Movie Review – Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings
TL;DR Shang Chi was enjoyable, but not great. Visually appealing, whimsical, and has plenty of humor without being forced. For me, the most sensible way to grade an MCU movie is against the other MCU movies. Generally speaking, Shang Chi falls in the middle third for me. Not the cream of the MCU crop, but…

Movie Review – The Green Knight
The Green Knight is thick with symbolism but thin on understanding. At least that’s how I see it because I have no clue what I’m supposed to get out of it. I wish Joseph Campbell was around to review this movie and critique the symbolism. If the director were to release an annotated version of…

Movie Review – Snake Eyes
The first third of Snake Eyes had the potential to be a mediocre movie. But in the middle third, it went downhill quickly. There was hope that the action-packed final third would make up for it, but no. It was even worse. Any good action shots were in the movie trailer, which is usually a…

Movie Review – Space Jam: A New Legacy
Space Jam: A New Legacy is exactly as cheesy as you might expect; but it also pokes fun of itself, and LeBron, in a really charming way. LeBron is… Well he’s LeBron. There weren’t any cringe-worthy moments you might expect from a superstar athlete trying to crossover into acting. Crossover, see what I did there?…

Is Star Trek V: The Final Frontier the worst Trek movie?
TL;DR — I remembered The Final Frontier as terrible back in 1989 (and the plot/climax really is), but to my surprise it has a lot of lovely moments, decent humor, and good characterizations between the Big Three. It had its heart in the right place. The actors went all in, and the topic itself, if…

Classic Movie Review – The Milagro Beanfield War
The Milagro Beanfield War is a movie everyone should see to be delighted, laugh a lot, cry a little, and have a two hour cinematic fiesta. It’s chock full of chemistry between almost everyone, in a cast that encompasses an entire town, from children to the elderly. In fact, it’s the elders who steal the…

Movie Review – Mortal Kombat
I used to play MK back in the 90s, but haven’t played it since and haven’t kept up with the mythology built around it. My wife has never played the video game and was confused by the plot and asked many questions. I told her she was overthinking it. There’s good guys and bad guys…
