No Time to Die was not how I expected Daniel Craig to end his run as James Bond. I thought this movie would be epic, on the same level as Casino Royale and Skyfall, yet left the theater angrier than sad. This movie’s bloated run time was filled with so much nonsense, and for a … More No Time to Die (2021)
For the last seven years, I have used this blog to praise and complain about movies. Sometimes I will watch a movie and sit there the entire time wondering how on Earth a production company thought this particular story was a good idea and got behind its release. Now, as I make my way through … More The French Connection (1971)
The year 2020 marks the 20th anniversary of one of the Bets Picture winners, 2000’s Gladiator, starring Russell Crowe and Joaquin Phoenix. I wish I could say somewhere in a box my movie ticket stub is still there; however, I lost a massive amount of tickets long ago, and Gladiator would be one of them. … More Gladiator (2000)
It took only a few hours into the new year for my heart to completely broken. I love Wonder Woman. I love Gal Gadot as Woman Woman. I thought the first film was one of the greatest movies in film history and hands down the best comic book hero film to date. WW84 was supposed … More Wonder Woman 1984 (2020)
In 2019 I came across an Arnold Schwarzenegger speech on YouTube that motivated me to take my gym training to the next level. All these months later, I still listen to it and almost have it memorized by heart. The majority of us know who Schewazenegger is, whether it is a career as a bodybuilder, … More Conan the Barbarian (1982)
In 1995, Waterworld was quite ahead of its time with the unique concept that dryland is no more. They have been a thousand movies that involve the end of the world crisis,’ yet Waterworld is still alone in its own subgenre. Kevin Costner is known as the Drifter, a man who roams the open water … More Waterworld (1995)
The Game came out in 1997, which means I’ve had over two decades to deconstruct this movie time and time again. Even viewing this crazy story today, I still don’t quite understand the finer details of it all. As a fan of Michael Douglas’s career, the only thing I learnt from this particular role is … More The Game (1997)
In some marriages, couples argue over chores or money. In my house, our debates are usually centred around movies, and sometimes they run deep. Deep Impact will be one of my wife’s favourite movies of all-time, yet I was never on that bandwagon. I am a proud member of the Armageddon fan club because I … More Deep Impact (1998)
Whenever I sit down to watch Running Scared today, I think back to the day my grandmother introduced me to this film. I went over to visit one day, and she was watching this cop drama that was shot in such dark tones. The story had a lot of guns and violence, which made it … More Running Scared (2006)
Mel Gibson will be remembered for many things he did on the big screen or behind the camera. Known for roles in Lethal Weapon and Braveheart and the director of The Passion of the Christ. One of the roles I’ll always fondly remember him as Benjamin Martin, one of the bravest fictional characters to fight … More The Patriot (2000)
