Fractured wastes no time getting to the mystery
Fractured gets to the mystery almost immediately. You know something is off but it’s hard to judge what it is and when it started. It does a good job of giving you a hint then making you second guess. I was upset by the result at the end but I enjoyed the ride. Continue reading Fractured wastes no time getting to the mystery
Missing Link almost isn’t a kids movie
Missing Link was interesting. It almost didn’t feel like a children’s movie at times and has a lot of violence, specifically gun violence. There was a political message about the elite, racism, and sexism and a very progressive moment at the end. There is also a strong message for kids though. Continue reading Missing Link almost isn’t a kids movie
Gemini Man combines aspects of two of my favorite action films
The story reminded me somewhat of The Bourne Identity. One man with special skills vs. a corrupt government agency. The action scenes, especially between the Smiths Will, were reminiscent of the Bucky vs. Cap fight scenes in Winter Soldier. Overall, it was a fun action movie. Didn’t change the game but didn’t break anything either. Continue reading Gemini Man combines aspects of two of my favorite action films
El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie (review)
I liked it. They were able to tie up some loose ends and bring back that signature Breaking Bad style. I’d imagine most fans of the show were pleased, even if they weren’t blown away. It does nothing to take away from the show which was my main concern. Continue reading El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie (review)

In the Tall Grass takes a few too many turns
In the Tall Grass has an interesting premise that seems simple enough. You get caught up in the mystery for a while but once the answers begin to be realized the story takes a bit too long to conclude. The end will leave you with something interesting to debate with friends or family though. Continue reading In the Tall Grass takes a few too many turns
Hoop is an artistic telling of a Hoop Dreams story
I went into Hoop with certain expectations and spent most of the movie feeling like the vision wasn’t being executed. However, when the final credits rolled I realized that Robert did execute his vision for the story he was telling. It was just a story you aren’t meant to understand until the very last word. Continue reading Hoop is an artistic telling of a Hoop Dreams story
The Hole in the Ground will creep you out
The Hole in the Ground is a fun movie for sure. While this is a movie where the main character makes frustrating decisions, the payoff is still there. There are some effectively creepy moments and there is very little that is predictable. Continue reading The Hole in the Ground will creep you out
Scooter: New found footage thriller
“The Three Amigoes” are popular youtubers who do challenges on their channel. They’ve been friends all of their lives and get to make money together by just being goofy online. In Scooter, they take on a challenge that is much bigger than anything they’ve done before as they will try to ride low powered scooters from Miami to New Orleans. Over 800 miles. I’m not sure they even made it out of Florida. Continue reading Scooter: New found footage thriller
