Movie Review – A Wrinkle in Time
I’m trying to figure out how to make A Wrinkle in Time make any sense. I love fantasy and science fiction, and am very forgiving of stories in these genres. From the trailer, I figured this would be a really pretty excursion into time travel, with kids discovering their powers in a whimsical land. The…

Movie review: Death Wish
—
I really liked this movie. Earlier, I was so bummed when I was told this was my movie for the week. I begrudgingly said yes, and stewed about it for days. The movie started and I was literally glued to the screen. I’m not into action at all, but this movie had enough substance that…

Movie review: Red Sparrow
—
If you’re a big fan of Jennifer Lawrence — and who isn’t — there’s a lot to like in this movie. She’s the focal point of nearly every scene, superb in all of them. Jennifer’s character (Dominika) has the very subtle expressions only a great actress could pull off. Even when she’s tortured, Dominika suppresses…

Movie Review – Fifty Shades Freed
—
I’m not an old fan of the 50 Shades trilogy — in fact, this is the only movie in the series I watched. However, I can happily say I wasn’t lost at all, so first timers can pop in and enjoy it. It had a decent story, which I was not expecting, based on the…

We have a twofer review for you for Game Night! RunPee Jilly has her review first, and RunPee Niece has her review below. Enjoy! Game Night took a satirish version of the caper standby and presented something really different. The comedic ensemble lent a sense of stylish fun to the proceedings, and nothing was as…

Movie review: Sampson
—
It saddens me to have to give a movie about one of the greatest stories from the Bible such a poor grade, but Samson was so poorly made — I was compelled to give it a failing grade. The direction was sub par, the pacing was tedious, and the acting was an insult to the actual…

Movie Review – The 15:17 to Paris
—
It’s not unusual for me to disagree with professional critics, but I was almost apoplectic to read the scathing reviews given to The 15:17 To Paris. The chief complaint seems to be the hour we sit through just to get to the action. So here’s my take on that; I liked being shown the lives…

Movie review: Annihilation
—
This movie does a good job of creating an atmosphere of mystery. It feels like it’s going somewhere profound, but just ends up being bizarre and cliche. This movie felt a lot like the movie Arrival. It builds mysteriously and there are lots of flashbacks. But where the ending of Arrival was, for me, completely unexpected, this…

Movie Review – Peter Rabbit
—
This was a sweet little movie. We took our five year old granddaughter and she loved it. The theater was full and it seemed that all the kids were having a great time. I even saw lots of parents laughing too. This movie even looked pretty; I absolutely loved how they made the rabbits look.…
