Movie Review – Batman vs. Superman
[Spoilers are limited to things seen in the movie trailer] I have to say, Batman vs. Superman didn’t wow me. That’s not completely true. Parts of it wowed me, but not many. Most of the movie tried to crank up the tension, which got a little tedious at times, and the payoff wasn’t always worth…

Movie Review – London Has Fallen
—
Critics hate this movie, but I think the creators did a pretty good job of making a movie that lands near the bulls eye for movie goers who like action, revenge, violence, and good guys vs bad guys. I’m not saying this movie is anywhere near a classic of the genre, but it is an…

Movie Review – Sausage Party – An R Rated Animated Film with Surprising Heart and A Real Message
—
This may look like a simple movie full of crass humor, but it’s more than that. There is actually a story in there about religion, and prejudices, that gives the story a solid framework on which to hang an abundance of crassness. There is a never ending supply of sexual innuendo throughout the movie…

Movie Review – Deadpool
Grade: A Not only is Deadpool a hilarious movie, it also works as an amazingly accurate barometer for gauging relationships. For instance, it can be scientifically proven that the number of times a married man laughs during this movie is inversely proportional to how much their mother-in-law likes them. Conversely, married women will find that…

Star Wars: The Force Awakens movie review
Grade: A- I can safely say that SW:TFA is the 3rd best Star Wars movie in the franchise. And let’s be clear, it would take a miracle for JJ Abrams to create something better than New Hope or Empire Strikes Back. This is easily the funniest movie in the franchise. Almost, but not every, funny…

Apple rejects a long existing feature in the RunPee app
—
Bad news: Apple has rejected my update to the RunPee app, so the fix for the Timer notifications–that broke because of a change Apple made–won’t be available for about another week. On top of that Apple is forcing me to remove access to the IMDb movie information available in the app–that has been a feature…

Movie Review – Creed
—
It must be true that practice makes perfect, because Sylvester Stallone gave a remarkable performance as the aged Rocky. Just because an actor might have started out a little rough around the edges, or because they are typecast into a narrow range of roles, doesn’t mean that they can’t act. Given the right material, Stallone…

Fantastic Four – movie review
—
Grade: F If you drag your expectations behind you, like an old wet mop used to clean theater floors, then you may not be too disappointed. Believe me, I hate being critical of the creative work that so many people put into a movie like this, but I can’t think of anything decent to say…

Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation – movie review
Grade: A Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation delivers everything you can ask for in an action movie. Most importantly the action is top notch. There is a great variety of scenes, from a motorcycle chase to underwater excitement. Best of all not all the best action scenes are shown in the previews, at least not the…
