Virgin Review – Legend of Tarzan
I thoroughly enjoyed this somewhat lightweight movie. It was a different take on the Tarzan story; a more adult version. Clearly, it was filmed on location, and the African settings were breathtaking. I’m going to have to make a trip to the Congo…and I’d be honored to assume a submissive pose to a gorilla troop (heads…

Prettiest Live Action Movies
Here’s a fun topic, a list of the “prettiest” ever live action movies. They have to be gorgeous on their own merits, plot aside. I’m looking for outstanding visuals. [pullquote]What qualifies as pretty? Lots of color, slick visual or computer generated effects that stand up through time, creative set-pieces, stylish direction, and lavish location scenery.[/pullquote]…

Movie Review – Solo: A Star Wars Story
I’m certainly not disappointed. I think this one was better than the other new Star Wars movies, except for Rogue One. I’m impressed that they managed to hit all of the important back story elements to Han’s character, without it feeling forced or cheesy. My only complaint is that the story dragged on a bit,…

Movie Review – Jumanji 2: Welcome to the Jungle
This sequel version of Jumanji is adorable and funny. Predictable, yes, but the story is based on a video game plot, so it’s kind of a baked-in thing. It’s also bit too pat in how each teenage character gets the perfect game avatar to grow as a person, but this is yet another thing that…

Movie Review – Early Man
—
I grew up watching The Gumby Show and Davey And Goliath, as did my children, so I’ve watched a lot of stop motion pictures. When Nick Park’s Wallace And Gromit began back in the 90’s, I was thrilled. So yes, I’m a fan of stop motion and Nick Park. If you’re also a fan of…

Movie Review – Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets
—
This is a hard one to rate. It was super duper amazingly gorgeous. A+ visuals, almost Avatar-levels of creative beauty…it was definitely above the best of Guardians of the Galaxy’s fantastical “Knowwhere” and “Ego” scenes (stuff I generally tout as the prettiest sci-fi scenes in recent cinema). However, Valererian had a boring, predictable, throwaway plot…

Movie Review – Before I Fall
—
Before I saw this movie, I had geared myself up for a saccharine chick flick. However, instead I saw a well written, well directed, and well acted movie. I wholeheartedly recommend this movie for all age groups. Grade: A About The Peetimes: Before I Fall is a nicely paced movie, allowing for two good Peetimes…
