Movie Review – 1917
—
I usually don’t watch war films, but I was so intrigued by the filming style that I decided to give 1917 a shot. I’m really glad that I did. I think movies these days add a lot of unnecessary dialogue and scenes to add drama. However, this movie did very little that took away from…

RunPee – Our 2109 Movie Review Rankings (and who was stuck with the worst films!)
$2,797,800,564 world wide. You can buy a lot of Infinity Peecoins with that. 2019 closed out a decade of movies, not so much with a bang, but with a snap. Avengers: Endgame was a tour de force that culminated a decade defined, both culturally and monetarily, by the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). Between 2010 and 2019…

Movie Review – Uncut Gems
—
This is one of those movies that is impossible to grade. That’s because on the one hand, the acting — especially by Adam Sandler — was terrific. And honestly, even though Kevin Garnett played himself, he still did a fantastic job with the nuances. Hat’s off to him. I’d love to see him get a…

The 6 Most Epic Lightsaber Fights in Star Wars (plus 3 that didn’t make the cut)
So many Star Wars movies. So many lightsaber and “lightsaber-adjacent” fight scenes over 42 years. Which saber duels are the best, the most visually stunning, or emotionally moving? I don’t know much about sword technique (<—- we wrote about that here) beyond endlessly watching Lord of the Rings or Xena: Warrior Princess, but I know…

The Force is dead. Long live the Force.
JJ Abrams and Lucas killed the Force by boxing it into their preconceived needs to tell a story they wanted to tell instead of letting the story tell itself.

Movie Review – Star Wars – Rise of Skywalker (spoiler free)
So. It’s done. After 42 years of buildup, the Star Wars Skywalker saga is over. I liked it! But I didn’t LOVE it. Which is okay, as all I wanted for Christmas was for Rise of Skywalker to not suck. So I can happily say that Director JJ Abrams did his best to undo the…

Movie Review – Bombshell
Bombshell was full of great acting. Every single actor/actress in this movie gave it their all. It was a star studded performance. I really enjoyed the direction the movie took. You are watching this basically through the eyes of three very strong women. Theron, Kidman and Robbie each nailed their characters. Their presence wasn’t only…

Movie Review – Cats
—
I must admit, I was a little hesitant about seeing this movie, because the trailer was not that enticing, given the over-dramatic look of the cats’ upgraded appearance. I am a huge Cats on broadway fan — so because I’m loyal, I figured I would give it a try. If you’ve never seen the broadway…
