Source I've seen enough of these curse game movies to have low expectations of the genre. However, I was pleasantly surprised by Choose or Die. While it may not leave a lasting impression, it isn't the worst way to spend two hours. I honestly believe it to be one of the better films in the genre. Choose... Continue Reading →
Movie Review: The Northman (2022)
Source I was not expecting a fantasy adventure from The Northman, but I am not one to complain as I have been starving for a good fantasy. From the trailers, this seemed like another revenge action movie only with a Viking skin, but I was surprised that there was a bit more depth to it. The Northman is essentially Hamlet adapted...

Series Review: Barry (2018)
With the third season of Barry coming to a close, if you haven't started watching this series, now is the perfect time to start. Season three is unfolding into the most insane and frustrating journey put on a reel, and I absolutely love every minute of it. For those of you who don't know, Barry is a dark comedy...

Movie Review: Last Holiday (2006)
Source Queen Latifah proves once again that she can be good in anything. This isn't a very good movie, but I can't deny that her performance gives this movie its life. I liked it when I watched it long ago, but watching it again came with the uncomfortable realization that Last Holiday has not aged well. It... Continue Reading →
Movie Review: Don’t Get Caught (2018)
Don't Get Caught is an action stoner comedy that you haven't heard of for good reason. This lazy and uninspired movie does not deserve your time. The acting is horrible, the editing is terrible, and there is no plot. You can find this movie free on YouTube, but it isn't worth the trouble. There is absolutely... Continue Reading →
Movie Review: Once Bitten (1985)
Source I was unimpressed by Once Bitten. This comedy has not aged well. A lot of the jokes no longer land, making this movie feel as eternal as the life of the vampires in it. Once Bitten is an absurd and unstructured comedy that relies heavily on the absurdity of the narrative. You have a matron of vampires who... Continue Reading →
Series Review: Star Trek: Prodigy(2021)
Source Star Trek: Prodigy is the modern Star Trek narrative I have been searching for. This animated series follows a group of misfits who find themselves on a stolen federation ship. With The Diviner after them, they must learn to fly the ship and work together as a functioning crew. Will they be able to overcome... Continue Reading →
South Park: The Streaming Wars (2022) Review
Source pression. The fellas at South Park have released a few made for streaming specials that are anything but special. While I do appreciate that the comedy is evolving and adapting to a newer audience, it is a style that doesn't always vibe with me. I am not a purist in any anyway. There are... Continue Reading →
Movie Review: Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore(2022)
Source I expected a lot more magic from a movie about wizards. While there are a few scenes that tickle my desire for wizard violence, it is often cut short for political garbage that I didn't care for. If I wanted to watch a political movie about zealots and corruption, there are better avenues. As far... Continue Reading →
Movie Review: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2014)
Source I've watched this movie a few times already, but even now forget what this movie is about. While I appreciate the attempt of bringing this older IP to a modern audience, it isn't a very good attempt. This is a Ninja Turtles' movie from the perspective of April. Instead of an action packed war... Continue Reading →
