Movie Review – Copshop
—
I can’t say I had any valid expectations going into the movie because all I knew of it was what I saw on the poster. I knew Gerald Butler was in it. He’s a mixed bag. I really like the actor and most of the movies he’s in, but he’s also been in a few…

A Groundhog Day Perspective on Ryan Reynold’s Free Guy

We all know that things have been all over the place, thanks to the devastation caused by Plague 2.0. There used to be an order to things; films came out in the cinema for a few weeks or months, depending on how popular it was assessed they would be. The phrase “released directly to video”…

The Giant James Bond Rewatch – GoldenEye (1995)
GoldenEye is an important Bond film. It ended the six-year hiatus since License to Kill, during which Timothy Dalton quit and Alfred R. Broccoli stepped down as producer. It introduced Pierce Brosnan in his first outing as James Bond. And it was the basis for an extremely popular video game, one which I have fond memories…

Movie Review – The Card Counter
—
When I saw that Martin Scorsese was the executive producer, I thought this movie would be on par with the likes of Taxi Driver or Goodfellas. Wow, I was so totally wrong. Simply put, this movie sucked. It’s a dark character study, which is usually great as long as the writing is well done. Nope,…

The Giant James Bond Rewatch – License to Kill (1989)
The 1980s were a weird time. Children’s cartoons became both commercial and dark. A group of singing raisins released an album. MTV actually showed music videos. Jazzercise was a thing. And they made a Bond film that sucked all the joy out of the franchise. What I dislike about License to Kill Let me start…

Movie Review – Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings
TL;DR Shang Chi was enjoyable, but not great. Visually appealing, whimsical, and has plenty of humor without being forced. For me, the most sensible way to grade an MCU movie is against the other MCU movies. Generally speaking, Shang Chi falls in the middle third for me. Not the cream of the MCU crop, but…

Movie Review – The Protégé
—
I didn’t have high expectations going in, and so I wasn’t disappointed. It’s a decent movie with some nice dialog that will make you laugh. Mostly delivered by Michael Keaton, of course. The action was solid, but not spectacular. Maggie Q. was believable in her role as a badass assassin. As advertised, this movie is…
