Movie Review – Elio
This was not Pixar’s best, but admittedly, that is a high bar. The moral of the story is good, not great. My complaint is that this isn’t nearly as compelling to adults, at least to me and my wife, as many of the Pixar movies are. However, there were about a dozen kids in the theater […]

Movie Review – 28 Years Later
After an 18-year hiatus, the 28 Days Later franchise returns with the same DNA that made the original revolutionary. While zombie fatigue has set in across Hollywood, Danny Boyle and Alex Garland understand that the infected were never really the point—it was always about how ordinary people navigate extraordinary circumstances while trying to hold onto […]

Independent Film Review – God’s Soldier
I don’t know if there’s some sort of tax exemption scheme which means it is cheaper to shoot in South East Asia than anywhere else but this is the second lower budget film set and shot in Thailand I’ve seen this week. I was over there in the nineties and it was nice to see […]

Independent Film Review – High Rollers
You have to wonder what percentage of the budget for High Rollers was spent on John Travolta. I’m guessing a fairly sizeable chunk. Having said that, it was worth it! I wouldn’t say that I was a huge fan of Mr Travolta but I have seen a fair few of his films and enjoyed them […]

Independent Film Review – Last Resort
A fairly modern trope of action films, the one man army is, usually, a heavily armed and well-trained combatant able to face numerous enemies alone and oftentimes facing multiple opponents. I say fairly modern because, to my mind, the one man army concept dates back to the sixties and, to me, the sixties is relatively […]

Movie Review – The Life of Chuck
Magical. Do you need to know anything else? It’s co-written by the director and… Who’s this other guy named Stephen King? Within the first 30 minutes of the movie, I was thinking this had that ineffable Stephen King quality. By the end I thought, “It’s either King, or someone trying very, very hard to channel […]

Movie Review – How to Train Your Dragon
As the train of live-action money-grabs remakes continues, this one isn’t half bad. It is still a charming story that is good, but not Peak Pixar good. Acting Casting for a live-action like this has to be one of the hardest casting jobs around. There is a very specific look that the actor has to […]

The Cinematic Journey of Keanu Reeves: A Data-Driven Deep Dive
Keanu Reeves, an actor who has navigated the tumultuous currents of Hollywood for four decades, has curated a career that is as enigmatic as it is iconic. From a time-traveling, air-guitaring teenager to a cyber-messiah and a seemingly invincible hitman, his filmography is a fascinating study in genre, performance, and audience perception. In this deep […]
Anything Extra
One of the favorite features of the RunPee app is to let you know if there is Anything Extra during the end credits. We don’t just give you a yes or no. If there are extras, we’ll tell you when they happen, but without spoiling the fun.
