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…

Movie Review – The Running Man 1987
—
It was fun rewatching The Running Man 1987. I don’t think I’ve seen it since it was originally in theaters. This movie could be the poster child for 1980s extra-cheese action movies. It’s far from the best of the bunch. Hell, it’s not even Arnold Schwarzenegger’s best action movie of 1987. He was also in Predator…

30th Anniversary Big Screen Rewatch – Shallow Grave
—
I’m sure I’ve said elsewhere that my local cinema has started showing old films as well as new releases. They’ve recently had “Through The Lens” seasons for Spielberg and Kubrick, and other anniversary showings. I’ve just booked tickets for a 25th anniversary screening of The Mummy, there’s an anniversary showing of The Matrix, as well…

Movie Review – Old Henry
—
If you’re hankerin’ to watch a western that flew under the radar, look no further than Old Henry, staring Tim Blake Nelson. This is an overall well-made movie. The only thing better than the writing is the acting and that’s because Tim Blake Nelson is one of the best, and most underrated, actors around these…

Movie Review – The Strangers: Chapter 1
—
The Strangers: Chapter 1 was a great beginning to what will hopefully be a great trilogy. The storyline was nothing that we haven’t seen before but it was the way they told the story and acted it out. The absolute star of the movie is Madelaine Petsch. She plays Maya, the female lead. I’ve loved…

Movie Review – Back to Black
—
Back to Black left me speechless. Marisa Abela nailed that role. I kept forgetting that I wasn’t actually watching Amy Winehouse. She perfected Amy’s mannerisms and voice. It was an absolute delight watching her take control. I’ve been a fan of Amy Winehouse from the very beginning, she had the most beautiful way of singing.…
