Movie Review – Charlie’s Angels
—
Charlie’s Angels wasn’t that bad. I’ve never been a fan of the franchise, but I personally liked this one the best. Kristen Stewart was pretty darn good. Normally all I see is Bella Swan, but not once during this did I see her that way. She really had a spark to her. The plot was…

RunPee Sis’s Movie Review – Jojo Rabbit
—
JoJo Rabbit shocked me. I hadn’t heard a peep about it, knew nothing going into it…and walked out in love with what I had just seen. This movie was a work of art. Hollywood produces some great flicks to amuse us, and some not so great ones, ones where people can just get paid. JoJo…

Spoiler-iffic Review of Terminator – Dark Fate
Please don’t read this review if you haven’t seen Terminator: Dark Fate yet. You’ve now been warned. So, I did a story where I neatly ranked every Terminator film from 1984 through 2015, and they slot themselves perfectly by year. As in the first being the best, T2 coming close on its heels…and then each…

Movie Review – The Good Liar
—
Mirren and McKellen are the Crown Jewels of British drama. Seeing them together is a treat which I can’t believe has been so long coming. Then there is Russell Tovey, who has got hours of TV screen time racked up on this side of the pond and should be in a lot more films as…

Frozen Adventures You May Have Missed
Disney has finally given in to the demands of countless children, and made a sequel to their hit film Frozen. I already have my tickets and will be seeing it opening weekend with my girlfriend, the world’s biggest Olaf fan. (No, seriously. I can’t sleep at night anymore because of all the stuffed snowmen staring…

Movie Review – Playing with Fire
I give high marks to this movie for the recognition it gives to the first responders out there risking their lives for us. And to show our younger generation that not all heroes wear spandex. Playing with Fire itself is a decent movie. I think the target audience is the kiddies between six and twelve…

Golden Man’s Movie Review – Jojo Rabbit
Although I’m a fan of director Taika Waititi, the first trailer for Jojo Rabbit didn’t inspire much confidence. The scene of an imaginary Hitler comforting a ten-year-old boy fell pretty flat. Waititi isn’t the first person to mine World War II for laughs. Charlie Chaplin, Mel Brooks, and the TV show Hogan’s Heroes have made…

Movie Review – Midway
—
Sorry to say: this movie doesn’t live up to the true events it attempts to depict. Unless you feel you must see the battle events on the big screen, this movie is better suited to DVD/streaming…in 2 or 3 months when it’s available. To be sure, there’s plenty of explosions, bombs dropping, explosions, aerial dog…

Movie Review – Last Christmas
—
This movie caters to a particular audience because it’s almost a textbook for its genre — rom-com. If you enjoy this genre, this movie will press all your buttons. By “textbook,” I don’t mean this is a dull movie. On the contrary, it’s packed with sarcastic British humor. You will laugh at least once. I…

Movie Review – The Aeronauts
—
This was a nice way to spend an hour and (nearly) three quarters. Lots of lovely visuals, chemistry between the cast, and a few thrills thrown in for good measure. I’m not sure how much of the visuals are CGI, but a good proportion of them are. Nothing in London is taller than the Elizabeth…
