While Will Smith’s stuck-up arrogant attitude has overshadowed the 2022 Oscars, people need to realize that CODA, which won three awards, and should be an inspiration for people everywhere not just those who are deaf of hard of hearing and a call for change. I was watching Tropic Thunder the other day. This movie cameContinue reading “‘CODA’ Should Be The Beginning, Not The End”

‘The VelociPastor’ Is The Movie We Need Right Now
If you have access to Amazon Prime or at least Tubi, you should check out The VelociPastor, a low-budget action comedy horror that needs to be seen. Edward D. Wood Jr. would’ve made a movie like this back in the day. The movie starts out within the first few minutes of showing how cheap itContinue reading “‘The VelociPastor’ Is The Movie We Need Right Now”
The Oscars (And Movies) Are Stuck In Arrested Development
Why do people hate the Oscars? Can someone identify all the gunmen aiming their weapons at people’s heads forcing them to watch the Oscars? The reason people don’t watch the Oscars anymore is because a lot of Millennials and Gen Xers don’t have access to cable/satellite TV. And they’re not going to pay the $65Continue reading “The Oscars (And Movies) Are Stuck In Arrested Development”
‘Ghostbusters’ Franchise Still Has Life In It Which Is Both Good And Bad
Okay, I’m going to be brutally honest and frank, the 2016 Ghostbusters was awful. But not for the reason that it changed them to all women. The fact that they even tried to reboot it at all was a huge mistake. There’s some things you just don’t mess with. I was on board and willingContinue reading “‘Ghostbusters’ Franchise Still Has Life In It Which Is Both Good And Bad”
‘Joe Bell’ Has The Wrong Ring To It
A movie like Joe Bell should’ve been better. With a cast that includes Mark Wahlberg, Connie Britton and Gary Sinise, it could’ve been something better, especially given the script co-written by Larry McMurtry. But it falls apart because it doesn’t know what it wants to be. Spoilers ahead for this review but it’s the onlyContinue reading “‘Joe Bell’ Has The Wrong Ring To It”
‘Jackass Forever’ A Fitting Swan Song
The concept behind Jackass isn’t new now and it wasn’t new back when the show premiered on MTV in the fall of 2000. People have been doing practical jokes on unsuspecting victims for decades. And people have been doing crazy stunts for the entertainment of others, even if it was their own circle of friends,Continue reading “‘Jackass Forever’ A Fitting Swan Song”
‘House Of Gucci’ Needs Major Renovations
Lady Gaga’s performance as Patrizia Reggiani is the thread that keeps a movie like House of Gucci watchable which at two and a half hours lags a lot before it finally falls under its own shoddy building materials. If there is one good thing you can say about it, at least the streaming services andContinue reading “‘House Of Gucci’ Needs Major Renovations”
‘Deep Water’ Gets Bogged Down In Its Own Studio’s Disneyfied Censorship
People are describing Deep Water as an erotic thriller. But this is like calling Carrot Top a great comedian. Yes, there may be some who enjoy his style as well as that as Rita Rudner and Paula Poundstone, but they can’t be mentioned in the same sentence as Bill Hicks, Chris Rock, George Carlin orContinue reading “‘Deep Water’ Gets Bogged Down In Its Own Studio’s Disneyfied Censorship”
‘Basic Instinct’ Examines America’s Love/Hate With Sex And Violence
Before Basic Instinct hit theaters on this day, March 20, 1992, it was already engulfed in so much controversy, it more or less led to the movie’s success. The plot seemed typical. On the surface it looked like another Alfred Hitchcock knock-off police procedural of a gruff and gritty cop, San Francisco detective Nick CurranContinue reading “‘Basic Instinct’ Examines America’s Love/Hate With Sex And Violence”
‘Miracle Mile’ Presents A Nightmare View Of Imminent Nuclear War
Someone one going into Miracle Mile blindly might at first think it’s a simple quirky boy-meets-girl love story movie. There is absolutely nothing within the first 20 minutes that foreshadows the thrilling majority of the movie. This makes the movie more disturbing how normal everyday events can turn into chaos so fast and unexpected. ForContinue reading “‘Miracle Mile’ Presents A Nightmare View Of Imminent Nuclear War”
