Movie Review – Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker
Cards on the table. I went into this film pretty sure I was going to enjoy it. I remember going to see “Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope” (or just “Star Wars” as it was back then!) as a student back in 1977. Here I am, retired, going to see the final episode…

Movie Review – Jumanji: The Next Level
So here we go again! If you saw Jumanji: Welcome To The Jungle you’ll know what to expect: action, thrills, and humour in abundance, but with enough tweaks to make things feel fresh. If you’ve seen the trailers and, to be honest, they’ve been difficult not to see then you’ll know the premise is the…

Movie Review – Playmobil: The Movie
I’m thinking the little tykes from ages 2 to 6 will enjoy this movie. My great granddaughter, age 6, has been an avid watcher of the Playmobil videos on YouTube for several years. I honestly think children older than 7 or 8 will be bored with this simple animated film. I found the movie irritating,…

Movie Review – Frozen 2
Obviously, I’m not grading this movie based on how well I personally enjoyed it. I, a 52 year old man, live in a galaxy far, far, away from the target audience of pre-teen girls. I’m confident that the aforementioned young girls will be delighted with every moment of the movie. In particular, I think my…

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…

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…

Movie Review – Arctic Dogs
—
I just saw a headline that questioned if a child under five should see Arctic Dogs, due to rude humor and lots of action. My question is; would children over five want to see this film? It’s not a boring movie by any means. I truly enjoyed it, but it seems that the generation, of…

Official Movie Review – Terminator: Dark Fate
All things considered, I’d say Terminator: Dark Fate is a worthy successor to the 1991 Terminator 2. After 28 years, 3 other Terminator movies — plus a TV show — it’s hard to think of Dark Fate as the 3rd movie in a trilogy, but that’s where it belongs. Dark Fate had the potential to…

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!…
