gilmore Girls,” which has nothing to do with the story.
