Movie Franchise Rewatch – Star Trek IX: Insurrection
Insurrection is one of those movies that you kind of forget about after seeing, which explains my inability to get this review out on time. It’s very…lightweight. To its credit, it feels like a middle of the road Star Trek: The Next Generation episode. I say credit, because a middle of the road TNG ep…

Movie Analysis: A Deeper Look at Mortal Kombat
—
Mortal Kombat… Need I Say More? Wow. I’ve gotta start off saying I thoroughly enjoyed it. The acting may not have been top notch. Cole specifically… But the storyline was decent. The nostalgia was there. The corny humor sprinkled throughout. The finishes and fatalities…it was all worthwhile. There are spoilers below. Proceed with caution… .…

Movie Review – Mortal Kombat
I used to play MK back in the 90s, but haven’t played it since and haven’t kept up with the mythology built around it. My wife has never played the video game and was confused by the plot and asked many questions. I told her she was overthinking it. There’s good guys and bad guys…

Movie Franchise Review – Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country
Looking over the entire Star Trek movie franchise, there are good ones, great ones, and outright poor ones. Star Trek 6: The Undiscovered Country is one of the good ones, and just misses being great. I’d say it falls lower than Wrath of Khan, The Voyage Home, and First Contact, but feels on a part…

Movie Review – Boss Level (2021’s Groundhog Day Loop film)
As the queen of Groundhog Day (GHD) time loop movies, of course I viewed and reviewed Boss Level. It’s only viewable on Hulu. This is too bad, because in a normal (ie, not CoVid year) this would be a crowd-pleasing blockbuster on the big screen. Seriously, Boss Level is a fantastic actioner that’s more comedic…

Indie Movie Review – 86 Melrose Avenue
86 Melrose Avenue starts with a bloody and battered Travis (Dade Elza) staggering down a street while sirens are blaring in the background and red & blue lights are flashing. Desperate for somewhere to hide, he stumbles across one of the few places that are open, the eponymous 86 Melrose Avenue, where he pulls out his gun…

Movie Review – Godzilla vs. Kong
—
[No Spoilers] Thank gawd. It didn’t suck. Godzilla vs King Kong looked epic in the previews and I’d say it lived up to expectation. Which is a relief because the last movie, Godzilla: King of the Monsters, was pretty awful, especially the plot and acting, and writing, and the monster fight scenes didn’t wow me…

Thoughts on Monster Universe Rewatch before Godzilla vs Kong
I did a rewatch of Godzilla 2014, Kong: Skull Island, and Godzilla: King of the Monsters in preparation for the release of Godzilla vs King Kong this week (March 31st) in theaters and on HBO Max. Godzilla 2014 When Godzilla came out in 2014 I gave it a C. It was enjoyable, but lacking. Upon…
