Tom and Jerry was as cute as I was expecting. It was fun and full of entertainment. We were in a sold out theater half filled with children and the other half adults. I’m pretty sure I heard more adults laughing. We took our eight year old granddaughter with us and she was thrilled. I…

Indie Movie Review – Return To Splatter Farm
Return To Splatter Farm is listed on IMDb as a Horror/Thriller. That worries me a bit, as that indicates that the humour wasn’t intentional. I don’t have the benefit of having seen the original to know whether this is intentional or not but, as is well-known, I’m a bit of a grading softy, so I’ll…

Well, let’s start by saying 2020 sucked, movie-wise. At least in the theatrical releases. With the pandemic keeping us inside, theaters have been (mostly) closed all year — tough for film fanatics like us.

New Years Movie Rewatch Review – Bridget Jones’s Diary
Back in the mid to late nineties there was a publishing phenomenon… Helen Fielding had written a faux diary about a thirty-something singleton called Bridget Jones. Bridget Jones’s Diary went on to become what The Guardian named as one of the ten novels that best defined the 20th century. Inevitably, it was snapped up to become the…

Movie Review – Promising Young Woman
We did it folks! We’ve almost brought 2020 to a close and I’m happy to report my final movie of the year was incredibly fun. Promising Young Woman was so fun that I ended up laying down in the fetal position and crying, “Will I ever win?!” Let me explain what happened. Note: forgive me,…
