A Captivating Casino Royale Movie Review
—
“Casino Royale” marks a significant turning point in the James Bond franchise, as it introduces us to a younger, more raw and vulnerable 007, portrayed by the charismatic Daniel Craig. The film follows Bond’s mission to bankrupt a ruthless terrorist financier, Le Chiffre, by defeating him in a high-stakes poker game at the Casino Royale…

Movie Review – The Front Room
—
What did I just see? Shut The Front Room door! This movie is a trip and a half. When the movie fired up, I saw that it was an A24 production and just knew at that moment we were in for a crazy train ride. I was totally right. Kathryn Hunter as Solange (the crazy mother-in-law) made…

Movie Review – Strange Darling
—
Because of the high critical acclaim (96% Rotten Tomatoes), I approached this Indie film filled with high expectations; and for the most part, it did not disappoint. Strange Darling is about a supposed serial killer who went on a killing spree in the western part of the United States between 2018-2020. It is a horror/thriller…

Movie Review – Reagan
—
I’m definitely not giving this movie an A because I’m a Reagan fanboy. Far from it. I’m super-liberal, socialist-democratic. I was too young to vote in 1980, and I voted for Mondale in 1984. But that isn’t to say that Reagan wasn’t the president that we needed at the time. And to be completely honest,…

Movie Review – AfrAId
—
AfrAId was slightly disappointing. The story was solid and it posed a bunch of really good questions regarding artificial intelligence. The part that has me in turmoil over the grade was the role of Meredith. (Katherine Waterston) I would love some feedback on what you Runpeeps think. She felt out of place to me. She…

Movie Review – The Forge
—
I love it when I’m dreading a movie and it turns out to be outstanding. That is precisely what happened with The Forge. What a strong, powerful, heartwarming story. Luckily, my granddaughter was there to see it with me, and it reached her. She could see what hard work, determination, and the right attitude can…

Movie Review – Blink Twice
—
Blink Twice was so-so. It had the potential to be really good but the lack of chemistry between the characters annoyed me to the point of disrupting the entire flow of the movie. The story was good. There were cool plot twists, surprises, and even a few chuckles. Sadly, that wasn’t enough to make the…

Movie Review – The Crow
—
This is not a movie review. This is a warning. There’s nothing worth seeing in this movie. If you’re a big fan of Bill Skarsgård, do yourself a favor and watch Boy Kills World. (Streaming on YouTube | Amazon for $5.99). There are spoilers ahead because… Why not. If you haven’t seen this movie yet…

Movie Review – Alien: Romulus
—
This movie was clearly made to appeal to the Gen-Z generation. And if it fails we’ll be able to say: Gen-Z exterminated the alien threat. Every character, save one, is in their 20s. The cast is a collection of young adults trying to escape a life of servitude. The good If you’re a lifelong Aliens…

Movie Review – Cuckoo
—
Sadly, this movie sucked. I have no idea what to write except to warn you. Save your money and your time and skip it. It made no sense what-so-ever. The acting was horrible. Even the noises were annoying. The only reason I stayed for the whole thing is I’d probably get fired if I left…
