Movie Review: John Wick: Chapter 4

Watch the SPOILER review on YouTube Despite a slow start, this film eventually becomes another solid action flick and one of the better films in the franchise. Things move fairly slowly in the beginning, and there’s not much indication of what the plot is supposed to be. And when we do finally get to the… Read More »

Movie Review: Shazam! Fury of the Gods

Watch the SPOILER review on YouTube A fun follow-up that has a strong emotional core, but trio of villains with vaguely-defined powers and motivations hamper the much of the film. The movie tries to balance out the time spent between the six members of the Shazam family in both their human forms and their super-powered… Read More »

Movie Review: Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania

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 »

Movie Review: Avatar: The Way of Water (3D)

But, despite the breathtaking imagery, the overly-long plot doesn’t break much new ground and in fact repeats quite a few themes from the first film. As expected, the movie is beautiful to look at.… Read More »

Movie Review: Black Panther: Wakanda Forever

Watch the SPOILER review on YouTube Thanks to strong acting and a story that properly pay tribute the life of Chadwick Boseman, the latest “Black Panther” film overcomes a long runtime and choppy pacing to deliver an entertaining experience. The story quickly dives into the untimely death of Bozeman, and eerily mirrors it with the… Read More »

Movie Review: Black Adam

Watch the SPOILER review on YouTube A mediocre superhero film that introduces too many characters and concepts in too short of an amount of time, and is only saved by Dwayne Johnson’s physical prowess and charisma (which is unfortunately toned down.) Despite its ties the “Shazam!”, this film mostly glosses over that connection and moves… Read More »

Movie Review: Nope

Watch the SPOILER review on YouTube With great looking visuals and a strong concept, “Nope” is unable to live up to its lofty goals due to a disjointed narrative and characters that take too long to endear themselves to the audience. The plot is relatively simple, but there’s a strange execution to it, with chapter… Read More »

Movie Review: Thor: Love and Thunder

Watch the SPOILER review on YouTube A mildly entertaining film with a poorly executed plot, mediocre action sequences, love story that never quite connects, and hit-and-miss humor. After a decent start, the film quickly goes off course as we catch up with Thor after his most recent appearance in “Avengers: Endgame.” The pacing here is… Read More »
