All 120 Movie Reviews from 2024
We watched 118 movies this year to get Peetimes and write reviews. Me (Dan) and Christene (Sis) see the bulk of the movie. Steven Blackman has been a pinch hitter for us, helping get Peetimes for a lot of limited-release movies that we would otherwise miss.

Reviews by Dan
Civil War wasn't my favorite movie, but I thought it was the best-made movie. The story, acting, plot, cinematography, editing, you name it. Everything was perfect. Note: we are each allowed to use the A++ rating just once a year.

Christene's Reviews
My poor sister was stuck with three WTF movies. Oh well, she gets paid to see this garbage.
And she gave The Garfield Movie an A+? Maybe her grades deserve a WTF! :-)
