Movie Review – Infinite Storm
—
I’m going to keep this review short, because what’s the point of writing a long review for a pointless movie? Plus, I have work to do. Infinite Storm wasn’t bad by any means. It was just… Pointless. Actually, there was a point, just that it all happened during a three-minute conversation. The rest of the movie…

M. Night Shyamalan’s movie not so “Old”
—
The origin of taphophobia, or the fear of premature burial, began in Eastern Europe in the 17th or 18th century. Since doctors had no reliable touchstone for death, people in comas would often wake to find themselves in pine boxes buried six feet underground. They would howl in fear and pain, frightening those who might…

Movie Review – X
—
Last night I think a miracle happened. I need to give you a little bit of backstory before I give you my review on X. For years, I’ve battled with my feelings towards any movie A24 releases. I’ve basically hated them all and threatened my brother that I would quit if he made me do…

Movie Review – Peace River
Peace River caught me off guard. I knew nothing about the movie going in. Lucky for me, prior to the showing there were interviews with the writer/actor, Benjamin M. Jones. He truly wrote this from his heart. I felt it throughout the entire film. The story was endearing, heartbreaking, and full of real-life situations and…

Movie Review – The Batman
—
The Batman has a few things to love, and a lot to like. There are hardly any disappointments. What I loved My impression is that in all of the Batman movies we’ve seen since Dark Knight we see mostly Bruce Wayne, and Batman fills in the action sequences. Batman is essentially Bruce Wayne’s alter-ego. That’s reversed in The Batman.…

Movie Review – Studio 666
—
I didn’t like it, a lot. To be fair, I’m not the target audience, by a long shot. I don’t like horror movies and before the movie I couldn’t name a single song by the Foo Fighters. Come to think of it, I still can’t. Just because I gave the movie a D/WTF doesn’t mean…

Movie Review – Cyrano
—
Peter Dinklage was masterful in expressing the hidden emotions of Cyrano de Bergerac. Cyrano is one of the more difficult characters to perform because he needs to say and express one thing to the characters in the movie, notably Roxanne, while simultaneously expressing to the audience his deep pain and longing for Roxanne. I can’t…

Movie Review – Uncharted
—
Cute, cute, cute. Stir together several heapings of The Goonies, Pirates of the Caribbean, and Raiders of the Lost Ark, fold in Tom Holland’s Spidey-like chattiness, and Uncharted is a tasty treat hitting the theaters right now. Indiana Jones is personally name-dropped, because, how could it NOT be, when the leads are crawling around ancient…

Movie Review – Death on the Nile
—
Really disappointing, especially as I liked Kenneth Branagh’s Murder on the Orient Express (2017) so very much. As in Orient, Death on the Nile is fabulously scenic and lush, with a great cast that seems to be trying to make a better movie out of this. Maybe at two hours and seven minutes, the movie is just too long…

Movie Review – Marry Me
—
What a fun, heartfelt movie. I’ve always enjoyed J Lo’s movies and this one doesn’t disappoint. The music was great and the acting was terrific. Owen Wilson played his role perfectly and the chemistry between the two was spot on. I loved the supporting cast, they gave me a warm fuzzy feeling. Sarah Silverman added…
