Halloween Knows Where it Came From & Delivers More (Review)
This week I saw Halloween! And this 2018 film was my exposure to the franchise. Apparently this is the eleventh film in the series, so I’ve missed a lot. Though it didn’t feel like I missed anything at all - there was a nice succinct recap of the very first movie...
Halloween is A Terrifying & Timely Return To Form (Review)
In 1978, the horror genre was changed forever when John Carpenter came out with Halloween, but its legacy was followed by a series of sequels and remakes that ranged from watchable (Halloween II, Halloween: H20) to straight-up abysmal (Halloween: Resurrection). But...
Bad Times at The El Royale is Arguably Chris Hemsworth’s Sexiest Movie (Review)
I’ve been wanting to see Bad Times at the El Royale since I saw the trailer. I’m a sucker for films around that time. The decor, the music, the clothes, the cars, I love it all. And you could put Chris Hemsworth on anything and I’ll probably watch it at least once....
Venom Felt Like a DC Movie, In a Good Way, with More Violence & Less Jokes (Review)
Venom has been on my radar for a while. I’ve never read the comics but the trailer got me in one view. Plus I love Tom Hardy. And since I’ve already bought in, it’s been hard to avoid the hype on this one, especially how badly it’s been treated in other reviews....

Venom is as Lazy & Unforgettable as Comic Book Movies Get (Review)
Sony did the right thing by letting Marvel Studios help shape a new Spider-Man and allow it to breathe in its Marvel Cinematic Universe. While Sony is still hush-hush on whether Venom will exist in the same universe as Tom Holland’s Spider-Man, it’s evident about half...
Smallfoot is Entertaining, Energetic & Has Surprising Depth (Review)
I didn’t have high expectations for Smallfoot. It looked like another animated kid’s movie, which usually means something forgettable. Family/Kid’s movies are easily the most forgiving genres - parents don’t care how good the film is because the kids will like it...

First it was Gaynor and March (1937). Next it was Garland and Mason (1954). Then it was Streisand and Kristofferson (1976). Now, we have Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga in the latest version of A Star is Born. There’s no avoiding the buzz surrounding A Star is Born. Take...

Night School Review: The Amount of Kevin Hart Short Jokes is TOO DAMN HIGH
In the past few years, there have been a solid mix of well-written comedies and the cliche and lazy comedies. Director Malcom D. Lee delivered us Girls Trip in 2017, a refreshing and genuinely funny film. When we found out he was directing a comedy with Kevin Hart in...
