Chicago was the best picture winner in 2002. It also won the best supporting actress, direction-set decoration, costume design, film editing, and sound. The film was also nominated for seven different awards, that it didn’t win. Most musicals these days don’t get this kind of recognition no matter who is in the cast and how … More Chicago (2002)
Johnny Depp has played a handful of memorable characters in film history, with Sweeny Todd being one of them. I can openly admit I have only enjoyed watching Depp in a handful of roles and really can’t stand his more iconic ones, like Jack Sparrow. Much to the surprise of my wife, I had never … More Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street (2007)
If you go to IMDb, you will notice that Into the Woods was nominated for three Oscars. Meryl Streep accounts for one of those nominations since any role she’s cast in gets an automatic nod. The other two were production and costume design, the only thing this movie had going for it. We all know … More Into the Woods (2014)
If you have been following my trek through the Cinderella Story franchise, you will come to know that I really enjoyed the first three entries, rating them 8/10, 7/10, and 7/10 in that order. When we sat down to watch If the Shoe Fits, I was wondering if the series could keep up the momentum. … More A Cinderella Story: If the Shoe Fits (2016)
If you knew me back in the day, I had a big crush on Hilary Duff (can’t deny it). I even own A Cinderella Story, where she is the star. Fast forward many years later, and I find out my wife also loves the Cinderella Story franchise. Since I am all about making lists and … More Another Cinderella Story (2008)
The Descendants trilogy wraps up with this third chapter. Instead of fighting a villain from the Isle of Lost, like most of the franchise to date, we find that our new antagonist is someone from Auradon. Upset that she will no longer be the Princess, Audrey (Sarah Jeffery) goes Rogue, casting spells on anyone and … More Descendants 3 (2019)
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)
I don’t quite understand all the hype about Wild Rose. This movie was rather bland and didn’t inspire me to do anything, except maybe take care of my kids if I ever had any. Wild Rose didn’t break the mould because we have seen this same story time and time again. People think the grass … More Wild Rose (2019)
5/10 Movies based on musicians and their music has been a new norm. There have been so many better movies than Yesterday, but the story does introduce a new generation to the importance of The Beatles (in case they didn’t know). I’ve never been a huge fan of their music, I also don’t like Ed … More Yesterday (2019)
2/10 Rocketman will go down as one of the biggest disappointments of 2019. I know I’ll be one of the few who hated this movie, but I just never got into the story. I just didn’t care. I wanted music and an amazing performance from Taron Edgerton. I only got the latter. People can say … More Rocketman (2019)
