Movie Review: Dune: Part Two

Watch the SPOILER review on YouTube Continuing where the first “Dune” left off, the sequel once again delivers more of what was great about the first film, along with more of what didn’t work, and that includes more of just “more” as the three-hour runtime starts to feel like an eternity. Like the first film,… Read More »

Movie Review: Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3

Watch the SPOILER review on YouTube Despite the mediocre villain and the uninspiring plot, this film is still an emotional ride thanks to the character moments that pay off many plot points, some going all the way back to the first film.

As it has been with the other more recent films, Daniel Craig’s portrayal of James Bond is what carries the movie. And once again, it succeeds. His Bond has a quiet strength mixed with a… Read More »

Movie Review: Guardians of the Galaxy (3D)

Very entertaining, due to an almost perfect mix of humor, action and emotional moments. The plot moves along briskly, introducing a lot of people and places. If fact, the previous Marvel Cinematic Universe films are barely referenced, so almost everything here seems fresh. Chris Pratt’s Star-Lord is extremely likable, and can easily alternate between comedic… Read More »
