Contact – Silver Anniversary Movie Rewatch
What links French philosopher Voltaire, The Return Of The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, an ancient king of Assyria, and Captain Picard’s tea? The link is one of my favourite films. That film hits its 25th anniversary this summer; that film is Contact. One other thing before I get going, there may well be spoilers. All…

Movie Review – DC League of Super-Pets
—
DC League of Super-Pets was a good kids’ movie. I’m basing my review solely on the targeted audience. Little kids. The humor was there for them, there were some great moral lessons going on and the animation looked really cool for kids. This isn’t one of the kids’ movies that adults are still entertained in…

Movie Review – Paws of Fury: The Legend of Hank
—
There were many moments throughout the movie when the humor was funny to kids but the parents got the real meaning of the joke. They did a good job of keeping us adults entertained. I appreciate that movie people. Thank you They even broke the fourth wall many times. When an actor/animated character speaks directly…

Movie Review – Marcel the Shell with Shoes On
—
You can’t ask for a better movie that appeals to children and adults alike. Marcel the Shell with Shoes On will unquestionably become an endearing favorite family movie that will be watched for generations. The character voicing was perfect. Jenny Slate did a fantastic job as Marcel, and Isabella Rossellini was heartwarming as Nanna/Connie. The movie is…

Movie Review – The Forgiven
—
First and foremost this movie is definitely 100% a drama. The Forgiven trailer had me interested. The list of actors in it also piqued my interest. The actors did a good job in the movie. When I walked out of the theater, I was happy I saw it and found myself dwelling on it. Thinking…

Movie Review – Minions: The Rise of Gru
—
It’s starting to feel like they’re milking this franchise for all the money they can get from it without offering anything substantially new. Rise of Gru doesn’t come close to Despicable Me or the first Minions movie back in 2015. (No way, it was that long ago?) I think the best thing I can say about the movie is that it’s only about…

Movie review—Elvis
—
I’m going to keep this short because Steve T. wrote a nice in-depth review for this movie already. Based on positive reviews I was expecting a really good movie. After seeing it I can say that overall I wasn’t impressed. Pros The acting was superb. Austin Butler did as good a job as can be…

Movie Review – The Black Phone
—
The Black Phone had my full attention right from the start. Surprisingly, it had Runpee Mom from the get go too. Horror movies are not her thing, she prefers historical movies but I was lucky enough to convince her into going with me. I asked her what she thought as the credits were rolling and…

Movie Review – Elvis
—
I like Elvis’s music. I have enjoyed Baz Luhrmann movies. Music always conveys emotion, it’s fun to see it being used to help convey a story as well. In short, I liked the movie a lot. It was hard to sit there and not sing along. Movie soundtracks help me enjoy a lot of different…

Movie Review—Watcher
—
Let’s start off with, Watcher was a decent movie. I enjoyed it, but their marketing team might have set up some wrong expectations. Let me explain… The trailers kind of come across as a horror flick. Not as a slashy, gory, or monster kind of horror but a horror movie. IMDB has it listed as…
