First View Movie Review – Primer (2004)
Primer was made with $7,000 USD, filmed mostly with two guys talking in a garage, and took home the Grand Jury Prize from the 2004 Sundance Festival. It features time travel, paradoxes, and a very dense script full of jargon. Primer doesn’t give anything away, and is barely comprehensible upon the first viewing. And that’s…

New Movie Review – Bill & Ted Face the Music (before a series rewatch)
Whoa. Bill & Ted 3: Face the Music didn’t suck. Not even decades later. The trilogy finale (one we never actually asked for) in Bill & Ted Face the Music is a worthy follow up to the wacky 80s and 90s time traveling com-fantasies, giving us two slacker characters we grew to love over the…

Movie Review – Range Runners (2020)
Range Runners …& Hiking Movies As a life-long avid hiker who seriously plans to through-hike long distance trails in the next few years (including The Pacific Crest Trail, The Appalachian, and El Camino in Spain), I’m picky about what is shown in ‘hiking movies’ or when people are plain stupid in the wilderness.

Movie Review – The New Mutants

This was a nice welcome back to the theater movie. It was fun and pulled me in very quickly, especially since this isn’t usually my kind of film. The first thing that comes to mind about The New Mutants was the chemistry. When you have a group of five characters, it’s usually difficult to pull…

Movie Review – About Time (2013)
—
It’s not a Groundhog Day movie About Time has time travel in it. Let’s get that out of the way. And while on the surface it seems to feature a Groundhog temporal loop, it doesn’t. The young man in question (a sincere, naive Domhnall Gleeson) can go back in time and fix things as often…

Movie Review – Tenet
—
So it’s here…Tenet. The first big blockbuster to emerge following the outbreak of Plague 2.0. Was it worth the wait? Well… I thought so! Is it action packed? Yes. Is it beautifully shot? Yes. Is it well acted? Yes. Has Christopher Nolan managed to get all his hallmarks in? Yes. So what’s Tenet about? Hmmm……
