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 – Jexi
—
Jexi had me laughing from the beginning and it really never stopped. I went to see this movie hoping to take a break from reality and just laugh for a while. I got what I wanted. This movie isn’t an award-winner, but it wasn’t made to be. This was made for pure entertainment through outrageously…

Movie Review – Gemini Man
—
Nothing amazing, nothing awful. This is a stylish little film where every actor gives it their all and makes a nice 2 hour action excursion. Here’s a Pro-Tip for audiences: wait for this to come out on streaming. While old and young Will Smith both look great ( I suspect they aged up one…

Movie Review – The Addams Family
—
Most of my followers know that when reviewing an animated movie, I rate it according to the response of the target audience. Having taken my six year old great granddaughter to see The Addams Family tonight, I can report that I’ve reached out to the target audience, and she reported to me that it deserves…

Movie Review – Judy
I was sitting in the theater watching Judy when I realized I’m the target audience. I grew up idolizing this gifted woman and was well aware of her continuous struggles to rid herself of the demons that seemed to dictate her life. So I feel most qualified to review this movie. When you see Renee…

Movie Review – Joker
—
I have a feeling a lot of people will really like this Joker movie. Personally, I don’t understand how this film can even come close to the MCU and their best films. It’s not funny at all, like EVER, and doesn’t involve any of the Justice League members. I have to admit that we’ve had…

Movie Review – Brittany Runs a Marathon
—
When I walked into the theater, I was expecting a trite piece of slapstick humor about some girl in NYC who just can’t seem to get her life in order, but still manages to find everlasting love. The previous sentence describes dozens, upon dozens, of previous movies that have come and gone without so much…

First View Movie Review – The Princess and the Frog
—
The Princess and the Frog is a suitably good and modern take on the “Princess” theme, with a jazzy little soundtrack and some true comedic moments. But is it moving? Inspiring? Maybe. Tiana, the Princess in question, is a good role model, with a solid work ethic. Which makes me think…Tiana has a job.…

Movie Review – Abominable
Well, here I sit at my computer, absolutely gritting my teeth….again. Here at RunPee, I am the animated film expert. I can qualify that statement by telling you I’ve been watching animated films for more than half a century. I kinda know what kids like and don’t like. Abominable is a kid’s movie. It’s…

Movie Review – Ad Astra
This is a very intense and thought provoking movie. I can’t write the review today, but I’ll give it a B grade for now. I saw in in IMAX, which I recommend for the best “space” experience, and for the constant extreme closeups on Brad Pitt’s face. Suffice to say for now the film…
