Movie Review – Greta – Less Teeth, Still A Good Bite
—
Greta didn’t have the teeth of some more memorable thrillers, such as A Quiet Place or Get Out, but it did have a good bite. The first half of the movie was loaded with dramatic exposition, and the last half was the payoff, giving us one heck of a quirky ending. I loved it! I…

Movie Review – Fighting with My Family – Pleasant, Non-Demanding Fun
Fighting with my Family is a pleasant little true-life-based sporting movie leaving you feeling a little happier than when you went in.

Movie Review – Run the Race – Faith-Based but Sad
—
As is my usual, I’ll address the target audience first. Run the Race has all the ingredients needed for a faith-based movie — a loss of faith, a terrible tragedy, hope, and renewal.

Zero Song – Video & Lyrics from Ralph Breaks the Internet
Ralph Breaks the Internet, the lovable sequel to Wreck-It Ralph, plays almost like a Disney princess musical, which it kind of is, as an affectionate parody Disney surprisingly put forth in a very meta manner. (Disney having a sense of humor about themselves floored me in almost every way.) It’s pretty catchy, but not the…

All The Stars – End Credits Song from Black Panther – Video and Lyrics
Up for Best Original Song at the Oscars this year, All The Stars from Black Panther is looking very good. It’s up against the big contender Shallow from A Star Is Born, but it could certainly bring in a win if the Academy sees fit to go in a different direction from their usual drama-type…
