RIP Mjölnir – Who Can Lift Thor’s Hammer?
Who could pick up Mjölnir, beloved Hammer of Thor, God of Thunder? Who is considered worthy? What does worthy even mean in this context? This topic is no longer relevant, post-Infinity War, but the immensity of the Marvel Cinematic Universe lends itself to fun lists. So…who besides Thor was able to wield the late, sorely-missed hammer?…

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 Rewatch Review — Titanic
Is there any movie more touching and exciting than Titanic? And the first time you watch it, it’s completely unexpected. I didn’t even want to see this in the theater, and resisted for months. Fool that I am, I figured, “Yeah, it sinks. I know what happens. Why see it? I was never so glad…

Movie Review – Jumanji 2: Welcome to the Jungle
This sequel version of Jumanji is adorable and funny. Predictable, yes, but the story is based on a video game plot, so it’s kind of a baked-in thing. It’s also bit too pat in how each teenage character gets the perfect game avatar to grow as a person, but this is yet another thing that…

Movie Review – Justice League (RunPee Dan’s POV)
I enjoyed the movie. Not a lot, but enough. There was some decent humor — most of which revolves around Barry Allen/Flash. The action/fight scenes were fine. A few awesome moments here and there. The actors all did a good job. I’d say Ezra Miller, as Flash, stood out as the best. Ray Fisher, as…

Movie Review – Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets
—
This is a hard one to rate. It was super duper amazingly gorgeous. A+ visuals, almost Avatar-levels of creative beauty…it was definitely above the best of Guardians of the Galaxy’s fantastical “Knowwhere” and “Ego” scenes (stuff I generally tout as the prettiest sci-fi scenes in recent cinema). However, Valererian had a boring, predictable, throwaway plot…

Movie Review – Star Trek Beyond
I’m a big ST fan. I’ve watched all the TV series and all the movies. So I’m going to come at this review as a fan, not a casual moviegoer. All of three Abrams’ Star Trek movies have been well received by the critics and audience, so we can at least say that we’ve…

Movie Review – Inside Out
—
When Disney/Pixar releases a new animated film, people notice. Especially if their name is mom or dad. So, when trailers for Inside Out started floating around the inter webs, there was a collective “yippee” in the minds of thousands of parents everywhere. Chance are, that “yippee” came from the mouth of one inner voice –…

Movie Review – Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2
—
Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs 2 picks up where the 2009 movie left off — but even if you didn’t see the first movie you’re not going to be lost. It’s still a movie all about big food and little food roaming the countryside, being either very bad or very good. The animation was…
