Movie Review – Godzilla Minus One
—
Godzilla Minus One is a perfect blend of mature storytelling with the 50s/60s movie style. Something many disaster/action movies get wrong is trying to incorporate too many characters and their experiences into the action. This movie puts the focus on a small group of people, and specifically one man. The story is beautifully constructed. The characters…

Movie Review – Napoleon
—
Boring. I never fall asleep during movies, but I almost nodded off twice during this one. It was a slog to get through. Gladiator is one of my all-time favorite movies and I really hoped this movie would tap into some of that, but wow. Not even close. Acting Joaquin Phoenix is a generational talent, and at first…

There were a few things to like, but a whole bunch of “what the #$%@ are they doing” in this movie. The Good The acting was generally good. Headlining the effort is Tom Blyth as Coriolanus Snow. I thought he had a solid performance as the young Snow. I was especially impressed with Viola Davis…

Movie Review – The Marvels
—
I didn’t have high expectations for this movie. In fact, I can’t remember an MCU movie I was less enthusiastic to see. Unfortunately, it didn’t live up to my low expectations. TL;DR The overall direction of the MCU is a mess. It appears that events in this movie were force-fed to the writers, leaving them…

Movie Review – The Marvels
And so we come to the 33rd film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The Marvels is a bit like a mini-Avengers in that it isn’t single character lead. We have a trio running things under the control of Nick Fury (Samuel L Jackson); Carol Danvers (Brie Larson), Monica Rambeau (Teyonah Parris), and Kamala Khan (Iman…

Movie Review – Freelance
—
So far, Freelance has a 0% on RottenTomatoes from the critics with 14 reviews in. What exactly did they expect? There’s no question that this isn’t a great movie if you’re comparing it to, you know, all movies ever. But for what it tries to be, it does a pretty good job. No one will…

Indie Movie Review – The Price We Pay
—
There are some films which have an ending that is obvious from the first few minutes. This isn’t necessarily a bad thing though! For instance, I defy anyone to watch the first ten minutes of Strictly Ballroom and not be able to say how it will finish but that doesn’t stop it from having a…
