★★½ (2½ out of 4)
My streaming addict friends and I refer to a certain kind of time killer as “a pizza and beer movie.” And have I got one of those for you. It’s called “Apex.” It’s a major streaming hit on Netflix. And it stars Oscar winner Charlize Theron (“Monster”) in a role that’s eons away from awards bait, but really fills the bill as breathless adventure escapism even as it evaporates from your head.
