Movie Review – Doctor Sleep
—
I’ll admit to being a bit dubious about coming to see this. Be honest… Did you think The Shining needed a sequel? Or worse still, something that just seemed to be using the name to attract bums on seats? In my defense, I know nothing about the alternative comic book universes so ‘Joker’ may be…

Movie Review – Countdown
—
Countdown was a fun little flick. I enjoyed it — there were some scare moments balanced with just enough humor to add to its overall balance. In today’s world, we are all attached to our phones. They’ve become an extension of our hands. In Countdown, they become your own personal countdown to death. Yes,…

Movie Review – The Lighthouse
It’s no secret I have issues with A24 productions. I have seen them all. I go in with an open mind — and every time but twice I’ve hated them. Spring Breakers and Tusk get a free pass; those entertained me. When I saw the trailers for The Lighthouse, I was excited. It looked…

Movie Review – Zombieland: Double Tap
Zombieland: Double Tap wasn’t great, but it was better than I expected and certainly satisfying. I’m happy to say that Double Tap avoids the typical disappointment from sequels that were added on to a successful movie as a money grab. #ZL2 has the same charm and wit as the original. I’m not saying it was…

Movie Review – It Chapter Two
I’ve got so much to say about It Chapter Two, I’m not usually one for long reviews, but this one calls for it. Here we go… Let’s start off on a positive note. The beginning absolutely captivated me. I loved how each of the Losers were contacted and asked to come back to Derry.…

Movie Review – Don’t Let Go
—
My personal opinion: I loved it. The movie starts off fast and keeps gaining momentum, hurtling us toward an incredible ending. It’s action packed. The story was interesting and the acting was superb. I don’t know why so many people are trashing it. I’ve read about thirty reviews talking about how this story has been…

Movie Review – Ready or Not
—
Ready Or Not, here I come with my review. This was an awesome movie. I had so much fun watching it, just like playing hide and seek when I was a kid…kind of…we didn’t have all the cool weapons and no one ever died. I loved the originality. I’m trying to think of another movie…

Movie Review – 47 Meters Down: Uncaged
—
I watched a lot of shark movies recently to get excited for 47 Meters Down 2. Almost all of them were a good time. Plus, I really liked the original 47 Meters Down. But this sequel is dreadful. I can’t even begin to tell you just how bad this movie is. Basically, the undersea premise…

Movie Review – Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark
—
Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark thoroughly entertained my 6 year old granddaughter. I found myself slightly bored. For starters, I was expecting a more mature horror movie based on the previews I saw. I didn’t realize that it was from a series of books written in the 1980’s. I wish I would have…

Movie Review – Crawl
—
Due to a terrible mistake made by myself on opening night, I had to go back today and watch Crawl all over again. It didn’t get any better the second time around. I have lived in Florida for a number of years now and can empathize with the two characters in this movie. Yes, hurricanes…
