Beetz Grounds the Gory Pulp of They Will Kill You

The piece also surveys Nadav Lapid’s Yes!, a brash political satire; Mike & Nick & Nick & Alice, a time-traveling genre mash-up that struggles to blend its ambitions; and Pretty Lethal, a ballet-infused action comedy led by Uma Thurman, each balancing tone and spectacle in distinct ways.
