Movie Review – The Current War
Unless there’s some compelling reason you have for seeing this movie in the theater, I think it would make an excellent movie night at home when it’s streaming online, or on DVD. The only negative thing I have to say about this movie is that the pacing goes way too fast. The scenes cut back…

Movie Review by RunPee Rob – Terminator: Dark Fate
I went into this film with mixed feelings. The original landed in the mid 80s with barely a ripple. A relatively small budget film by a new director, with not a well known cast. But it took off. The early 90s saw T2 launched with a lot of ballyhoo and fuss — and it worked!…

In Defense of Terminator 3
Terminator: Dark Fate opens this week. It’s the sixth movie in the Terminator franchise. However, it is the official sequel to Terminator 2: Judgment Day…which basically invalidates Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines, one of my favorite entries in the entire franchise. Billy Crystal once joked that Arnold Schwarzenegger signed on to make Terminator 3…

Movie Review – Lucy in the Sky
This was a pretty depressing movie. I left the theater and was so sad about so many things. It’s not a fun story and certainly not an uplifting one either. I’m one of the movie goers that like to have fun and be carried away into a riveting or even just plain silly story. What…

Movie Review – Maleficent: Mistress of Evil
There really isn’t a lot to say about this Maleficent sequel. It’s gorgeous to look at. If you like fantasy movies, you’ll have a great time. Angelina Jolie brings back that good/evil vibe she did so well in the original. She also doesn’t look a day older from way back when, so I assume there…

Movie Review – Zombieland: Double Tap
Zombieland: Double Tap wasn’t great, but it was better than I expected and certainly satisfying. I’m happy to say that Double Tap avoids the typical disappointment from sequels that were added on to a successful movie as a money grab. #ZL2 has the same charm and wit as the original. I’m not saying it was…

Movie Review – Jexi
—
Jexi had me laughing from the beginning and it really never stopped. I went to see this movie hoping to take a break from reality and just laugh for a while. I got what I wanted. This movie isn’t an award-winner, but it wasn’t made to be. This was made for pure entertainment through outrageously…

Movie Review – Gemini Man
—
Nothing amazing, nothing awful. This is a stylish little film where every actor gives it their all and makes a nice 2 hour action excursion. Here’s a Pro-Tip for audiences: wait for this to come out on streaming. While old and young Will Smith both look great ( I suspect they aged up one…

Movie Review – The Addams Family
—
Most of my followers know that when reviewing an animated movie, I rate it according to the response of the target audience. Having taken my six year old great granddaughter to see The Addams Family tonight, I can report that I’ve reached out to the target audience, and she reported to me that it deserves…

Movie Review – Judy
I was sitting in the theater watching Judy when I realized I’m the target audience. I grew up idolizing this gifted woman and was well aware of her continuous struggles to rid herself of the demons that seemed to dictate her life. So I feel most qualified to review this movie. When you see Renee…
