Movie Review – Jungle Cruise
—
I don’t know about you, but Jungle Cruise reminds me an awful lot of Disney’s other theme park movie inspiration: Pirates of the Caribbean. I distinctly remember the first time I saw a movie trailer for Pirates and I thought to myself: OMG, you can’t be serious. This is going to suck. And then we…

Movie Review – Snake Eyes
The first third of Snake Eyes had the potential to be a mediocre movie. But in the middle third, it went downhill quickly. There was hope that the action-packed final third would make up for it, but no. It was even worse. Any good action shots were in the movie trailer, which is usually a…

Movie Review – Space Jam: A New Legacy
Space Jam: A New Legacy is exactly as cheesy as you might expect; but it also pokes fun of itself, and LeBron, in a really charming way. LeBron is… Well he’s LeBron. There weren’t any cringe-worthy moments you might expect from a superstar athlete trying to crossover into acting. Crossover, see what I did there?…

Is Star Trek V: The Final Frontier the worst Trek movie?
TL;DR — I remembered The Final Frontier as terrible back in 1989 (and the plot/climax really is), but to my surprise it has a lot of lovely moments, decent humor, and good characterizations between the Big Three. It had its heart in the right place. The actors went all in, and the topic itself, if…

Classic Movie Review – The Milagro Beanfield War
The Milagro Beanfield War is a movie everyone should see to be delighted, laugh a lot, cry a little, and have a two hour cinematic fiesta. It’s chock full of chemistry between almost everyone, in a cast that encompasses an entire town, from children to the elderly. In fact, it’s the elders who steal the…

Top Ginger Kitties – The 6 Orange Cats in Sci Fi and Fantasy Movie Franchises
What is it about cats who are orange — and the movies? Especially in major, iconic science fiction and fantasy film franchises? It must be a ginger thing. There are mild movie spoilers here. But these aren’t new films, so all should be right in the universe. Further disclaimer: no curiosity killed any cat in…
