Movie Review – Suspiria
—
As Suspiria ended, for the first time in my career, I didn’t have a clue as to what I had just seen. Fortunately, there was a very pleasant young man seated near me who helped shed some light on this confusing piece of work. He referred back to the original, telling me that this movie…

Movie Review – Hunter Killer
—
It’s movies like this that make me love my job. I went in expecting to be bored since this type of movie never appealed to me. After watching this one, I am going to take the weekend to watch Hunt For Red October and any other submarine movie I can find. My eyes were…

Movie Review – Bad Times at the El Royale
—
Is Bad Times at the El Royal an Oscar-worthy movie? Probably not. However, there were two performances that do stand out and is, in my opinion, worthy of at least an Oscar nod. Cynthia Erivo, as Darlene Sweet, and Lewis Pullman as Miles Miller, stole the show. Considering that Jeff Bridges always gives an…

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.

Movie Review – Gone Girl
—
This isn’t exactly my favorite genre. Still, I loved 98% of this movie, but I don’t want to say which 2% of the movie I didn’t like, because that might spoil some things for you and I’d hate myself for that, because this is a really good movie — except for the part that isn’t.…
