Movie Review – Good Boys – Raunchy Laughs, but Big Plotholes
—
Good Boys was awkwardly funny. Like really funny. I was worried I was going to pee from laughing so hard, and I can’t RunPee during movies, since I have to get the Peetimes for the rest of you. There were moments I found myself chastising my inability to hold in my laughter. They pushed the…

Movie Review – Blinded by the Light
—
Rather than Blinded by the Light being a semi biographical movie about Bruce Springsteen, it was more a movie about race, struggle, bigotry, and cultural survival. But more than that, it was a movie about a father and son who could only hope to bridge the generation gap that threatened to tear the family apart.…

Movie Review – Where’d You Go, Bernadette
—
This is a crazy hard movie to give a rating to. I enjoyed it, but didn’t love it. I was engaged with the story from beginning to end, but wasn’t moved by the resolution. The characters were well defined and the actors did a great job — every one of them. Obviously, Cate Blanchett is…

Movie Review – The Farewell
—
I loved this movie. It was full of emotions and love and laughs; it really has a little bit of everything. Awkwafina is really proving herself as a very worthy actress. I’ve seen her in many different types of roles now and she has rocked everyone of them. I’m not usually a fan of movies…

Movie Review – The Angry Birds Movie 2
I’m not sure just who’s the target audience here. The kiddies will love the action and slap stick humor, sorta like the Looney Tunes cartoons of long ago, but that stuff never gets old. Does it? The adults who became addicted to this mindless little app will also flock (pun intended) to AB2. There’s plenty…

Movie Review – The Art of Racing in the Rain
The Art of Racing in the Rain is yet another animal flick to tug at your heart strings. Are you a dog lover? If you answer yes, then this movie will not only tug at your heart strings, but will rip them out of your chest and wrap them around your windpipe. One man in…

Movie Review – Stuber
—
After you watch Stuber, you’ll never look at your Uber driver the same way again. I’m a Uber consumer and could totally relate to this action comedy completely. Big burly LAPD Cop Vic Manning (Dave Bautista) has an unusual day after he has lasik surgery. Vic has been working on a drug case for a…

Movie Review – Yesterday
—
The only reason I didn’t give Yesterday an A+ is that, at least for now, I don’t think it’s as good as Love Actually — both written by Richard Curtis — and both are very similar. Yesterday checks all the boxes for a great film: it’s terribly well acted; the pacing rolls along with the…

Movie Review – Late Night
—
So, we have Emma Thompson, Mindy Kaling, and John Lithgow. It’s a recipe for a great movie. The writing was done perfectly by Mindy Kaling, never missing a beat when it comes to the one liners and caustic comebacks. I have to say that this amazing talent has a great future in Hollywood, and basically…

Movie Review – Toy Story 4
Vera and I saw the movie together and collaborated on the Peetimes. We agreed that Toy Story 4 deserves an A. It has everything you could want: fun action for the kids, plenty of humor, especially with the two new toys Bunny and Ducky — voiced by Jordan Peele and Keegan-Michael Key respectively — and…
