“Maleficent: Mistress of Evil” is a sequel to the first Disney switch-up to “Sleeping Beauty” called “Maleficent”. The idea of looking at the fairy tale story from a different perspective was well-received. Which is to say – it made a ton of money. Read more

Zombieland: Double Tap Movie Review
“Zombieland: Double Tap” is the result of a ten-year wait cycle – a sequel based on the 2009 movie “Zombieland”. The original was a clever and irreverent ‘Zom-Com’ about four very different people who band together to fight off zombies. It had elements of tension and horror, but only to further the goofy story line and give the characters good quips (example: “Nut up or Shut up”). This new movie takes the same fun and self-aware group and gives them new people to meet, new zombies to fight, and new adventures to have. Read more

‘Gemini Man’ is an incredible action film that has a lot going for it. It’s has all the ingredients needed to be a weekend blockbuster hit as long as you don’t look too closely. By that I mean there are some problems with the technology. Read more
Lucy in the Sky Movie Review
“Lucy in the Sky” is a well-meaning, yet ultimately unsuccessful attempt at asking DEEP QUESTIONS about Earthlings ability to handle outer space. The idea is that an astronaut can have a space-bound experience that forever changes them into a person who can never find meaning in the normal humdrum way of life. Read more
The Addams Family Movie Review
“The Addams Family” started out as the bizarre hand-drawn comic stylings of creator Charles Addams (in the 1930’s). It was later turned into a TV show, and then still later it became the basis of a couple of movies. So, it is only right and fitting that is now once again an animated comic movie (but it lost the ‘hand-drawn’ aspect). Read more

‘Where’s My Roy Cohn’ has a lot to say about who Cohn was and who he, very unfortunately, shaped.

Joker – Movie Review
One thing I feel I can safely predict about this movie is that there will be no better achievement in acting this year. I thoroughly enjoyed other performances this year, but due to his efforts here, three-time Oscar nominee, Joaquin Phoenix, will no longer be referred to as only a nominee.
