In the last 20 years, Chris McKay has won my heart. He became one of my favorite directors. His humor and mastery over complex narratives make him a standout among filmmakers. Chris McKay directed Robot Chicken, The Lego Movie, and The Tomorrow War. Enter the collaboration of a lifetime: the American gem, Nicholas Cage. My fandom with the actor goes back to me as a little boy, about … Continue reading Renfield (2023) Spoiler-Free Review
Guardians of the Galaxy Performance Marvel Studios may not have made as much money as they wanted on opening weekend, but a domestic debut of $118 million is nothing to scoff at. Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3 is a winner nonetheless. In its second week, it’s holding with a box office gross of $59 million. It’s one of the best in the trilogy, superseding the first film in terms of emotional impact and character development. It’s written and directed by James Gunn, the current DC … Continue reading Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 Spoiler-Free Review

The Super Mario Bros. Movie boasts a magnificent story that stays true to the source material. The First Live Action Video Game Adaptation “This Ain’t No Game” was the tagline for the 1993 Super Mario Bros. movie. Not sure what the marketing department was thinking at the time, but it was counterintuitive and an omen of things to come. With a troublesome production and over … Continue reading Super Marios Bros. Movie (2023) Spoiler-Free Review
The Night Watchmen (2017) is a horror-comedy about a group of immature security guards tasked with fighting an army of vampires. It’s a goofy story with a nice blend of action and bizarre humor. The interaction between the security guards is over-the-top fun. It’s a hilarious, raunchy narrative that parodies traditional vampire tropes. Dialogue is written like a series of extended skits on a late-night television … Continue reading The Night Watchmen (2017) Review
Didn’t expect to have such a good time watching this. Marlon Wayans is no doubt an amazing comedian, but his Netflix projects tend to be a toss-up. The Curse of Bridge Hollow is funny, family friendly, and has a good dose of action. Starring Marlon Wayans, Priah Ferguson, and Kelly Rowland. The film is a call back to Disney original movies released during Halloween in … Continue reading The Curse of Bridge Hollow (2022) Review
The title of this movie is downright ridiculous. One must admire the courage to market a production called Uncle Peckerhead. This is an over-the-top horror comedy available to stream at no cost on Tubi. Commercials included of course. The story is as bonkers as the name suggests. An aspiring punk band makes a deal with a stranger to drive them to a gig, only to … Continue reading Uncle Peckerhead (2020) Review
Netflix produces a handful of poor-quality films. Day Shift is a welcome exception to the trend. Starring Jamie Foxx as Bud Jablonski, a loving father who works for a group of covert vampire hunters. This is an action comedy, so don’t expect logical decisions or realistic dialogue. The movie is jampacked with ultraviolent fight scenes. It is balanced by the humor between Bud and his partner Seth … Continue reading Day Shift (2022) Review
October is a few months away, and the season of the witch is nigh. Horror fans are no doubt itching to watch content filled with gore, jump scares, and supernatural creatures. Clowns often get a bad reputation in the media. Partly due to real-life serial killers who used this disguise in addition to creeps trying to lure kids into the woods back in 2016. Since … Continue reading Top 6 Killer Clowns You Have to Watch
I’m at the point in my life where I can gauge the quality of a film from the preview trailer. I recommend you go into Thor: Love and Thunder, with relatively low expectations. Even so, this did not quell my disappointment. The villain, Gorr the God Butcher, is an inappropriate choice for the narrative. Thus, creating a tonal conflict that plagued the entire story. This entry in the Thor … Continue reading Thor: Love & Thunder (2022) Review
