It is tough to criticize a movie about the empowerment of women and the Me Too movement. Although if you are going to throw a film at us about the importance of the issues at hand, pick something better than Bombshell. Hailed as one of 2019’s best movies, based on the subject material and the … More Bombshell (2019)
On some level, you got to feel bad that Cats came out in 2019. In a world run by social media and memes, Cats picked a terrible time to be awful. I was chomping at the bit to catch this movie, not because I was excited to see it, but because I needed to know … More Cats (2019)
It seems like forever ago, yet it was only two years ago. John Travolta received a whole ton of flack for his performance as John Gotti in Gotti. Despite the fact I knew this movie wasn’t the type I would enjoy, I foolishly gave it a shot anyway. I blame the desire to watch the … More Gotti (2018)
For the umpteen time in my life, I went to watch a movie that made absolutely no sense to me. It was hard to watch Emma (2020) starring Anya Taylor-Joy without thinking about Emma (1996) starring Gwyneth Paltrow. I remember seeing that older movie while in high school, so the biggest question I got today … More Emma (2020)
In case you haven’t figured it out by now, sports and movies have been a significant part of my life since I can remember. Now that I’ve reached my late thirties, there so many movies I haven’t seen or heard of. My hope is that I get the chance to someday. The movie Outbreak appeared … More Outbreak (1995)
Twelve Monkeys is considered one of the top five movies about viruses. Since I have never seen this cult classic with Bruce Willis and Brad Pitt, I thought there was no better time than the present to watch it. Personally, I thought this movie was pure garbage. Like an out of control dumpster fire that … More Twelve Monkeys (1995)
This review was written in March 2020. By this time, the world has been bogged down by a pandemic for about a month. Today’s news and case counts are eerily similar to the epidemic that strikes the globe in the 2011 movie Contagion. I saw this movie during its original run at the theatre and … More Contagion (2011)
We went to watch I Still Believe because of the two leads, KJ Apa and Britt Robinson. Together, these two made a fantastic on-screen couple. For those of you without any prior knowledge of the movie, I Still Believe is a Christian movie based on the first marriage of singer Jeremy Camp. People have come … More I Still Believe (2020)
The Way Back is not your typical sports drama. It is also not your usual Ben Affleck role. Filming this particular movie had to be gut-wrenching and liberating for Affleck, who has had his addiction issues play out in the public eye. This basketball drama probably isn’t for the kids, since it is littered with … More The Way Back (2020)
When the first trailer(s) for Onward was released, I had wondered if Pixar had finally lost their minds. This medieval-themed movie set around a pair of troll brothers looked terrible. I wasn’t the least bit excited, but then professional and personal reviews informed me that it was indeed Pixar’s next hit. Despite my skepticism and … More Onward (2020)
