What Downton Abbey is About, and How to Binge Watch It
I’m doing a 6-season rewatch of UK period drama Downtown Abbey — and Mary Mother of God — I’ve forgotten how melodramatic this show was. There are entire storylines I fast-forward past as I trudge along. (I refuse to pay any more attention the overwrought Anna/Mr. Bates storyline than I absolutely have to.) All The…

All Men In Black Films, Ranked
To prep for Men In Black: International, I did a little series rewatch, and discovered a few things: the original movie is still fresh and funny, the second film still hurts to watch, and I totally forgot everything that happened in the third MIB outing. But that’s actually a good thing. It was like getting…

First-View Movie Review – 47 Meters Down (2017)
47 Meters Down is a surprisingly decent shark movie. And it’s not even that scary – the horror level was low (and I’m a horror scaredy-cat, so trust me). What 47 Meters Down had going for it was a unique shark premise, and a gripping survival element. While the girls screamed a lot, both stepped…

Movie Review – Spider-Man: Far from Home – Fun, but a little underwhelming
I liked Spider-Man: Far From Home. I liked it a lot. But I didn’t love it, and that surprised me. I adore Tom Holland‘s version of Spider-Man, and think he’s the best Peter Parker ever done, no question. (Notice how this sidesteps Miles Morales‘ stunning Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse quite nicely.) And every appearance…

Movie Review – Midsommar
—
Midsommer is a mind blower. It starts slow but it picks up steam — and not just a little steam, but a lot. It is probably one of the most explicit movies I’ve ever watched. I went in expecting not to like it, because it seems I’ve hated every A24 production I’ve ever seen. They…

The Conjuring Universe Explained
With 2 mainline movies and 5 spin-off movies filling out the Conjuring Universe, no one would blame you for getting lost in Annabelle’s eyes… I mean getting lost in slight confusion. Obviously there are spoilers ahead, so if you haven’t seen these movies, then read at your own risk. But either way, we are going…

Movie Review – Yesterday
—
The only reason I didn’t give Yesterday an A+ is that, at least for now, I don’t think it’s as good as Love Actually — both written by Richard Curtis — and both are very similar. Yesterday checks all the boxes for a great film: it’s terribly well acted; the pacing rolls along with the…

Movie Review – Late Night
—
So, we have Emma Thompson, Mindy Kaling, and John Lithgow. It’s a recipe for a great movie. The writing was done perfectly by Mindy Kaling, never missing a beat when it comes to the one liners and caustic comebacks. I have to say that this amazing talent has a great future in Hollywood, and basically…

Movie Review – Annabelle Comes Home
I enjoyed Annabelle enough to garner a solid B+. I was hoping for a perfect A, but wasn’t blown away. It’s a good movie. There were several times I had chill bumps over my entire body and the audience seemed to share my feelings. I heard a bunch of screams and I was lucky enough…
