Indie Movie Review – Repeat
I know that the big studios have been panicking about their health and, indeed, long-term future, which explains why so many blockbusting tent poles were withheld and all the fuss over Tenet actually being released. The main fear is, presumably, that people will get out of the habit of getting out of their comfy armchairs…

No… Time To Die?
This weekend it’ll all be over. No, I haven’t got an appointment with Dignitas and a one-way ticket to Switzerland. What I mean is that I have my tickets booked for Daniel Craig’s last outing as James Bond in No Time To Die and by this time next week I’ll have watched it, written the…

Movie Review – Dear Evan Hansen
—
Dear Evan Hansen was an incredibly well-done movie. The message that it contains hits home so hard that you’ll walk out of the theater a lot heavier than when you walked in. The ongoing issue with mental health has finally been given the attention it deserves. Ben Platt was simply amazing. He was able to…

The Giant James Bond Rewatch – Skyfall (2012)
I’m doing this review last of all despite it being my first pick… Skyfall is definitely my favourite Bond film, just edging out Casino Royale. I’ll admit that in this regard I’m at odds with the voters of IMDb.com… they have Casino Royale at 8.0/10 with Skyfall and Goldfinger tying for second on 7.7/10. I haven’t hidden my…

The Giant James Bond Rewatch – Die Another Day (2002)
—
Die Another Day has one of my favorite Bond openings. Bond fails to win the day and gets captured. We’ve never seen Bond held captive for so long before. (The opening credits compress time and show us some of the torture and interrogation Bond endures.) At that point in my life, I don’t think I…

James Bond, Mr. White, Dr. Madeleine Swann, and No Time To Die

Movie Review – Copshop
—
I can’t say I had any valid expectations going into the movie because all I knew of it was what I saw on the poster. I knew Gerald Butler was in it. He’s a mixed bag. I really like the actor and most of the movies he’s in, but he’s also been in a few…

Movie Review – Cry Macho
—
I hate to say it, but this was not some of Clint Eastwood’s better work. I just checked Clint’s filmography at RottenTomatoes and it’s a mixed bag. He’s had some home runs but also struck out on a few. This was definitely a strikeout. The critics currently rate Cry Macho at a 51% clip and…
