SUPERMAN MOVIE REVIEW Most audiences no longer have a problem ‘believing a man can fly' in movies.

JURASSIC WORLD REBIRTH MOVIE REVIEW Seven of these Jurassic movies now. SEVEN.

SORRY, BABY MOVIE REVIEW Most films that deal with overcoming trauma do it either as it being represented as a growing black gulf of evil (see at least half the horror films made in the last 5-10 years), or with a good deal of saccharine. The debut film from writer/director/star Eva Victor is something new. […]
F1 MOVIE REVIEW In this day and age of trademarked products being made into gigantic Hollywood films, it's at least a little surprising that Formula 1 Racing took this long to get into the act.

M3GAN 2.0 MOVIE REVIEW Although the 2022 horror film M3gan was certainly a hit, it left a lot to be desired. Straddling the gap between wanting to be a horror film and wanting to be a campy comedy with neither foot firmly planted made for a very uneven film. But one thing that did work […]

28 YEARS LATER MOVIE REVIEW With 28 Days Later‘s explosive success, Danny Boyle's Oscar win with Slumdog Millionaire, and Alex Garland's own film career, it's not entirely surprising to see these filmmakers go back to the zombie well. 28 Years Later is the third film in the horror franchise and you guessed it, takes 28 […]
