Movie Review – The Black Phone
—
The Black Phone had my full attention right from the start. Surprisingly, it had Runpee Mom from the get go too. Horror movies are not her thing, she prefers historical movies but I was lucky enough to convince her into going with me. I asked her what she thought as the credits were rolling and…

Movie Review – Watcher
—
Dear Lord, where to begin? Watcher left me so annoyed that I can’t come up with a really snappy dig on it. This movie isn’t worth the time it would take for me to rip it apart. This will be short and not so sweet. I’m going to put full blame on the director. The…

Movie Review – Men
—
I saw Men last night. It’s been twelve hours since I was sitting in my seat and I’m still confused by what I saw. I was hoping for an epiphany overnight but alas, I’m still scratching my head. It’s at this point in my review I would like to give a shout-out to the most…

Movie Review – Firestarter
—
Luckily, I went in with really low expectations of the new Firestarter. When I found out that Blumhouse was doing it my expectations went a little higher. That was a mistake. This movie was dreadful. Epically dreadful. Zac Ephron is great at acting in certain types of movies, this wasn’t one of them. He wasn’t able…

Movie Review – Memory
—
The easiest way to explain Memory is it’s a memory of all of Liam Neeson past movies. It’s Liam doing his thing like always. He still impressed me with his ability to crush the bad guys at 69 years old. That’s where the great stuff ends. I felt like the supporting cast fell flat. The…

Movie Review – Father Stu
—
Father Stu was so much more than I was expecting. Mark Wahlberg really nailed it. I could feel his pain and suffering and the faith that he developed. The transition that his character goes through is remarkable. This was based on a true story, my heart goes out to this guy. At every attempt of…

Movie Review – Ambulance
—
I loved this movie. I can’t emphasize that enough. It’s movies like this that kills me putting in Peetimes. My recommendation is to empty your bladder before the movie begins. Everything you see is for a reason. Michael Bay gave us another tremendous movie that was so well played out that my entire theater was…

Movie Review – The Contractor
—
The Contractor was pleasantly surprising. Going into the theater last night I didn’t know anything about the movie. I hadn’t seen a trailer or heard anything about it so I had no expectations. I’m happy to report that it was overall, pretty decent. Not great but it didn’t suck. I can break it down into…

Movie Review – X
—
Last night I think a miracle happened. I need to give you a little bit of backstory before I give you my review on X. For years, I’ve battled with my feelings towards any movie A24 releases. I’ve basically hated them all and threatened my brother that I would quit if he made me do…

Movie Review – Peace River
Peace River caught me off guard. I knew nothing about the movie going in. Lucky for me, prior to the showing there were interviews with the writer/actor, Benjamin M. Jones. He truly wrote this from his heart. I felt it throughout the entire film. The story was endearing, heartbreaking, and full of real-life situations and…
