The film “In the Grey” was something that got onto my radar thanks to a podcast episode. I hadn’t had any other marketing cross my radar for this film. We clock in at 1 hour 38 minutes of an anxiety machine. Questionable people going after other questionable people, and the movie progresses along a formula…

The Film “Mortal Kombat II” was a decent background movie. it clocks in at just under 2 hours, and it takes about half that time to throw you a few cords of the theme music commonly associated with this franchise. The moral of the story, should you choose to accept that there is one, is…

The film “The Devil Wears Prada 2” is a heartwarming 20-year sequel. Lady Gaga appears, as herself, and performs, as herself, and a real life journalist cameos as herself (blinking you miss it). Stanley Tucci’s character gets his limelight in the vein of the movies theme of recognition and reigniting the soul in both others…

The film “Michael” was a very decent biopic. You saw Michael Jackson, and you heard Michael Jackson. it follows him from boyhood onto his coming into his own as a musician, and performer. You see a little bit of the creative process, as well as some of the struggles with his father. I really enjoyed…

The Film “The Drama” was more interesting than I thought it would be. I went in mostly blind. It’s not a comedy, it’s not a tragedy, it’s not quite a slice of life, but you could say that it is… a drama. Robert Pattinson does a good job, as does Zendaya. Fair warning: if vomit…

Well, if I had to see “Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man”, I’m glad I did not see it in the theater, and instead watched it once it hit Netflix. I had seen most of the series, but had missed a few seasons towards the end. I don’t know if this contributed to the blah, but…

“Ready or Not 2: Here I Come” was a somewhat predictable sequel. nothing outrageous, and I suppose the Boogeyman of satanic cults is back in vogue. It was fun seeing Buffy and Frodo Baggins play well together. General theme of the movie was familial discord. And remember folks, if you can’t reconcile, the lawyers always…

“Project Hail Mary” was an interesting mix of “The Martian” and “Ad Astra”. you don’t quite feel the full 2 hours 36 minutes, but you do feel like you’ve been here a while. The music is a character unto itself, and adds well to the atmosphere of the movie. there was one scene where Ryan…

I went to go see Scream 7, more so to test the stretching attempts to improve my vision, than to see a good film. My alternative contender today was “Crime 101”, which clocks in at 2 hours 19 minutes. I wasn’t in a mood for a movie that’s over 2 hours, that I hear could…

My local theater was having an early access screening for “I Can Only Imagine 2” . I saw the words “early access”and purchased a ticket before I saw that it was a sequel, and before I bothered to find out that it’s a Christian drama film. I should not have been surprised, given the fact…
