Sing Sing Movie Review

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

“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 Sing Sing Movie Review

Time Bandits Apple TV+ Series Review

August 13, 2024 (updated August 13, 2024) Published by Shari K. Green

Getting fully into this new “Time Bandits” series is easier if you’ve never seen its predecessor. Though creators Jemaine Clement, Iain Morris, Taika Waititi do a good job of recreating the original intent, it’s for the love of all things Python that we watch. Letting that go will help you to just have fun in Waititi’s world, as it’s impossible to forget Gilliam’s, especially with familiar phrases like “pointed stick” coming out of nowhere on occasion. Hold onto the love you’ll feel when you hear them, but fall just as hard for this new creation, as well. If you do, you’ll have a good time.

Bad Monkey Series Review

August 13, 2024 (updated August 13, 2024) Published by Shari K. Green

“Bad Monkey” is based on the novel of the same name, written by Carl Hiassen. It’s a comedic crime thriller, as is the show, which… has a great soundtrack! The title says a lot. It should say a severely underused monkey and a somewhat bad show, but okay, I won’t be that harsh. It’s just not enough of cute Crystal the Monkey from “Hangover 2” and “Night at the Museum” and more of the same from Vince Vaughn, who plays Andrew Yancy.

It Ends With Us Movie Review

August 8, 2024 (updated August 8, 2024) Published by JMcNaughton

“It Ends With Us” is about abuse inside the family — domestic violence — and shows that you can make it stop. Refuse to be a victim and stand up to the abuser. If it just didn’t lean into the ‘cutesy’ initial romance and the unrealistic situations — you might think the movie was saying something important… Read more It Ends With Us Movie Review

The Irish people are very proud of their country, and if you don’t know that, after watching this extremely uncommon film, you will. As soon as “Kneecap” begins, director Rick Peppiatt hardly gives you time to catch your breath. Read more Kneecap Movie Review

Omnivore AppleTV+ Series Review

July 23, 2024 (updated July 24, 2024) Published by Shari K. Green

I usually don’t give 100% to what I watch because how could anything be perfect? I’ve handed them out from time to time, but not often. However, “Omnivore,” narrated by the famous chef René Redzepi of Noma, is another animal. It’s the perfect dish, no matter how you serve it. Read more Omnivore AppleTV+ Series Review

Twisters Movie Review

July 17, 2024 (updated July 17, 2024) Published by Shari K. Green

If you saw the movie “Twister,” directed by Jan de Bont, starring Bill Paxton, Helen Hunt, Cary Elwes and Phillip Seymour Hoffman, go into “Twisters” knowing one thing. There are only a few respectable differences between the two. Director Lee Isaac Chung, from “Manari,” is good at storytelling. This film has no carry-over actors from the first film, and the story veers from people wanting to study tornadoes to people wishing to tame them… make them vanish before they destroy everything in their path. Chung does an excellent job of showing that distinction.

Fly Me to the Moon Movie Review

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

“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 Fly Me to the Moon Movie Review
