  • Review: Pokémon: Detective Pikachu

    I choose you… Ryan Reynolds! This latest Pokemon film hits the nostalgia bone hard, but falls apart plot wise. You WILL want a Pokemon after seeing this film, but first make sure you’re someone who actually wants to (and is equipped to) see this film first. Ryan Reynolds, Justice Smith, Kathryn Newton, Rita Ora, Suki…

  • Review: Long Shot

    This week brings “Long Shot” which while undeniably funny, salts a pretty painful political wound. ​Charlize Theron and Seth Rogen star in “Long Shot” which is about an unlikely romance between Theron and Rogen, oh – and she’s the Secretary of State. June Diane Raphael, O’Shea Jackson Jr, Alexander Skarsgard, Randy Orton, Lisa Kudrow, Andy…

  • Review: Avengers: Endgame (Spoiler Free)

    After 22 movies and 11 years, “Avengers: Endgame” is here. Time to take a spoiler free look at the Marvel film to end all Marvel films (until of course the next one in 2 months?) he end-ish is finally here. No you don’t have to remember or re-binge all 22 movies right before to enjoy…

  • Review: Disney Nature’s Penguins

    Steve the penguin is the hero we deserve with this week’s “Disney Nature’s Penguins” documentary. ​I am a sucker for a nature doc and “Disney Nature’s Penguins” is no exception. Narrated by Ed Helms, the film follows Steve the penguin during his trials and tribulations as he navigates the world and responsibilities of having to…

  • Review: Hellboy, Missing Link, and High Life

    This week brings two unfortunate box office entries with “Hellboy” and “High Life” while “Missing Link” is worthy of at least one viewing. “Hellboy” is an utter disappointment. It’s a sloppy mess of a film that is not fun, entertaining, or impressive in any way. David Harbour is wasted in the role. Milla Jovovich, Sasha…

  • Review: Shazam

    This week brings “Shazam” which really should or could also be titled “Call Me By Your Name”… ​Based on the DC Comics superhero, Zachary Levi brings Shazam to the big screen in the titular role. This film skews on the brighter side for a DC film and also on the younger side (which is what…

  • Review: Us and The Hummingbird Project

    Jordan Peele is back in action with the terrifying “Us” and then there’s the utterly skippable pseudo-tech thriller “The Hummingbird Project.” Jordan Peele continues to prove he’s a master of the horror genre with his follow up to “Get Out” – “Us.” It stars Lupita Nyong’o, Winston Duke, Elisabeth Moss, and Tim Heidecker. ​Meanwhile “The…

  • Review: Gloria Bell

    If Julianne Moore can’t make it as a middle aged woman, what hope is there for the rest of us? “Gloria Bell” dives in to life as a divorcee. ​Less plot, more portrait, “Gloria Bell” is the remake of “Gloria” from Academy Award winning director Sebastián Lelio who revisits the material with Moore in the…
