Movie Review – The Equalizer 2
I gave the first Equalizer movie an A+, so this one had a tough act to follow. Plus, I just rewatched the first movie last night before seeing EQ2, so it’s fresh in my mind. EQ2 is a very good movie, but not as good as the first. The action is about as good, with the…

Movie Review – Skyscraper
Not even duct tape could hold together this mess of a movie. I’m willing to overlook a lot of unrealistic stuff in order to enjoy a good Dwayne Johnson movie, but this one just doesn’t offer enough of a payoff to warrant the price of a movie ticket. Or even just two hours of your…

Jurassic World: Missed Opportunities

Don’t think for a second that I don’t realize that it’s difficult to write a script for a movie like this. Getting handed the responsibility of writing a script…

Movie Review – Incredibles 2
Pixar is known for their genius in telling stories that appeal to adults as much as kids. Incredibles 2 is no exception. As with every sequel, the question is: was it as good as the first?

Movie Review – Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom
Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom has all the tense action and one liners you would expect based off the history of the franchise. But I hope you don’t expect anything more than a template of a story to support it. The first hour of this movie plays like it was written with some basic storytelling application.…

Movie Review – Show Dogs

This is a silly stupid comedy that I think was intended for a 5-7 year old audience. It has a 12% Audience rating from RottenTomatoes.com. I think that says it all. Grade: D-

Movie Review – Deadpool 2
Deadpool 2. Funny? Without question. As funny as the first? Close, but not quite… Okay, now that I think about it, yeah, it was as funny as the first. Deadpool 2. Great action? Absolutely. Was the action as good as the first? Nope. This has hardly a knock on the movie. The first Deadpool was…
