Movie Review – Gotti
—
This movie was a muddled mess. This biographic piece couldn’t quite pick up steam or really even figure out what it wanted to be. I was waiting for the big moment but there was none. It was just two hours of a lot of names thrown at you, never fully explaining anything. On a positive…

Movie review: Game Night
—
We have a twofer review for you for Game Night! RunPee Jilly has her review first, and RunPee Niece has her review below. Enjoy!

As someone with Autism myself, I’m…

Movie Review – 22 Jump Street
I found a lot to love and a lot to dislike about this sequel. What’s to love? Well, it’s still really funny. There are some laugh out loud moments and then there are some throw your head back and cackle moments. Who doesn’t love that? On the flip side, there were some awkward moments that…
