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…

Movie Review – The Thing
—
John Carpenter’s The Thing is an all-time classic in my books. Sci-fi, horror, mystery, suspense, it has it all. Twelve men isolated in an Antarctica post over the winter. Having to deal with an unknown and unimaginable terror. The story really excels at the feeling of isolation and not knowing who to trust. It gets…

Movie Review – Lightyear
—
Lightyear was fun and somewhat unpredictable, but it doesn’t live up to the epic expectations set by previous Pixar movies. Let’s face it, Toy Story, Up, Finding Nemo, Inside Out, Incredibles, et al. have set the bar sky-high. If you expect Lightyear to join those ranks then prepare for mild disappointment. There’s nothing wrong with Lightyear; it’s a good movie…

A Jurassic Park Short: Battle at Big Rock (YES, it’s canon)
If you haven’t yet, watch the canon Jurassic World short: Battle at Big Rock. The main thing to understand is that this takes place officially and immediately after the end of Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, and before Jurassic World Dominion. SPOILERS: Don’t read any further if you have not seen JW2: Fallen Kingdom, or don’t…

Movie Review – Jurassic World Dominion
—
Jurassic World Dominion takes the DNA from all the previous Jurassic films to create a movie that doesn’t fly, doesn’t roar, doesn’t run, jump, or swim. It does manage to lumber from scene to scene, dragging out the action sequences far too long. This is a script that needed another year of editing, at least.…

Movie Review – Watcher
—
Dear Lord, where to begin? Watcher left me so annoyed that I can’t come up with a really snappy dig on it. This movie isn’t worth the time it would take for me to rip it apart. This will be short and not so sweet. I’m going to put full blame on the director. The…

Movie review—Bob’s Burger
—
I’ve never seen the Bob’s Burgers TV show. So going into this movie I had no point of reference. But it also means I had no expectations. It is a potential problem most TV related movies can have. Can we capture that elusive new audience? Maybe but they’re going to have to do some things…

Movie review—Top Gun: Maverick
—
Note: Steve (Unitog) is our resident Peep in training. Much like Top Gun, we put our trainees through a rigorous training regime before setting them loose. This is Steve’s first review for RunPee. We’d be delighted if you left him feedback in the comments below. Top Gun 1986 was a classic movie for me. Therefore,…

Thirty Years Just Flies By – Strictly Ballroom – A Rewatch Review
—
On 10th May 1992 a film was premiered at the Cannes Film Festival and received a fifteen minute standing ovation. Then an agent from the Rank Organisation dashed in to snap up the UK film rights. It was the debut feature from a young Australian auteur who would go on to win awards for theatre,…
