Fighting with My Family Review: The Story About A Wrestling Family Is A Real Champion

February 22, 2019

Being a 24-year fan of professional wrestling, there was no way I wasn’t watching this film. For those who aren’t in the know when it comes to the world of rasslin’, Saraya-Jade Bevis, who is known in WWE by her ring name Paige, was essentially a child prodigy in the industry. Paige was an underground wrestling sensation as a teenager as her family ran a wrestling show and she was featured prominently. In 2011, she received her big break with the WWE at the age of 18. A few years later she became the youngest women’s champion in the company’s history and it looked like the sky was the limit. … More Fighting with My Family Review: The Story About A Wrestling Family Is A Real Champion

Skyscraper Review: Dumb Fun That Is Far More Dumb

July 13, 2018

Some films require you to turn your brain off to enjoy, this film confiscates your brain before you enter the theatre.

Rampage (2018) Review: Another Trash Video Game Movie

April 12, 2018

I don’t know why Hollywood acts like making a decent movie based on a video game is the equivalent to a torture trap created by Jigsaw. After the complete bore that was Tomb Raider, the next Hollywood cash grab on the queue is Rampage. If you don’t remember Rampage, it was basically a game where a giant wolf, gorilla, and lizard destroy a bunch of buildings in various cities. So it took FOUR people to write a movie that makes its own plot irrelevant so fast, they could have just started the film at the last 30 minutes and it would have made just as much sense. … More Rampage (2018) Review: Another Trash Video Game Movie

Jumanji Welcome to the Jungle Review: A Solid Video Game Movie

December 21, 2017

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 room for error when it comes to survival. … More Jumanji Welcome to the Jungle Review: A Solid Video Game Movie

Baywatch (2017) Review: A Sad Cash Grab

May 26, 2017

There is no way around it, Baywatch is amiss on almost every level. Rock’s likable charm can’t save this film and honestly, he’s much better in action films than trying to save BS comedies like this. Zac Efron has his name attached to another stinker, and I’m not sure any of the women actually won being in his film, except Kelly Rohrbach on the basis you actually know who she is now. Baywatch is a sad cash grab that makes sad cash grabs look bad. … More Baywatch (2017) Review: A Sad Cash Grab
