One would think that when you team director Michael Bay with Deadpool…I mean Ryan Reynolds, in an action-comedy movie, it would be epic. Well, that was not the case. It was much worse than you could ever imagine. 6 Underground was another Netflix action disaster, I mean blockbuster. However, there was one problem. This film … More 6 Underground (2019)
Bright was released in 2017 and was a film that Netflix publicized heavily to attract viewers to their platform. With Will Smith and Joel Edgerton as headliners, it seemed like a golden opportunity for the streaming service to make a name in the action genre. Honestly, they failed. Miserably. If you need a good laugh, … More Bright (2017)
Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile came out last May and became one of Netflix’s most talked-about movies to date. Zac Efron gave a career-defining performance, while Lily Collins showed her versatility by standing by her man while he fights for his life in the courtroom. Ted Bundy is considered one of America’s most notorious … More Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile (2019)
If you watch the trailer for The Last Thing He Wanted, you would have thought that Anne Hathaway’s character was an investigative journalist who was going to expose something that made Ben Affleck’s character really upset. If so, you may have been as disappointed as me and the general public. The Last Thing He Wanted was … More The Last Thing He Wanted (2020)
It only took me a year to watch a movie I really wanted to see. Triple Frontier came out in March of 2019 and featured one of my favourite actors, Ben Affleck, along with a cast of amazing actors. Oscar Issac, Charlie Hunnam, Garret Hedlund, and Pedro Pascal round out a team of former military … More Triple Frontier (2019)
As you will notice, Brain on Fire came out four years ago. That’s how long that movie was on my watchlist. I knew nothing about the subject matter, and I was only interested in watching Chloe Grace Moretz act. What amazed me was the story of Susannah Cahalan. This girl had it all. Her dream … More Brain on Fire (2016)
For the love of humanity, do not ever watch Murder Mystery. We hate to give out zeroes here, but Murder Mystery definitely made us consider adding this movie category. The absolute worse part of the film is the acting. Numerous times we just looked at each other and wondered if we should just shut the … More Murder Mystery (2019)
If you Google films about the iconic pair Bonnie & Clyde, you will notice there are at least a dozen of them. What you won’t find in that pile is a movie about the people who actually took the pair down for good. Netflix jumped at the opportunity to bring the story of Frank Hamer … More The Highwaymen (2019)
Mark Wahlberg made his Netflix debut in a cop film that is filled with dry humour and plenty of violence. I found myself laughing out loud as Wahlberg struggled to adapt to life outside of prison while trying to solve a murder that he has no business getting involved with. I love any movie that … More Spenser Confidential (2020)
The Ritual had potential to be great. Netflix tries to give us good quality programming, but sometimes less is better. If this story had just stuck to four lost souls (who are best friends) wandering around in the Swedish wilderness, this could have gone down so many paths and been epic. Instead we got a … More The Ritual (2017)
