Movie Review – Isle of Dogs
Do see Isle of Dogs if it comes anywhere near your theater. It’s creative and quirky, with a great voiceover cast of big stars…and this is honestly something I haven’t seen before. Everyone in the production really pulled out a stylish little film. There are moments in this stop-animation tale that are sort of strange…

Movie Review: Rampage

Bacon cheese burgers. When you see it on the menu you know you want it. But you also know you shouldn’t have it. You scan the menu. Salad? Yeah, right. Pasta dish? Ummmm, maybe. But you keep coming back to that BCB. You’re still not decided when the waiter asks for your order, but your…

Movie review: The Miracle Season
—
I am quite obviously not the target audience for this movie: 50 year old male. However, even I was moved by the story. No one is going to win an award for creating, or performing, in this movie, but that doesn’t mean that they didn’t do their jobs. I felt like all of the actors…

Movie review: Chappaquiddick
—
I wholeheartedly recommend this movie to anyone who remembers this tragic event that dominated the news for months. Even though we all know the outcome of tragedy, what we are not privy to is how the outcome was reached. I appreciate the fact that writers, Andrew Logan and Taylor Allen, resisted the temptation to “Hollywood…

Movie review: Blockers
—
This is a typical popcorn comedy. If you enjoyed American Pie you will probably enjoy this one. It has fulfilled its purpose to make the audience laugh quite often. The plot is a cliche but really doesn’t matter that much to this movie. The acting is standard with the adults but impressive with the kids. I…

Movie Review – A Quiet Place (Spoiler-free)
It is truly amazing this movie is able to pack so much into so little. It’s a short movie, only 1:23 not counting the credits, and yet it feels like two hours. And there’s barely enough dialog to fill a sheet of paper: it feels like we know every character’s life stories. Right out of…

Movie Review -Ready Player One
Ready Player One: a likable, but not lovable movie. [pullquote]The plot is about as predictable as a row of Space Invaders.[/pullquote] I think the writers figured the target audience (teenagers) aren’t mature enough to notice the clichés and the older crowd would be placated with the numerous 80’s pop culture references. (OMG, that’s me. I’m the older crowd! When…

Movie review: Sherlock Gnomes
—
Let’s start off by saying this — the trailers I saw made this movie look like it was going to be hilarious. I was bit by the deceiving trailer bug again. Yeah, there were funny parts, but not as many as I was expecting. I paid attention to the adults and the children in the…

Movie Review – Pacific Rim: Uprising
I loved the first Pacific Rim. (PR1) Okay, to be honest, I wasn’t crazy about it right off the bat, but it did grow on me. I’ve probably rewatched it a dozen times, here and there, over the years. It’s a great movie to have on in the background while working. Obviously, I was really…
