• Phoenix Forgotten Review: A Pleasant Mockumentary

    Phoenix Forgotten Review: A Pleasant Mockumentary

    The film is pretty short, only 85 minutes. Normally this would get under my skin, but here the film doesn’t stretch itself too thin and remains effective. Phoenix Forgotten while not a top 10 film of 2017 is one of my favorite and most pleasant surprises of the year. Read more

    Unforgettable (2017) Review: Beating A Rotting Corpse

    Unforgettable is what happens when you beat a dead horse and you aren’t even creative enough to use a different stick. Read more

  • Free Fire Review: A Failed Tarantino Attempt

    Free Fire Review: A Failed Tarantino Attempt

    Free Fire fancies itself as a Tarantino-like film, but the film manages to fail to match every aspect of filmmaking that made Tarantino a success. If it wasn’t for a decent opening, I would rate this film much worse, as it is Free Fire is one of the worst examples of wasted potential in some… Read more

  • The Fate of the Furious Review: Rock vs Vin Diesel Is More Entertaining

    The Fate of the Furious Review: Rock vs Vin Diesel Is More Entertaining

    The Fate of the Furious is a step back from the last few films, mostly due to the fact that there is a more interesting story going on behind the camera than in front of it. Read more

  • The Case for Christ Review: A Christian Story For Mainstream Audiences

    The Case for Christ Review: A Christian Story For Mainstream Audiences

    The real Lee Strobel shortly quit his job as a reporter and became a pastor with his wife, the story of his life is a fascinating ride from non-believer to believer that not only delivered a bestselling book but a compelling film. The Case For Christ is a story that can be embraced by mainstream… Read more

  • Going in Style Review: Cinematically Going Out Sad

    Going in Style Review: Cinematically Going Out Sad

    Considering how close to death these actors are in real life, they aren’t doing their legacy a favor by being in movies like this. Going In Style is a half-assed revenge tale of a bunch of bitter old man who really doesn’t have anyone but themselves to blame. Read more

  • The Prison Review: For Those Who Love Cops And Corruption

    The Prison Review: For Those Who Love Cops And Corruption

    The film is a throwback to classic action crime movies meaning you won’t see anything you haven’t already seen before, plus the over the top ending takes away from an otherwise enjoyable film. For all it’s ups and downs, The Prison is a middle of a road action flick for people who favor crime and… Read more

  • Ghost In The Shell (Guest Review Ft. JasonsMovieBlog)

    Ghost In The Shell (Guest Review Ft. JasonsMovieBlog)

    Ghost in the Shell is a step in the right direction for Hollywood in adapting anime movies into live-action features films, opening up the possibilities for better translations and erasing bad memories of some past endeavors (see Dragonball: Evolution). So, I just have this left to say…. I am Jason and I give me consent… Read more

  • Wilson (2017) Review: An Unfunny Downer Film

    Wilson (2017) Review: An Unfunny Downer Film

    Wilson is a downer project that isn’t nearly as funny as it thinks it is. A Drinking game without the game brings more humor than this film. Read more

  • CHiPs (2017) Review: A Hit Or Miss R Rated Comedy

    CHiPs (2017) Review: A Hit Or Miss R Rated Comedy

    This isn’t the comedy of the year or even a smash hit, it just isn’t as bad as I thought it was. Dax Shepard put a lot of effort into this film and overall it was a decent effort. The chemistry works, the jokes are hit and miss, and Vincent D’Onofrio is never a waste… Read more

  • Life (2017) Review: What An Ending!

    Life (2017) Review: What An Ending!

    Life was on pace to be a decent B movie with high budget effects, but the ending to this film was such an epic fail (in terms of the character’s plan, not the writing) that I had to give them an extra star just for writing such a ballsy ending. Read more

  • Power Rangers Review: Rather Watch The 1997 Film

    Power Rangers Review: Rather Watch The 1997 Film

    Will Power Rangers fans enjoyed this film? Probably not, you’ll spend all your time nitpicking things that aren’t like the original series. Will your average moviegoers like this film? Honestly, yes. This is not a great movie by any stretch, but it is watchable and its better than the 1995 counterpart which wasn’t a hard… Read more

  • Gifted Review: Sass, Swearing, & A Strong Family

    Gifted Review: Sass, Swearing, & A Strong Family

    Gifted is cliché at times and tends to go the route of hoping an adorable little girl can win your hearts with sass and occasional swearing. While she may not completely win you over, the film empathizes the importance of a strong stable family and for that, it is worthy of a favorable rating. Read more

  • Personal Shopper Review: Terrible Editing Kills A Good Effort

    Personal Shopper Review: Terrible Editing Kills A Good Effort

    When it comes to Personal Shopper, there is a lot to like about this film, but you really have to question the decision-making in the writing. The ending is pretty bad as it serves to ask more questions that will never be answered and feels very out of place with the other 100 minutes. The… Read more

  • Lion (Guest Review Ft. Movie Man Jackson)

    Lion (Guest Review Ft. Movie Man Jackson)

    It may be the editing, which isn’t perfect in the first half, but adequate. In the second half, elapsed time isn’t clearly defined, and some character introductions/relationships/reintroductions are a little clunky as a result. Chemistry between Patel and Rooney Mara is average. The scenes they share extensively together (not a ton) is when Lion becomes… Read more

  • The Belko Experiment Review: Low Expectation Fun Thriller

    The Belko Experiment Review: Low Expectation Fun Thriller

    The Belko Experiment ultimately delivers on a simple premise, workplace violence turned up to 100. With low expectations, the film is a fun thriller worthy of seeing with a few friends or enjoying in the comfort of your own home. James Gunn gets credit for trying to do something different like with most Blumhouse Films.… Read more

  • Beauty and the Beast (Guest Review Ft. KeithLovesMovies)

    Beauty and the Beast (Guest Review Ft. KeithLovesMovies)

    Overall, this was a good adaptation of the animated classic that stayed true to the source material. While the film took advantage of its budget, the overproduction of the musical numbers often did more harm than good. The film depended on the relationship between Belle and the Beast’s but it wasn’t the most believable because… Read more

  • Manchester by the Sea (Guest Review ft. ScreenZealots)

    Manchester by the Sea (Guest Review ft. ScreenZealots)

    While it’s a genuine look at the grieving process, I wanted this movie to be so much better than it actually is. I feel Affleck’s incredible performance is clouding everyone’s opinion of this film and if they’d simply take a step back, they’d notice the multitude of aspects that don’t work, like classical music used… Read more
