Get Knocked Down; Get Back Up

Well, I got some bad news today. While it’s not as bad as some of the things going on around the world, it’s bad to me. I’m so sick of people constantly belitting someone’s problems in the grand scheme of the world. C.S. Lewis once said, “The pain I feel now is the happiness IContinue reading “Get Knocked Down; Get Back Up”

‘Roofman’ Is A Split-Level Story That Never Feels Cozy For A Movie

At one time on their TV show in the late 1990s, critics Gene Siskel and Roger Ebert commented some “based on a true story” movies work better sometimes as just a magazine story.   I agree. A movie like Roofman is a perfect testament to that.   At two hours with credits including real testimonials from his victims, this is mostly a movie that mightContinue reading “‘Roofman’ Is A Split-Level Story That Never Feels Cozy For A Movie”

Happy 100 Birthday Dick Van Dyke!

I find it fascinating that today Dick Van Dyke celebrates his 100th birthday with none other than Taylor Swift. While it is common for celebrities to have the same birthday, both Van Dyke and Swift have done so much for their respective mediums.   Van Dyke was already a legend back in 1989 when Swift was born, evenContinue reading “Happy 100 Birthday Dick Van Dyke!”

‘Cobra’ Has Bite To Slithering Story

From his start as a struggling actor in Roger Corman-produced cheap exploitation movies to an Oscar winning movie in a matter of a few years is the type of Cinderella story that most actors dream of.   Yet, the problem with Sylvester Stallone has always been his inflated ego. Many times in his career spanning back to the late 1960s when he appeared as extrasContinue reading “‘Cobra’ Has Bite To Slithering Story”

Merry Christmas! Sh!tter Was Full!

Living out in the country means you may have the luxury of running water, but acess to a sewer system is a different story. So, every few years, I have to have my septic tank pumped. It just so happens this year it was a couple of weeks before Christmas so I couldn’t resist. MerryContinue reading “Merry Christmas! Sh!tter Was Full!”

‘Nobody 2’ Not Just Electric Boogaloo

When Nobody was released four years ago, it seemed to be a breath of fresh air people needed after a year of the Covid-19 pandemic. It was just a silly action thriller starring Bob Odenkirk as Hutch Mansell a former government assassin turned everyday man trying to live a “normal life” in the suburbs.   Yet the humdrum monotony has put a strainContinue reading “‘Nobody 2’ Not Just Electric Boogaloo”
