Watch the SPOILER review on YouTube An entertaining film that doesn’t have very many highs or lows and mostly skates-by somewhere in the middle. The plot is fairly straightforward and doesn’t diverge much from what could be inferred from the trailers. While that is fine on its own, it means there’s very little in regards… Read More »

Since I’m selective about what I see in the theater, consider this my least favorite films of the year. A deciding factor on where a movie ends up on this list is how willing I am to rewatch it. (Or in this case, if I was forced to rewatch some of these.) Watch the more… Read More »
Watch the SPOILER review on YouTube After over a decade, “Avatar” returns, once again pushing visual effects to a new level.

Watch the SPOILER review on YouTube A mediocre film that brings together the “Jurassic World” and “Jurassic Park” franchises that can’t overcome ridiculously over the top action, lame dinosaurs and not-so-intimidating human villains. The plot at its heart is flimsy, but the execution ramps it up to eleven to cover this fact. The two storylines… Read More »
