Movie Review – Truth or Dare
—
I’m impressed. It’s so hard to come across a good horror/scary film anymore that I’ve kind of given up. I went in with really low expectations and walked out really satisfied. This storyline was a solid foundation paired up with some great actors and directing. It’s new and fresh. The many layers of the movie…

Movie review: Sherlock Gnomes
—
Let’s start off by saying this — the trailers I saw made this movie look like it was going to be hilarious. I was bit by the deceiving trailer bug again. Yeah, there were funny parts, but not as many as I was expecting. I paid attention to the adults and the children in the…

Movie review: Unsane
—
Luckily, before watching Unsane, I looked it up on IMDB. I discovered that the entire movie was shot with an IPhone camera. I was really curious to see how the movie ‘looked.’ It was hard to get used to, and it kind of threw me off. For the first hour of the movie I really…

Movie review: I Can Only Imagine
—
I Can Only Imagine was an amazing movie. It was gut wrenching, sad, happy, moving, and powerful — all at the same time. I’ve always liked the song, but now I have a deeper understanding of where it came from. The childhood Bart went through was devastating to me, as a mother and grandmother. I cried…

Movie review: The Strangers: Prey at Night
—
The Strangers: Prey At Night…where to begin? Let’s start off on a positive note. I’m fairly convinced the makers of this movie fully intended on wanting you to hate the lead female role. Boy,oh boy, they nailed that one. Her character made my blood pressure rise. I was rooting for The Strangers to take care…

Movie review: Death Wish
—
I really liked this movie. Earlier, I was so bummed when I was told this was my movie for the week. I begrudgingly said yes, and stewed about it for days. The movie started and I was literally glued to the screen. I’m not into action at all, but this movie had enough substance that…

Movie review: Every Day
—
I’m giving this movie an A. It started slow and I was a little unsure…by about ten minutes in I thought I was going to hate it. I was very confused, and didn’t know where the movie was going. I was really wrong. They were just laying the groundwork for a phenomenal story. You won’t…

Movie Review – Peter Rabbit
—
This was a sweet little movie. We took our five year old granddaughter and she loved it. The theater was full and it seemed that all the kids were having a great time. I even saw lots of parents laughing too. This movie even looked pretty; I absolutely loved how they made the rabbits look.…

Movie Review – Forever My Girl
—
Forever My Girl was your average sappy sweet film. It had some serious — albeit predictable — ups and downs, but it kept you entertained. No, it’s not ‘The Notebook’ worthy, but I’m not angry I watched it. All the actors did a great job together and kept the flow going. The little girl, Billy,…

Movie review – Insidious: The Last Key
—
The Insidious franchise took a very difficult, yet ingenious approach to movie-making. Others have tried, and failed, to create a series of screenplays with a backwards timeline. Meaning, the first movie took place long after this last installment. With that said, they really did do a good job. Elise Rainier, played by Lin Shaye, did a…
