Movie Review – The Bikeriders
—
The Bikeriders starts off following Kathy (Jodie Comer) into the bar the club hangs out in. On a chance encounter, she meets up with Benny (Austin Butler) and it’s almost love at first sight. Kathy is a trip, she has such a screen presence that her style blew me away, and she almost hypnotized me…

Movie Review – Inside Out 2
—
Inside Out was absolutely charming, endearing and thought provoking. Disney accomplished turning something (puberty) that’s hard on everyone into something that can be handled with simple kindness and love. I took my granddaughter and her best friend to see the movie. My granddaughter thought it was cute but she felt it was better suited to…

30th Anniversary Rewatch – Speed
—
How can Speed be thirty years old when 1975 is only twenty years ago? Such is the vagaries of the perception of time concomitant with old age that has more to do with my family doctor than Doctor Who. If there has to be a film to watch again in order to celebrate an anniversary…

Movie Review – The Watchers
—
The Watchers had me on the fence. It’s not as good as I was hoping it would be but it definitely wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be. Knowing this film was attached to the Shyamalan name I was excited because I know there are going to be things you miss and won’t…

Movie Review – Bad Boys: Ride or Die
—
This is the first Bad Boys movie I’ve seen—at least, I think it is. If I’ve seen another, it certainly didn’t leave an impression. Was I disappointed? Not really, because my expectations going in were low. The plot was, you know, good enough to keep the story going. The acting from the supporting cast had…

Movie Review – Babes
—
Babes had me roaring with laughter. The hormonal humor that is present throughout the entire movie is beyond funny. There’s a particular scene in the movie where Dawn’s water is slowly breaking in a theater seat, and I found myself laughing so hard I almost peed in my theater seat! Yes, it’s that funny. Not…

Movie Review – In a Violent Nature
—
I could have filmed this movie on my phone with the help of my granddaughter and I promise you, it would be better than this movie was. There was over half an hour of the killer slowly walking away from the camera. Those were the tense moments and I’m being generous there. The cast was…

Learning what “being seen” means after rewatching True Lies 1994
—
Who knew that a James Cameron action movie made in the mid-90s would be the key to understanding the concept of “being seen?”

Movie Review – The Garfield Movie
—
The Garfield Movie absolutely delighted me. They were able to create a story that was heartfelt, hilarious and tender. As any Garfield fan would know, his sarcasm is on point. Garfield wasn’t the only funny one, Odie totally stepped up to the plate. If that fat orange cat only knew the amount of problems Odie…

Movie Review – Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga
—
It may take George Miller almost a decade to get a movie out, but when he does he doesn’t disappoint. I really can’t believe that Mad Max: Fury Road came out in 2015. Where do the decades go? Everything You Would Expect When I think of George Miller the first thing that comes to mind is…
