Movie Review – Drive-Away Dolls
—
Drive Away Dolls feels like a lesbian version of Pulp Fiction that was written by Wes Anderson. I think that’s a good thing, but maybe it’s a little too much of a good thing. Since my first priority while watching a movie is to get good Peetimes I always make sure I know how long the movie…

Movie Review – Madame Web
—
Obviously, no one involved with making this movie can see into the future. If they could, they wouldn’t have made this movie. It would have been more fitting to make this an animated movie aimed toward eight-year-olds. Sorry, not to insult eight-year-olds, but this is the level of maturity this movie contains. Here’s an example…

Movie Review – Bob Marley: One Love
—
This movie offers a glimpse into the life and legacy of the iconic reggae legend Bob Marley. I’m a casual fan – meaning I like his music but I rarely remember to look his music up in my leisure time – so it was nice to know a little more about where he gets his…

Movie Review – Lisa Frankenstein
—
Lisa Frankenstein was a delightfully fun movie. One word keeps coming to mind, whimsical. From the sets, to the costumes, right down to the acting. It was extraordinarily well put together. Kathryn Newton (Lisa) did a fantastic job. She was just as much fun to watch as the movie was. I loved the way she…

Movie Review – The Jungle Bunch 2: World Tour
—
Jungle Bunch: Operation Meltdown was a cute film but it didn’t quite grab me or my granddaughter. I think the age group that would best enjoy this film is around 6-7 years old. Any younger and they wouldn’t understand and any older, they would be bored. I didn’t realize there was a previous one or that it’s…

Movie Review – Maestro
—
“I love music so much that it keeps me glued to life,” Leonard Bernstein (Lenny), world-renowned composer, asserts emphatically. This film pays homage to his life, but equally, highlights the blemishes, foibles, and struggles which were inherent in it. I will try to keep this review essentially “spoiler-free” such that you can appreciate the movie…

Movie Review – Founders Day
—
Founders Day was not that bad, It was definitely better than I thought it would be. The story was a lot more defined and not quite as easy to figure out as I had assumed. Shame on me, I’m happy to report that they did a pretty good job with this horror flick. There are a lot…

Movie Review – I.S.S.
—
I thought this movie was going to be worse than it was. My expectation going in was around a D-. But I’ll give them credit, it wasn’t bad. That being said, it definitely wasn’t enjoyable either because, you know, the seemingly total destruction of planet Earth. But that’s just the backdrop; literally, in many scenes,…

Blade Runner 2049—rewatch review
—
I rewatched Blade Runner 2049. It is a masterful, though sometimes flawed, movie. Let’s save the discussion of the plot flaws for another day. What I’m interested in is what makes Denis Villeneuve stand apart from so many other directors. I think it’s pretty simple: he lets actors act. Some might scoff at that comment,…

Movie Review – The Book of Clarence
—
I’m not sure how to phrase this without sounding rude but I really disliked this movie. You were thrown into this world without enough backstory to understand what is being told, they jump around and do a terrible job of telling you the names of the characters. Thinking about the story, it could have been great. It’s…
