Sing Sing

Sing Sing Movie Review

August 15, 2024 (updated August 15, 2024) Published by

“Sing Sing” is an emotionally uplifting story set in the most depressing place — the maximum security prison called ‘Sing Sing’. Prisoners on the inside never have a lot of freedom to express themselves. But a program designed to get inmates familiar with ‘The Arts’ gives them a chance to produce plays and learn acting skills. You might call it ‘The Sing Sing Redemption’, just without the major escape at the end. Read more

Fly Me to the Moon

Fly Me to the Moon Movie Review

July 11, 2024 (updated July 11, 2024) Published by

“Fly Me to the Moon” is a movie that has the backdrop of the U.S. Space Program of the late 1960’s. The Apollo moon shot mission is the key focus. But it is not content with following the (fictional) people involved. It instead goes into major ‘conspiracy theory’ territory. The actual moon landing will be a real boost for America’s prestige — even if Government Forces need to ‘fake it’… Read more

Despicable Me 4 Movie Review

July 2, 2024 (updated July 2, 2024) Published by

“Despicable Me 4” is a further adventure into the world of Gru and his family and his Minions. In case you have been hiding under a rock for the past 14 years, the ‘Despicable’ empire has continued to grow and get more fans over the years. The quality of animated movie making may not have increased much with the release of these films. But the results at the Box Office show these will be a hit. Read more

A Quiet Place: Day One

A Quiet Place: Day One Movie Review

June 27, 2024 (updated June 27, 2024) Published by

“A Quiet Place: Day One” is part of a larger franchise for ‘Quiet Place’ horror movies. Some outer-space creatures had landed on Earth to cause havoc. The other movies dealt with how people had adapted to the monsters attacking people who were too loud. These critters are nearly blind, but have an acute sense of hearing. So you need to crunch on that popcorn just a little quieter… Read more

Daddio

Daddio Movie Review

June 27, 2024 (updated June 27, 2024) Published by

“Daddio” is a movie with a pretty simple concept. It is a conversation in a cab, and a lot of talking in a taxi. The gruff driver and the wise-for-her-years young lady in the backseat test and probe each other for faults and flaws. Each one explains their life view – and they learn more than expected from the other person. In the end it is not the Destination, but the Journey…

Kinds-of-Kindness

Kinds Of Kindness Movie Review

June 27, 2024 (updated June 27, 2024) Published by

“Kinds of Kindness” is a Russian nesting doll of a movie. This means that the main movie is only shell that contains three smaller mini-movies. The same actors appear in all three shorts playing different roles in each one. Is this three-in-one approach a way to please the audience? Of this just an example of the ‘Kinds of Creepiness’ that the Writer/Director wants to focus on? Read more

Thelma

Thelma Movie Review

June 20, 2024 (updated June 20, 2024) Published by

“Thelma” is wonderful picture of a confident and energetic geriatric. That is, older retired lady who decides that getting older does not mean she will get dumber. When she is scammed over the phone for a lot of money — her ‘Tom Cruise’ overdrive kicks in. She teams up with an old friend to trade in her needlepoint — so she can hold her adversaries at gun point…. Read more
