Rumors: will Tom Hardy be the next Bond?
—
The news is out! Well… sort of. A little known Star Trek themed blog called The Vulcan Reporter scooped the rest of the world by announcing on 18th September that the next actor to play James Bond would be Tom Hardy. Now I’m not going to use phrases such as “total fiction”, “definitely made up”, or…

Movie Review – Honest Thief
I can’t recommend seeing Honest Thief; not even on DVD/streaming someday; it offers nothing to the genre worth sitting through. The story is painfully predictable. The characters are cardboard. The acting is uninspired. I can’t fault the actors. There’s not much they could do with this plot and dialog. Spoilers ahead: Here’s an example of…

Indie Documentary Review – J.R. ‘Bob’ Dobbs and the Church of the SubGenius
First glance at J.R. ‘Bob’ Dobbs and the Church of the SubGenius and I thought I was in for a satirical comedy at the expense of the multifarious religious groups that proliferate in the USA. Then I thought it was going to be a documentary about one of those weird denominations and its congregation. Turns out that J.R.…

Indie Movie Review – Housesitter: The Night They Saved Siegfried’s Brain
—
Housesitter: The Night They Saved Siegfried’s Brain started off intriguing me before I even started watching it. With a screener link usually comes some supporting info, stills, posters, blurb, etc. and it sounded interesting. Of course it does, I hear you say, that’s why they send it. But hear me out… Housesitter: The Night They Saved…

Indie Movie Review – The Devil To Pay
The Devil To Pay took me by surprise! When I was told about the screener it came with an editor’s note saying… “A nice thriller for you. I love these ‘in the woods’ movies.”…so I had started to make up my mind what I was about to see and, if I’m honest, “psycho with an…

Movie Review – The Broken Hearts Gallery
—
The Broken Hearts Gallery deserves an A+ for sure. This was a movie that changed the minds of two very stubborn people. When I read up on the movie, I thought to myself that this one was gonna be boring. I labeled it as work-only, not for enjoyment. My husband is a truck driver and…

Some are well done in certain ways and not so much in others; well shot but badly acted, good story but poor dialogue, and various…
