Some movies just don’t make a big impression, so here’s a quick take on what I thought.
Another entry in the hilarious Trailer Park Boys series. I loved being back at Sunnyvale Trailer Park with Julian, Ricky and Bubbles and the rest of the cast of characters who are all back. I didn’t think it was as funny as some of the previous seasons and a few of the characters felt forgotten…
The sequel to the awesomely fun Dead Snow that proved that Nazi zombies can be outrageous comedic horror. This movie is just bonkers with all of the set pieces and story elements taken to a whole new level. You have to know going in that this movie doesn’t care about narrative, this is over the…
A pretty decent B horror movie that actually looks fantastic. The acting is exactly what you’d expect but I was really impressed by how well it was filmed and the locations. There’s this weird romantic dynamic to begin but the film really picks up in the second act with some fun action. The finale however…
A pretty charming, animated family film with an alright story. Exposition is never something that goes well in a kids movie and the story is just interesting enough to keep you interested. The voice acting is well done but I just couldn’t find a way into the story to really hook me. Recommend? I know…
Made by the team of the grossly under appreciated horror You’re Next and a well made slow burn thriller. There are places where the narrative falls flat but there is so much to like here that those times are easily overlooked. Dan Stevens and Maika Monroe, from It Follows, are compelling leads and the score…
Citizenfour won the Oscar for Best Documentary Feature and it’s easy to see why. The information uncovered by Edward Snowden is shocking but what I found even more interesting was the process shown of what a whistleblower can go through. Snowden at first seems almost cocky about what he’s done and then how quickly the…
The world that’s created in this post apocalyptic drama is so unique and impressive. The story is a little slow but well plotted and the cast is good from top to bottom. Michael Shannon particularly stands out and stunning visuals made me really enjoy this one. Recommend? Absolutely for any Sci Fi and post apocalyptic…
I liked this movie but it never really lives up to it’s impressive cast. A main story about crime and family that gets too caught up in its side stories and meaningless characters. Clive Owen and Billy Crudup really put in good work but are letdown by a weak script. Recommend? Yes, but there are…
A pretty standard and mediocre crime thriller with decent performances and an alright story. Everything about this movie is just okay and never really strays one way or the other. It wasn’t great but it wasn’t horrible either. Recommend? I guess…maybe.
Movies like this are why I started this project in the first place. Frank is an examination of life and what makes us all different. A movie so original and odd that I doubt it will be on many radars but deserves an audience. A film about music and the creative process at his core,…
