The Liquidator Review
It has been a while since I’ve reviewed a movie from China, the trailer for The Liquidator was enough to get me off my ass and check it out during this holiday dead zone for film. The Liquidator is a story about a criminal psychologist (Deng Chao) and a forensic fingerprint expert(Cecilia Liu) who work… Read more

December 27, 2006…the film was Black Christmas…it was the last time I let a film beat me and I walked out of the movie before the ending. 4,021 days since I’ve walked out and today…the streak is over. Read more

Society Reviews Top 10 Best Movies Of 2017
Now that I have dug through all the trash, it’s time for the best films of 2017. I’ll be honest, I didn’t feel like I ‘loved’ as many films in 2017 as compared to 2016 but that doesn’t mean there wasn’t good to great films in the year. I’m pretty positive that there will be… Read more

It’s that time of the year again, for me to take out 12 months of frustration on the worst pieces of trash that took a minimum of 20 hours out of my life. Now I have to note that there were a lot of bad movies in 2017 but only a select handful of them… Read more

Columbus (2017) Review: A Visual Love Letter To Ohio
I don’t always get to watch stylish artsy crap, but I can safely say that Columbus is one the most authentic visual love letters to a city (Columbus, Indiana) I’ve seen in some time and earns a spot as one of my top films of the years. Read more

Darkest Hour Review: Gary Oldman’s Career-Defining Moment
Gary Oldman’s interpretation of Winston Churchill is one of the best historical captures we have seen in years. Along with the great Cinematography by Bruno Delbonnel who captures the tensions of war and debate visually with dramatic panning/perspective shots, Darkest Hour is Oldman’s career-defining moment as well as a great story of leadership in the… Read more

Pitch Perfect 3 Review: A Top 5 Worst Film Of The Year
I’ve already seen multiple reviewers claiming that females deserve better than Pitch Perfect 3, to that I say, if the women who made this movie spent as much time on quality filmmaking as they do on their Twitter accounts, maybe you wouldn’t have gotten a top 5 worst film of the year. Read more

Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri Review: Oscar Bait For Movie Buffs
As far as the rest of the film, Frances McDormand is great and she deserves the award recognization that she is getting. Woody Harrelson is rarely ever bad in film and he does a good job playing a questionable cop. The acting is stellar, the writing here is confusing because the narrative is completely conflicting. I was pretty… Read more

Jumanji Welcome to the Jungle Review: A Solid Video Game Movie
The script is well thought out as they manage to keep things simple and interesting. Playing the rules of a game, they establish each player has only had three lives before dying and outside of one ‘heroic’ scene, don’t bend the rules of the game. This adds much-needed tension when players no longer have any… Read more

Downsizing Review: Fumbled An Interesting Premise
The best way to describe Downsizing is that someone took an interesting concept and fumbled it at the 10-yard line. There is a movie here that the audience wants to see, but the movie we got is one nobody asked for. The only positive thing here is the performance of Hong Chau, whose humor comes… Read more

Star Wars The Last Jedi Review: The Movie The Media Won’t Admit Sucks
Star Wars The Last Jedi is a dud, but the biggest problem here is that if Disney after buying 21st Century Fox is going to use the same filmmaking model with all of their properties that they have used for Marvel and Star Wars film, the film and television industry is heading to a (pun… Read more

Suburbicon Review: A Movie Where Black People Are Props
Damien Straker from Impulse Gamer has the perfect summary of this film “Suburbicon is as though Get Out was made by silly White people and it was terrible. Who the hell would want to watch that?” Judging by the box office…no one. Read more

Mother! (2017) Review: A Movie With No Story
Mother! Doesn’t have a story, it is basically a series of events that happen and if you have no idea about the in your face biblical references that are being thrown on the screen, you will sit there in either a constant state of confusion or convincing yourself that the film is deeper than it… Read more

Last Flag Flying Review: Heartwarming and Heartbreaking
The core of this story is grief over the loss of a loved one and while the film captures the emotional pain of past choice, it doesn’t quite have the impact to be as memorable as they were hoping. With that said Amazon Studios is building a solid catalog of films as Last Flag Flying… Read more

Roman J. Israel, Esq. Review: Washington Overshadowed By A Poor Screenplay
Denzel Washington is outstanding but that really goes without saying. The problem is the writing from Dan Gilroy, who tried to paste together a film with two central plots; Ethics and Activism. However, he doesn’t do enough to sell either point and the movie suffers from it. Read more
-
Justice League Review: A Directorial Mess Of A Movie
The venom directed towards DC I believe is overblown. After Suicide Squad, Wonder Woman, and now Justice League, is it clear that the films have improved and while the critics are leading the backlash, the audiences have been in favor. With the said, I think Warner Bros needs to have a sit down about how… Read more
-
Murder on the Orient Express Review: A Good Weekend Rental
Sadly if you have watched the 1974 version, then you have once again already seen this one. The biggest problem here is that the detective work from Poirot is not terribly exciting and when you finally get the answer that you have waited for, it is a major cop-out which makes the entire set up… Read more

A Bad Moms Christmas Review: Kathryn Hahn Carries Another Terrible Film
gain I find myself going the film probably would have been better making the center focus Kathryn Hahn & Susan Sarandon and not literally everyone else but for the love of God, these franchise needs to die and Thank God they won’t make enough money to do another one. Read more
