‘Flight Risk’ Crashes After Take-Off
The big twist in Flight Risk is that Mark Wahlberg is a balding bad guy pretending to be a regular joe pilot. Mel Gibson’s latest directorial effort since Hacksaw Ridge is smaller on scale. Every now and again, a filmmaker does a movie like this. I’ve always thought big-name directors sometimes work better with smaller-scaleContinue reading “‘Flight Risk’ Crashes After Take-Off”
‘Greedy People’ Suffers From Its Own Abundance Of Arrogance
A movie like Greedy People is a few script revisions away from being a great black comedy thriller. It’s the type of movie Quentin Tarantino or The Coen Brothers would’ve written and then stuck in a drawer because they couldn’t give it the panache to make at least a few characters likeable. I’m reminded ofContinue reading “‘Greedy People’ Suffers From Its Own Abundance Of Arrogance”
‘Capricorn One’ A Thrill Ride For Conspiracy Theorists
Did we really go to the Moon? That has been the question since 1969 as skeptics believe that NASA used the same set that Stanley Kubrick used for 2001: A Space Odyssey. This was also enhanced by skeptics believing the Apollo 13 mission disaster was faked to keep public interest in the space program. AndContinue reading “‘Capricorn One’ A Thrill Ride For Conspiracy Theorists”

‘Wolf Man’ Lacks Much Bite
It’s been over 20 years since a filmmaker did anything remotely original with the whole werewolf genre with Dog Soldiers. Since then, we’ve been subjected to the Twilight series and whatever the hell The Wolf of Snow Hollow was supposed to be. Don’t be fooled by the reviews on that latter one, you’ll be rootingContinue reading “‘Wolf Man’ Lacks Much Bite”
Happy Earth Day
I hope everyone has a Happy Earth Day. We only have one planet we live on. It’s best we should take care of it as much as we can.

Rest In Power, Pope Francis
Pope Francis was probably the first pontiff in a long time that seemed to exhibit the true teachings of Jesus Christs. Let’s face it, the one he replaced, Pope Benedict XVI, was all about the flair and the pizazz of being the head of the Catholic Church. I don’t doubt there was some truth toContinue reading “Rest In Power, Pope Francis”
