Maze Runner The Death Cure: I Kept Wondering When Katniss was Going to Show Up & Declare Them All Divergents (Review)
They say that facts don’t change people’s minds, feelings do. You can make an air-tight logical argument and back it with facts but it will never sway people as much as a meme on Twitter. Maze Runner: The Death Cure understands this and rather than spend time and...
Mom and Dad is a Chaotic Black Comedy Featuring Nicolas Cage’s Best Performance since Kick-Ass (Review)

Cloverfield and 10 Cloverfield Lane are now available for the first time ever on 4K UHD Blu-ray! From producer J.J. Abrams, director Matt Reeves (War For The Planet of The Apes) and director Dan Trachtenberg, check out my reviews for both releases and all the special...
12 Strong Clears Up My Misconceptions about The War in Afghanistan (Review)
Man, am I ever the wrong person to review 12 Strong. I can see that it’s well made but I just don’t get War Movies. I know nothing about guns or missiles or tactics, so it’s like Sci-Fi to me - very badly explained Sci-Fi (with terrible special effects) that...
Paddington 2: Rotten Tomatoes is Right, it Really is That Good (Review)

Phantom Thread is the Perfect Sendoff for Daniel Day-Lewis (Review)
Phantom Thread is supposed to be Day-Lewis’ final film before retiring from acting altogether. Nothing seems more fitting than the acclaimed actor's final film to be with a director that has made some incredible movies. Paul Thomas Anderson and Daniel Day-Lewis are a...
Liam Neeson Takes You On a Pleasant B-Action Movie Ride with ‘The Commuter’ (Review)
When you buy a ticket for The Commuter, you know exactly what you’re paying for. You’re paying not just for an action movie, but a Liam Neeson action movie. You’re paying for a movie released during one of the slowest months of the year during one of the coldest...
Insidious: The last Key is Ambitious & Character Driven but They Put The Scariest Stuff Too Early (Review)
It’s January again, that time of year when everyone’s exhausted and broke from the holidays and nobody feels like going to see anything. What brave movie maker wants to release something then? Stuff that would go straight to DVD otherwise, that’s what. This week...
Downsizing Comes Up Short With Its Ambitions (Review)
When trailers first started coming out for Alexander Payne's latest film, I was definitely intrigued by its premise. The idea of humans opting for a medical procedure that shrinks them down to four inches tall seemed like a possibility for great satire and comedy. ...
