Movie Review – Seberg
—
An absolute stunning portrayal of a shocking travesty. I feel my previous line says it all, but let’s go a little deeper, starting with Kristen Stewart’s performance. That gal did her homework on Seberg; at times I forgot it was Stewart — it totally felt like I was watching the actual Jean Seberg. (Yes, I…

Movie Review – The Invisible Man
—
There’s no question that Elisabeth Moss gets an A+ for her performance in this movie. The movie may be titled The Invisible Man, but it was all about the Invisible Man’s wife — Cecilia. Elisabeth Moss is in almost every single scene of the movie; plus, she’s the only actor in many of those scenes.…

Movie Review – Brahms: The Boy II
—
I really wanted to like this movie. I was excited to see it, but it let me down. I’m gonna start off with, who was in charge of casting? Katie Holmes and Owain Yeoman had zero chemistry. I didn’t buy they were a married couple in love with each other. Nope. That bothered me throughout…

Movie Review – The Lodge
—
I found this movie boring. It never reached the level I was expecting. Nothing stands out as appealing. The acting was passable at best. I can find way more things that annoyed me than things that entertained me. There is nothing special to see here. It was dreary, and the way they used the sound…

If anyone tried to make this movie perfectly loyal to the original story, no parent would dare let their young…

Movie Review – Carol of the Bells
Carol of the Bells is a lot like a Hallmark Christmas movie, and I don’t mean this in a good way. You could see the seams in the acting and directing transitions, and it didn’t come across as a polished story. That said, Andrea F. Friedman, the actress with Down’s Syndrome, stole the show…

Movie Review – Fantasy Island
—
Fantasy Island started off slow and became a fairly solid movie towards the last half. Early on I wasn’t bonding with the characters — it felt forced and really fake at first glance. But then they stepped up the game. Once we were thoroughly into the story, and we’d learned a thing or two about…
