Movie Review – The Equalizer 2
I gave the first Equalizer movie an A+, so this one had a tough act to follow. Plus, I just rewatched the first movie last night before seeing EQ2, so it’s fresh in my mind. EQ2 is a very good movie, but not as good as the first. The action is about as good, with the…

Movie Review – Skyscraper
Not even duct tape could hold together this mess of a movie. I’m willing to overlook a lot of unrealistic stuff in order to enjoy a good Dwayne Johnson movie, but this one just doesn’t offer enough of a payoff to warrant the price of a movie ticket. Or even just two hours of your…

Movie Review – Ant-Man and the Wasp
When leaving the theater my overall feeling was that I liked the movie — I gave it an 8.8/10 in the RunPee User Poll — but the more I think about it, the less I like it. What I liked The movie had plenty of funny moments and the action was decent. Actually, the action…

Movie Rewatch Review – Jurassic Park III
I finally made the effort to rewatch Jurassic Park III – something always came up to distract me, and I’m easily distracted if I don’t want to see the movie in question. But I’m glad I did it: the movie isn’t so bad once you’re aware of the retched parts. It’s like rewatching Star Wars:…

Movie Review – The First Purge
—
The First Purge was not what I was expecting. I’ll be honest and say that the last two really didn’t appeal to me. Luckily, they took a different approach on this one and it worked much better. I don’t want to give anything away by explaining how they tied the movies together, but I will say…

Movie Review – Hotel Transylvania 3: Summer Vacation – As Fun as a Real Vacation Kids and Adults Alike
Hotel Transylvania 3 is just as entertaining as both HT2 and HT1 were. The plot is cute: bringing the great-great granddaughter of Van Helsin and Dracula, together in a possible relationship. I saw this movie with my own 5 year-old great granddaughter and she loved it, as did the rest of the young audience. The level of humor…

Movie Review – Uncle Drew
—
Uncle Drew was surprisingly charming. I was ready for a slapstick basketball movie but was surprised with a movie that has substance. There are a lot of touching moments that make you smile with warmth, and also moments that made the crowd slap their sides — they were laughing that hard. It’s got a little…

Movie Review – Sicario 2: Soldado
—
I watched the first Sicario (for the first time) the night before the sequel came out, so I have a fresh perspective on comparing them. Simply put, the sequel isn’t quite as good as the original. While the first Sicario is a really good movie, it isn’t without its flaws. Nevertheless, I would give it at least…
