Movie Review – Kraven the Hunter
—
The good news: it could be worse. The bad news: not by much. The Action Some of the action choreography is good. Kraven at least has his own animalistic style. That’s something to enjoy. My only problem would be that the character is a little too over the top. It would seem that he has…

Movie Review – The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim
—
It’s sad to say, but true: I couldn’t wait for this movie to end. Where it goes wrong Where to start? There are so many options. Let’s start with the low-hanging fruit: the runtime. Excluding the 13 minutes of end credits, this movie was 2-hour 01-minute long. I don’t think it would be a challenge…

Data Analysis of Tom Hank’s filmography
—
in InfographicTom Hanks has had an illustrious career, and it’s still going strong. He has starred in, by my count, 59 movies over a 40-year career (1984-2024). That’s about 1.5 movies/year. But as much as he’s done, a few things stick out. For instance, he is the definition of A-list movie-star, yet he’s never been in…
