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…

Indie Movie Review – Minore
—
It’s funny how, sometimes, you can see something and it reminds you of something totally different. In this case the thing I saw was the Anglo-Greek film Minore and it reminded me of something that resonates with me for a variety of reasons…Dylan Thomas’ Under Milk Wood. Why does an almost seventy year old radio…

Indie Movie Review – Piper
—
As I’ve mentioned elsewhere, if you have a good story then you don’t just use it once! Whereas A Christmas Carol came from a novella written in 1843’s London, the story behind Piper dates back to the Middle Ages and from Hamelin, Germany when it was originally known as Der Rattenfänger von Hameln. In this…

Movie Review – Barbie
—
Let me start by apologizing for not giving this movie the thoughtful review it deserves. I lack the time and the talent to achieve that. I enjoyed Barbie for the humor and snarky, sometimes subversive, pop-culture references. I loved Barbie for its insight and playful criticism that is inspiring to be more cognizant of my…

Movie Review – The Flash
—
I wasn’t looking forward to this movie and to be honest, I really didn’t want to like it. The DC Extended Universe has been a hot mess and now James Gunn is coming in and burning it all down. It’s unclear how much, if any, of the current DCEU will carry over to the new…

Movie Review – The Little Mermaid
—
Hopefully, my 10-year-old grand-niece will go see this movie this weekend, and I’ll ask her to write a review because I can’t imagine why anyone would care what a 56-year-old man, who doesn’t care for musicals, thinks about a kid’s musical. But you’re here, so here goes. I guess the singing was pretty good, but…
