Movie Review – Happy Death Day 2U – Still Fun, but more Sci-Fi than Horror
It’s interesting to watch a sequel film that genre-hoppingly morphs from one thing to another. I’m not a horror fan, but genuinely loved Happy Death Day 1, probably because it had an emphasis on comedy, and the actual scares were light. It was creepy still, with the “uncanny valley” baby mask — shudders —…

Main Song from A Star Is Born – Video and Lyrics from Shallow – by Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper
One of the top movie hits from 2018 is A Star is Born, starring Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper, and their best film song is Shallow, a duet that slays everyone who hears it. It’s almost a perfect song, and it won the awards to prove it: Golden Globe Award for Best Original Song Grammy…

Are the Four Lego Movies Sequels or Prequel Films?
As an adult, I’m surprised at how fun these Lego movies are. Are Legos considered kids’ toys? Or are Legos nostalgic and expensive boxed kits for adults who refuse grow up? Let’s take a look at how each Lego movie fits into the series so far. They all have adult humor mixed in with exciting…

Movie Review – The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part
What a charming, amusing, engaging, but ultimately fluffy bit of fun The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part is. It’s right up there with the enjoyment level of the original Lego film and The Lego Batman Movie, although perhaps a little less sensibly told, narratively, than either. The story rambles all over the place, with…

Movie Review – Cold Pursuit – Liam Neeson Does Action Right
—
If you like the Coen Brothers, you’ll love Cold Pursuit. This movie runs circles around Liam’s other ‘particular set of skills’ flicks. The well-placed humor that you usually see in the Coen films is refreshing, and sometimes really funny. Sure, we get plenty of head banging “shooting at point blank range” bloody snow scenes to…

Lego Movie 2 Holiday Short – Christmas is Awesome
I somehow missed this little video treat over the holidays, and maybe you did too. On the eve of The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part, it’s worth taking a peek at this short Christmas one-off taking place in the apocalyptic ruins of Bricksburg and the Lego Movie crew (including Chris Pratt, Elizabeth Banks, and…

Chris Pratt and the Lego Cast go to Space Camp
This adorable spoof of a reality show about which Lego actor gets to become a space-person is really cute/interesting/funny. Something we at RunPee find continually amusing is how RunPee Dan used to work at Space Camp, and RunPee Jilly worked at Astro Camp, both in the days of our youth. Sometimes geekland is a small…

Happy Death Day – Every “Day” We Watch, and Rewatch (Spoilers)
In the movie Happy Death Day, Tree is murdered on her birthday. Instead of dying, she wakes up and has to relive the day all over again. Tree relives the same day (and gets murdered) seventeen times. (We only see eleven of the murders because a montage is used to compress time. We only get…

Movie Review – The Kid Who Would Be King is Charming and Sweet
This character driven movie was about a half hour too long, and that’s the only negative thing I have to say about The Boy Who Would Be King. I enjoyed this movie a lot. It has all the ingredients needed to keep the audience of children entertained: out of control roots, things on fire,…

Movie Review – Serenity
—
Serenity is one of those movies that you’ll either love, or really hate, or maybe a little bit of both. Not everyone will get this movie, so I’ll follow that statement up with this: you need to pay attention to the screen. There are visual clues and verbal clues, but they all have a…
