Movie Review – The Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard
If the plot for Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard were a character, it would have been shot in the head and buried in lava within the first 5 minutes. Not only is the plot bad, as the movie goes on it becomes clear that it was bad on purpose, as evidence of a heavy-handed, early 007 approach…

The Giant James Bond Rewatch – For Your Eyes Only (1981)
I don’t think it is any secret that, in my ever so humble opinion, Roger Moore was the worst Bond ever. Hell’s teeth, I even think Woody Allen and Daliah Lavi made a better fist of the job. But I know that there are fans of the Moore-era, as will be seen when my editor…

The Giant James Bond Rewatch – Dr. No (1962)
—
Looking back, it’s almost impossible to imagine that Albert R Broccoli and Harry Saltzman didn’t know that, with Dr. No, they were establishing a film franchise to become the second longest-running in the world. At fifty-nine years the only thing that’s outlasted it is Godzilla, which began in 1954 and is still going. When you…

James Bond Rewatch – You Only Live Twice (1967)
The fifth entry in the Bond series is an unexpected surprise. For me, this is the sleeper hit of the series so far. It’s a movie you never hear people talk about it, yet it’s a lot of fun. This was a lot more entertaining to me than Thunderball. Bond goes to Japan this time…

Movie Review – The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It
—
As expected, I thought the movie was great. I’m a die-hard fan of this franchise and I’ve got zero complaints on The Devil Made Me Do It. Vera Farmiga and Patrick Wilson were marvelous. The way they have brought Ed and Lorraine Warren to life is outstanding. I feel this movie showcases them at their…

James Bond Rewatch – Live and Let Die (1973)
—
Roger Moore is my favorite James Bond, and Live & Let Die is my favorite Bond film. Do you remember your 1st Bond film in the theater? (Mine was 1979’s Moonraker, which has SPACE in it, and thus I loved it.) So it’s natural that Moore was ‘my’ Bond. Moore also did the most Bond…

Movie Review – A Quiet Place Part II
—
A Quiet Place 2 is like a delicious sauce left to simmer until only the essentials remain; at under 90 minutes runtime, not counting the end credits, it walks the fine line between not one scene feeling rushed, nor one that drags on longer than necessary. It is a masterful work of storytelling. If there’s…

Movie Franchise Rewatch Analysis – Star Trek: Nemesis
—
I haven’t finished my Star Trek franchise rewatch yet, but I’m pretty sure this is the worst stinker in the 13 movie run. I was pleasantly surprised by most of The Final Frontier being better than I remembered. And while I need to rewatch Into Darkness to see how it fared over time in comparison,…
