Movie Review – The Equalizer 3
—
I still think the first Equalizer movie with Denzel Washington was the best, but this is certainly a worthy addition. What I’m most pleased with is that the writers/directors didn’t feel the need to continuously one-up themselves in the sequels. Ultimately, these movies aren’t so much about the action as the motivation behind the action. And to…

Movie Review – Fast X
—
Grading a movie like Fast X is a challenge. What do I grade it against? Other Fast and Furious movies? Other action movies, or holistically against all movies? I could try to grade Fast X with one of those approaches or a combination of them, but generally, I prefer to grade a movie against the best possible version of itself. Movies…

Movie Review – Guy Ritchie’s The Covenant
I’m finding a hard time thinking of anything positive to say about this movie, with the exception of the acting. That’s where this movie shines. I’m sure Jake Gyllenhaal will get heaps of praise, as he deserves, for his performance as Sergeant John Kinley. But, I think Dar Salim—as Ahmed, the interpreter—had the harder role…

Movie Review – John Wick: Chapter 4
—
What a ride. Not just this movie, but the whole John Wick franchise. If this be the end, it was a mighty fine ending. I’m impressed by so many things. Where to start? Screenplay/dialog It all starts with the screenplay. literally. Before anyone can do anything a story has to be written. The dialogue was really well…

Movie Review – Marlowe
—
If ‘Marlowe’ were shown in the 1930s or 40s it would keep the theaters packed for weeks. That’s how well Neil Jordan pulled off this film noir movie. The pacing was spot-on for a movie of this kind, and the directing was pretty good. The writing stayed true to the film noir feel, using well-worn…
