Justice For Todd And Margo

I have a question to ask you – What exactly did Todd and Margo Chester do in National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation to do be villainized and suffer the burnt of Clark Griswold’s mayhem? I’ll wait. Can’t think of anything, can you? When we first see Todd and Margo (Nicholas Guest and Julia Louis-Dreyfus), they areContinue reading “Justice For Todd And Margo”

‘Nutcrackers’ Is Unadulterated Pap

By now as we put a close on 2024, it should be evident that streaming services have become the dumping grounds for bad movies. Usually, studios did this in January. But why wait until the new year when you can just dump it on a streaming service and get the write off for the nextContinue reading “‘Nutcrackers’ Is Unadulterated Pap”

‘Runaway’ Stumbled 40 Years Ago, But The Future Is Now

The question of what came first – the chicken or the egg can apply to many science-fiction movies. Did people read Jules Verne and become inspired to make submarines and spaceships or was Verne just expanding on what others were designing? Submersibles date back 300 years before Verne wrote 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. WhatContinue reading “‘Runaway’ Stumbled 40 Years Ago, But The Future Is Now”

‘Girls Gone Wild’ Documentary Explores Dark History Behind Video Franchise

I never did watch a Girls Gone Wild video. They were everywhere back when I was in my early 20s. You’d see the promo commercials late at night which looked like nothing more than young women on Spring Break or night clubs showing their breasts and maybe their butts all the time. But how muchContinue reading “‘Girls Gone Wild’ Documentary Explores Dark History Behind Video Franchise”

Hot Frosty is one of those movies where you can’t fathom if it’s intended to be taken seriously or meant as a parody of the Hallmark Christmas holiday movie genre.

TheyContinue reading “‘Hot Frosty’ Dunks Holiday RomComs In Subtle Silly Satire”

I Was Bored And You Won’t ‘Smile 2’ About Cliched Horror Sequel

Smile 2 could’ve very easily been called Scream if that title hadn’t already been used in a different horror franchise. The first Smile had a great marketing campaign behind it that would’ve made William Castle happy as people were featured in vantage points at sporting events holding a creepy smile. And the movie was aContinue reading “I Was Bored And You Won’t ‘Smile 2’ About Cliched Horror Sequel”

No Sympathies For Those Who Weren’t Sympathetic To Others

About 20 years ago, Denzel Washington and Dakota Fanning were in the second adaptation of Man on Fire, directed by Tony Scott, known for making high-octane action thrillers. The movie was based on a book published in 1980 written by British novelist Philip Nicholson under the pen name A.J. Quinnell.
