I wish I had one positive thing to say about Father Figures, but honestly I got nothing. Why on earth did they think a buddy comedy with Owen Wilson and Ed Helms would be funny is going to be one of life’s greatest mysterious. Neither can really carry their own roles in films where they … More Father Figures (2017)
Pixar set the standard for tug at your heart-strings animation, so whoever tries to duplicate those same emotions always comes up short. Ferdinand is a great movie, for both the kids and adults, but was lacking the emotional power that we’ve come to expect over the last two decades from blockbuster animated movies. This story … More Ferdinand (2017)
Maybe I was mislead from all the promotional hype of Darkest Hour?

Well, once we get past the first 30 minutes of the movie when Matt Damon’s character gets downsized and adjusts to his … More Downsizing (2017)
Pitch Perfect 3 was aca-terrible. The original film of the trilogy was the absolute best because it was a fresh idea and brought a whole new music genre to the limelight. The sequel was kinda just meh and didn’t improve on the original product… then there is the third film, that hit theaters this past … More Pitch Perfect 3 (2017)
The Room was so amazing that two brothers, James and Dave Franco, felt that the cult classic needed its own documentary/feature-length film. Not much is known about the iconic Disaster Artist Tommy Wiseau, but this man with a heart of gold and bottomless money pit will try to make his and his friend’s Hollywood dreams … More The Disaster Artists (2017)
Jumanji is one of those movies people look back on fondly, that featured Robin Williams and was released in the 1990’s.

My mind was spoiled … More Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle (2017)
