Movie Review – Kung Fu Panda 4
—
Normally I would have assigned my sister to see this movie and get the Peetimes, but my wife wanted to see it so off we went. I don’t think I’ve seen a Kung Fu Panda since the first one came out and I wasn’t really looking forward to this. At least it was a short movie. But,…

Movie Review – Dune: Part Two
—
I have read all of Frank Herbert’s DUNE books many times, and a few that were written by his son Brian. I can unequivocally say that the DUNE is my favorite science fiction series. The depth of the universe that Herbert creates is rivaled only by Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings. This is why it…

Movie Review – Ordinary Angels
—
A woman named Sharon Stevens made it her goal to see a family through hard times while battling her own problems. She really did perform a miracle while her life was upside down. She didn’t let her problems get in the way of making sure Michelle Schmitt, This was an incredibly well done movie that had…

Movie Review – Drive-Away Dolls
—
Drive Away Dolls feels like a lesbian version of Pulp Fiction that was written by Wes Anderson. I think that’s a good thing, but maybe it’s a little too much of a good thing. Since my first priority while watching a movie is to get good Peetimes I always make sure I know how long the movie…

Movie Review – Madame Web
—
Obviously, no one involved with making this movie can see into the future. If they could, they wouldn’t have made this movie. It would have been more fitting to make this an animated movie aimed toward eight-year-olds. Sorry, not to insult eight-year-olds, but this is the level of maturity this movie contains. Here’s an example…

Movie Review – Bob Marley: One Love
—
This movie offers a glimpse into the life and legacy of the iconic reggae legend Bob Marley. I’m a casual fan – meaning I like his music but I rarely remember to look his music up in my leisure time – so it was nice to know a little more about where he gets his…

Movie Review – Lisa Frankenstein
—
Lisa Frankenstein was a delightfully fun movie. One word keeps coming to mind, whimsical. From the sets, to the costumes, right down to the acting. It was extraordinarily well put together. Kathryn Newton (Lisa) did a fantastic job. She was just as much fun to watch as the movie was. I loved the way she…

Movie Review – The Jungle Bunch 2: World Tour
—
Jungle Bunch: Operation Meltdown was a cute film but it didn’t quite grab me or my granddaughter. I think the age group that would best enjoy this film is around 6-7 years old. Any younger and they wouldn’t understand and any older, they would be bored. I didn’t realize there was a previous one or that it’s…

Movie Review – Argylle
I must admit that I had high hopes going into this movie. The first Kingsmen movie was fantastic, and I was hoping that this movie would recapture that magic. Sadly, no. Not even close. The first half of the movie held my attention. I thought it was going somewhere interesting. I saw the twist coming, but the execution…

Movie Review – Maestro
—
“I love music so much that it keeps me glued to life,” Leonard Bernstein (Lenny), world-renowned composer, asserts emphatically. This film pays homage to his life, but equally, highlights the blemishes, foibles, and struggles which were inherent in it. I will try to keep this review essentially “spoiler-free” such that you can appreciate the movie…
