2.3 Stars Episodes 1 and 2 I watched the first two episodes with expected boredom. I'm fairly certain that the rest of the season would struggle to maintain and likely drop below this benchmark. There were a slop load of overdramatic slow motion fights, which were an attempt to emulate and translate The Fallout games gore filled combat to screen. Stale, but not terrible, CGI for settings and characters;...
Horror and dumb go together like peas and cah-rots, to paraphrase Forrest Gump.
Think: There’s a serial killer on the loose … let’s split up!
The monster sure looks like it’s dead. Let’s...
This piece of global warming propaganda was pushed hard by our elites in my youth. Full of lies, such as 20 feet sea rise and the Gulf Stream stopping altogether, and even popularizing the poor drowning polar bear meme, this propaganda was created to whip up a mass hysteria that we still are dealing with every day. Instead of focusing on actual environmental concerns, such as plastic pollution and...
3.7 Stars Obviously this will probably only really be interesting to you if you care about Apocalypse Now or film making. Lots of stories about production problems involving, replacing lead actors, working with The Philippines government during a rebellion, and fat ass Marlon Brando, trying to come up with poetic crap to say while the cameras roll
4.0 Stars Apocalypse Now is a ridiculous film. It is a product of so many things/ideas, A classic literary work (Heart of Darkness), an expression of America's cultural confusion and regret from the Vietnam War, and the hellish production of the film its self. This is why it has so much staying power in the canon of films. It's a conversation piece that can be followed down so many different avenues...

The Coens. The Russos. The Farrellys. The Duplasses. The Safdies.

No, Paul and Benjamin China aren’t in the rarified air of those famous directorial duos. Not even close.
Still, the...

When a new Indian restaurant opens its doors across the road from a Michelin-star eatery in a quaint French village, owner of the posh establishment Madame Mallory (Helen Mirren - 1923) immediately starts...
The art style is ugly and the classic Hercules story is watered out to a flat and dull American flick. The returning black singers are annoying, and the main female character lacks feminine manners. In short, I would skip this one for sure
An enjoyable movie for a lazy evening. Main cast is all good actors. The love story with some Arab woman is a big minus, but can be overlooked
Quite predictable story, but a wholesome and cute fantasy overall

Confession: This critic loves movies where innocents scramble in the woods while something or someone hunts them down.
Think of thrillers like “Backcountry” or the sublime “Alone” as prime examples.
