Movie Review – Migration
—
Migration had me and my granddaughter rolling with laughter. This was such a fun movie that we lost ourselves in it. There is enough humor to keep the entertainment up to level 10, we never got bored with it. They did a good job of putting humor in there that the kids will get but…

Movie Review – Anyone But You
—
Anyone But You was delightful. The two main characters (Sydney Sweeney and Glen Powell) were great together, the chemistry between them oozed off of the screen. There were so many things to like. First, my favorite was the wardrobe choices. Everyone had great clothes! The setting was beautiful, what’s not to love about the coast of Australia?…

Movie Review – Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom
—
DC doesn’t disappoint. By that, I mean DC has been so consistently disappointing that I’ve come to expect their movies to be disappointing, and in that way, they don’t disappoint. Aquaman and The Lost Kingdom is a fitting end to the DCU, since the DCU is now itself, the Lost Kingdom. This will be the…

Movie Review – Poor Things
—
“Are we really just barbarians?”, a character whimsically asks of her friends in the film. This movie is a deeper, philosophical look at the human condition, nature vs. nurture, love, eroticism, and the impact of economic stratification. It is rare that I am truly “hooked” in the first three minutes of a film, but indeed…

Filmmakers often use visual and narrative mediums to explore questions about faith, purpose, and the human condition.

Movie Review – RENAISSANCE: A FILm by BEYONCÉ
—
Let me first confess that I am part of the BeyHive! I’ve been a fan since Beyonce’ started in 1997. My daughter’s first name is Destiny. Furthermore, as fate would continue, my wedding photo with Destiny’s dad was included in Jet Magazine with the cover pic of Destiny’s Child. I’m just saying, LOL, I’m a…

Movie Review – Silent Night
—
It is an interesting premise: make an action movie without dialog for the main characters. It puts a huge onus on the actors to communicate emotionally without using any dialogue. On that mark, they were pretty successful. However, I feel that they sacrificed the quality of the movie on a stunt, and it would be…

Movie Review – Godzilla Minus One
—
Godzilla Minus One is a perfect blend of mature storytelling with the 50s/60s movie style. Something many disaster/action movies get wrong is trying to incorporate too many characters and their experiences into the action. This movie puts the focus on a small group of people, and specifically one man. The story is beautifully constructed. The characters…

Movie Review – Wish

Wish was a delightful, enchanting and heart warming story good for all ages. I loved the song choices, they kept the pace up of the movie and added another level of entertainment. This will be a fun afternoon to spend with the family over the holiday weekend. Grade: A About The Peetimes: There are 2 great…
