Movie Review – Sonic the Hedgehog 3
—
My gosh, I just saw the new Sonic 3 movie, and it was SO funny! Sonic was super fast like always, and Tails had the cutest tail ever! The Ohanimals looked really real, like they could jump out of the screen and play with me. Some of the jokes made me laugh so hard! There…

Movie Review – Mufasa: The Lion King
—
I got the impression from the movie that the creators were uninspired. It feels like someone at Disney HQ got the bright idea to make a prequel to The Lion King and then hired some writers to get the job done. The writers are: Irene Mecchi: The Lion King, Brave, The Hunchback of Notre Dame, etc.…

Movie Review – Kraven the Hunter
—
The good news: it could be worse. The bad news: not by much. The Action Some of the action choreography is good. Kraven at least has his own animalistic style. That’s something to enjoy. My only problem would be that the character is a little too over the top. It would seem that he has…

Movie Review – The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim
—
It’s sad to say, but true: I couldn’t wait for this movie to end. Where it goes wrong Where to start? There are so many options. Let’s start with the low-hanging fruit: the runtime. Excluding the 13 minutes of end credits, this movie was 2-hour 01-minute long. I don’t think it would be a challenge…

Movie Review – Y2K

“Y2K” is a hilarious trip down memory lane, capturing the quirks and anxieties of the late ’90s as the world braced for a potential technological meltdown. The film cleverly intertwines humor with nostalgia, resonating deeply with those who grew up during that era. The characters are relatable, embodying the carefree yet paranoid spirit of the…

Movie Review – The Return
—
The Return, featuring Ralph Fiennes as Odysseus, is a captivating adaptation of the classic tale. Fiennes delivers a remarkable performance, embodying the complexity and depth of his character with finesse. The film’s mood is expertly crafted, immersing viewers in a world of tension and emotion. However, the pacing slightly falters, leading to a sense of…

Movie Review – Moana 2
—
The good news: we were in at theater filled with, what sounded like, young children. It sounded like they were engaged with the movie throughout. There is plenty of action and funny antics, and a good amount of song and dance. Young kids will eat it up. But, if you’re the parent tasked with taking…

Movie Review – Wicked
—
Let me say upfront that I’m not a fan of musicals, so I’m not the target audience. I could be the poster child for the inverse-target audience. So, if you’re a 57-year-old white guy who doesn’t like musicals, read on. 🙂 Just because I don’t like musicals doesn’t mean I can’t appreciate them. For instance,…

Movie Review – Gladiator II
—
I think The Critical Drinker said it best: We are not entertained. Not to say that this is a bad movie. It isn’t. After all, this movie is directed by Ridley Scott, who also directed Alien, Blade Runner, Thelma & Louise, The Martian and what else…? Oh yeah, the first Gladiator. Many of the qualities of a great…
