Today, Dec. 14 may not be as memorable as 9/11 mostly because one political party decided a long time ago not to make much mention of it. And yet, they’ve been exploiting the deaths of 9/11 for political gane since day one. If you don’t know, it was on Dec. 14, 2012, some worthless pieceContinue reading “It’s Been 10 Years Since Sandy Hook And We Haven’t Done A Goddamn Thing”

We Need To Talk About ‘Andor’
There are two types of Star Wars fans – those that like just about everything and those that detest everything except the original trilogy, The Mandalorian and Rogue One. I’ll admit I was excited to see Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, until I saw it. I sat through an hour not caring what wasContinue reading “We Need To Talk About ‘Andor’”
First-Class Talent Get Bumped To Economy Class ‘Ticket To Paradise’
Ticket to Paradise is one of those movies that seems to live in the Nancy Myers world where everyone is very well off financially and seems to have the means and abilities to drop everything they’re doing and travel halfway across the country on a moment’s notice. I give director Ol Parker credit for addingContinue reading “First-Class Talent Get Bumped To Economy Class ‘Ticket To Paradise’”
‘Dual’ Lacks Satisfying Execution
Dual is one of those movies that presents a lot of great ideas but does little with them. Set in the future during an undetermined time, it begins with Theo James as someone who seems to be hunted in front of an audience. He is shot with a crossbow arrow but is able to defeatContinue reading “‘Dual’ Lacks Satisfying Execution”
Tis The Season Of The Double Standard
Let me start off by saying I offer my most sincere condolensces to the family and close friends of Kirstie Alley. I may not have agreed with her on some things she said these last fews year (and she said a lot). I’m no monster. Cancer is a hard way to go for anyone andContinue reading “Tis The Season Of The Double Standard”
‘Christmas Bloody Christmas’ Is A Bloody F@$&in’ Mess
Christmas Bloody Christmas is the lastest entry in the Killer Santa subgenre of horror that has exploded in the last couple of decades. Even though it’s not good, I still think Goldberg killed it as a murdering Santa in Santa’s Slay. But this one is a mixture of Bad Santa meets The Terminator with aContinue reading “‘Christmas Bloody Christmas’ Is A Bloody F@$&in’ Mess”
‘Scarface’ Pushes It To The Limit Because “Nothing Exceeds Like Excess”
Brian DePalma was always one of those directors during the 1960s and 1970s who seemed to be on the finge of Hollywood. So, it’s no surprise that he wasn’t the first choice to direct a remake of the 1932 Howard Hawks original Scarface. It was actually Sidney Lumet who Al Pacino and his manager/film producerContinue reading “‘Scarface’ Pushes It To The Limit Because “Nothing Exceeds Like Excess””
‘The Shining’ Is A Labyrinth Of Horror
My first memory of The Shining is seeing a promo on HBO back in the mid-1980s of Jack Nicholson chasing Danny Lloyd through the snow-covered maze. I had never bothered to watch the movie until my teens when I didn’t really like it. I was wondering why Stanley Kubrick would make such a movie. HeContinue reading “‘The Shining’ Is A Labyrinth Of Horror”
All-Star Cast Can’t Save ‘Amsterdam’
A movie like Amsterdam might have been more popular if it had been more upfront about its plot in the marketing. Instead, 20th Century, the studio distributing it decided to focus on the big names in the cast which include Christian Bale, Margot Robbie, Rami Malek, Taylor Swift, Mike Myers, Michael Shannon, Chris Rock, RobertContinue reading “All-Star Cast Can’t Save ‘Amsterdam’”
My Thoughts On ‘Willow’ Series: You Aren’t Great!
I’m just going to throw this out of there and all Gen Xers and nerds are just going to have to deal with it, but the 1988 Willow movie wasn’t as good as we remember. I was barely 10 when the movie was in theaters but I finally saw it on HBO the following summer.Continue reading “My Thoughts On ‘Willow’ Series: You Aren’t Great!”
