My thoughts and views on the movies I’ve seen. I might not always be right, but here’s what I thought!
The world that John Wick inhabits is one of danger and violence…like, a lot of violence. John Wick is a throw back to the 80’s and 90’s action movies that preferred style over substance, even starring a man, Keanu Reeves, who rose to prominence as an unlikely star during that time. What makes this movie…
There is a vibrance and an energy to Birdman that starts right from the opening frame and really continues to that final look out of the window. A movie that straddles the line between dream and reality, where the camera seems to never leave the actors and one where the actors are given a showcase…
Part crime procedural, part superhero drama, part action series, part The Dark Knight, Marvel’s Daredevil marks the biggest departure from the MCU to date and it’s utterly fantastic. Gritty and dark, it has nothing to do with the Marvel movies we’ve seen to this point which are upbeat and bright, not just in their look…
Off the top, seriously, don’t even waste your time. Going into this movie I had heard all of the negative reviews and that it was awful but being a fan of TMNT since I was a kid I just had to take a chance. I kind of pride myself being able to find something positive…
It’s always strange to me how some films about a real life topic, where the ending is known can still bring about feelings of tension and dread and make you nervous to watch them. I’ve had that experience many times it seems and especially with recent films like United 93 and Zero Dark Thirty. I…
Andrew Jarecki has recently come onto everyone’s radar because of his fascinating 6 part documentary series on HBO, The Jinx, which followed the eccentric Robert Durst in Serial type examination of Durst and his alleged crimes that ultimately ended in…well, if you don’t know just go watch it or read the front page of almost…
The first movie I picked for this project had just come out on Netflix and though it looked pretty cheesy I saw that the producers of Underworld were behind it, it had a very good cast and I went for it. I, Frankenstein is without a doubt one of the worst movies I have ever…
I can confidently say that there is no band like The National and on the same note I can confidently say that I have never seen a music documentary like “Mistaken For Strangers“. Part mockumentary, part autobiography, part musical performance, there are so many pieces to this movie that all fall together to make a…
The science of “Interstellar” is daunting and I can absolutely see it taking away from the overall enjoyment of the film. If your head is hurting from wormholes, relativity, black holes and interstellar travel, believe me you’re not the only one. The science and the movie’s obsession with it is one of the biggest problems…
There’s something you need to know about “Joe” before going in: Nicolas Cage is really good in this movie. Maybe not what you’d expect from his recent performances but in “Joe” he tones down his usual overacting tendencies and gives a great reserved and understated performance as the mentor to an increasingly better Tye Sheridan.…
