Movie Review – Schindler’s List
—
I honestly don’t know how to review this movie; everything that could be said has been said. I have nothing new to add nor take away. So, I’ll just express my feelings I had after watching this masterpiece. I watched Schindler’s List a few years after it came out, and some studio executive thought it…

Movie Review – Aquaman
What does DC have to do to shake off the feeling that it’s the poor man’s Marvel? For starters: make better movies. I’m not saying Aquaman is bad. Far from it. It’s a decent movie despite being as predictable as it is visually appealing. But it’s no better than the first Thor movie. Which would…

Virgin Movie Review – Planet of the Apes (2001)
Who knew Tim Burton could direct a grand scale epic adventure? I always thought his specialty was weirdos doing wacky things. But I was surprised and pleased with how much I enjoyed this 2001 version of Planet of the Apes, especially since I’m not impressed with the more recent trilogy. I also didn’t realize Mark…

Movie Review – The Possession of Hannah Grace
—
Hollywood pulled off another movie that actually had me a little bit afraid. I’ll say I was very tense during some scenes. That sure doesn’t happen very often anymore. They did an incredible job of setting the tone of this horror flick. The ambiance was perfect; it kept you on the edge of your seat,…

Movie Review – Ralph Breaks the Internet
—
I didn’t see the first Ralph movie, but it turns out that doesn’t matter. Everything interesting is explained, and the fun begins immediately. I’ll say, right off the bat, that this movie is worth seeing on the big screen, although I look forward to having this on DVD so I can start and stop…

Movie Review – Green Book (It will touch your heart)
—
Green Book was amazing! Everything about this movie was awesome. The acting, the story, the conclusion, it all had me seeing stars. I’ve not enjoyed a movie this much in a very long time. Every person in America needs to see this movie. It simply touched my heart in a way that movies haven’t…

Movie Review – The Front Runner
—
I’m having a difficult time reviewing this movie. When I asked myself if I liked it, I had no answer. It bored me; it made me despise politicians even more, and now I think there is a lot of shadiness in journalism. Thanks, Hollywood. This movie is all about people doing whatever they want,…

Movie Review – Creed II
I really enjoyed this movie. I had very high expectations and lots of excitement when I walked into the theater, and I think this movie delivered on all of those expectations. I think this movie kept a lot of new fans from Creed I, but also tapped into the older fan-base from Rocky IV. This movie…
