The Suicide Squad Movie Review

August 5, 2021 (updated August 5, 2021) Published by JMcNaughton

Opens in theaters on August 5
Also available for streaming on HBO/Max

“The Suicide Squad” is the full-barreled, R-rated, no-holds-barred Love Child resulting from the combination of Writer/Director James Gunn and D.C. Comics. The D.C. Extended Universe of comic-based movies just got a kick-start with a cattle prod to the nether regions. But rather than resulting in a painful experience, this ‘Squad’ takes off at sixty-miles-an-hour into a Gunn-designed world of magnificent mayhem. The gore and violence comes with equal measures of hilarity and movie magic.

Annette Movie Review

August 5, 2021 (updated August 5, 2021) Published by JMcNaughton

“Annette” is perhaps the first ‘art-house/art-pop operatic musical’ type movie. But this might be the final one ever made, too. The idea to make this unusual style of film was a creative leap of faith. However, this leap might be going into the ‘abyss’. The story is portrayed as combination of normal dialog along with singing vocal dialog. Much like in the tradition of many operas, it tells a story of a tragic cycle of fame and failure. The talent to make this movie is quite abundant. The results are sparse. Read more Annette Movie Review

Enemies of the State Movie Review

July 30, 2021 (updated July 30, 2021) Published by Shari K. Green

The new documentary, “Enemies of the State,” starts by giving us some Oscar Wilde, “The truth is rarely pure and never simple.” That’s for sure… and you’ll see it playout here.

The Green Knight – movie review

July 30, 2021 Published by filmernie

Watching The Green Knight some 16 months after it was supposed to premiere at SXSW I can attest that it was well worth the wait.

Jungle Cruise Movie Review

July 30, 2021 (updated July 30, 2021) Published by Shari K. Green

As I do with most Disney films, I had a good time while watching their latest effort, “Jungle Cruise.” I thoroughly enjoyed floating down the Amazon with these adventurous characters as they pushed the limits.

Stillwater – movie review

July 29, 2021 (updated July 30, 2021) Published by filmernie

Adults wanting relief from a summer movie slate that has so far consisted of reboots, remakes, endless sequels and family films should be glad to see this weekend’s offerings which include the drama/thriller Stillwater.

VAL Movie Review

July 23, 2021 (updated August 2, 2021) Published by Shari K. Green

That little jeer! When I hear Val Kilmer’s name, I always think of when ‘Ice,’ his character in “Top Gun,” snaps his teeth at a surprised Maverick (Tom Cruise). That image is burned in my brain. It could be because, with the serious actor that Val Kilmer is, he created a backstory for the presence of his almost non-existent character.

Settlers Movie Review

July 23, 2021 (updated July 23, 2021) Published by Shari K. Green

The release of “Settlers,” written and directed by Wyatt Rockefeller, who has only three directing and writing credits to his name (two of them shorts), couldn’t have been timed better.

Snake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins Movie Review

July 22, 2021 (updated July 22, 2021) Published by JMcNaughton

Snake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins” is based on the HCU (Hasbro Cinematic Universe – if there is such a thing) and is vaguely connected to the other G.I. Joe movies. But this movie is all about the ‘origins’ of the one named “Snake Eyes”. He is an expert in martial arts and now you get to learn his background. They say “Never bring a knife to a gun fight”. This movie goes further — “Never bring an Uzi to a Katana showdown”. Read more

Joe Bell Movie Review

July 22, 2021 (updated July 22, 2021) Published by Shari K. Green

‘Joe Bell’ is about Mark Wahlberg’s character, Joe Bell, on a crusade against bullying, particularly toward people who come out as homosexual, as his son Jaidn (Reid Miller) had. Jaiden was trying to tell his father what he had been going through for the entire school year thus far. Joe tuned him out.
