Movie Review – 10 Cloverfield Lane
10 Cloverfield Lane is an excellent movie. The only reason I’m not giving it an A is that it isn’t the kind of movie I’d want to see again. The main thing that makes the movie enjoyable is that you don’t know where it’s going. That said, I can’t say Cloverfield Lane is like “movie…

Movie Review – Arrival
—
I think Arrival is the best science fiction movie in years. Personally, I would have to go back to Edge of Tomorrow to find one almost as good. Not that these two movies are remotely alike. Arrival is more related to Contact — with Jodi Foster. The pacing and twists of the movie strongly resembles a…

Movie Review – The Accountant
—
Trigger Warning: Bright flashing lights and loud music in certain sections, which could be a trigger if you’re overly sensitive to stimuli. Guns, murder and blood, as one would expect in an assassin-type thriller. Ben Affleck, as the titular accountant, does a nice job portraying someone with high-functioning Autism. As someone with Autism myself, I’m…

Movie Review – Suicide Squad
—
I have to admit it, I was hoping Suicide Squad would be the Guardians of the Galaxy of the DC universe. It didn’t come close. My wife and I talked about it, and if I had to compare it to another comic movie, I’d say it was about as good as the Thor movies. Margot…

Movie Review – Ghostbusters (2016 reboot)
—
The movie is a reboot of the Ghostbusters story. The events of the first movie (we will not speak of GB2) are not recognized. However, there are a plethora of cameos. Not all of the original cast make cameos, but many do, and those moments are the best parts of the movie. Take those cameos…

Movie Review – Star Trek Beyond
I’m a big ST fan. I’ve watched all the TV series and all the movies. So I’m going to come at this review as a fan, not a casual moviegoer. All of three Abrams’ Star Trek movies have been well received by the critics and audience, so we can at least say that we’ve…

Movie Review – The Legend of Tarzan
Going in, I expected this move to be horrible – it wasn’t – but I’m not saying it turned out to be great either – it isn’t. I was fully expecting that Samuel L. Jackson’s role wouldn’t be much more than a cameo. I was pleasantly surprise that SLJ’s role was quite substantial. He helped…
