Movie Review: The Legend of Zorro (2005)

3.25/5 Reviewed November 25, 2021 The sequel to the solid Mask of Zorro, this one is an entertaining western adventure taking place 10 years after the original. Antonio Banderas returns as Zorro, now a family man fighting a corrupt French count who has taken his love, all on the eve of California’s statehood. It’s a

Movie Review: Logan’s Run (1976)

2.75/5 Reviewed November 24, 2021 Sci-fi film from the legendary 70s runs of dystopia and space science fiction (seriously, look up like 1974-1981 in sci-fi film). Logan lives in a sealed city where nobody is allowed to live beyond 30; he plays a major part in that, catching “runners” who try to escape their fate.

Movie Review: Red Notice (2021)

3.25/5 Reviewed November 22, 2021 Heist flick with serious top-heavy star power, as the Rock, Gal Gadot, and Ryan Reynolds play an odd trio fighting each other to steal the three gilded eggs of Cleopatra.

It’s been highly divisive, and I get that. I enjoyed it, but it’s definitely in

Movie Review: Dune (2021)

3.5/5 Reviewed November 14, 2021 *disclaimer: I’ve never read the books and I’ve seen the 80s David Lynch version, but many years ago and thus only somewhat remembered it. From what I’ve read, the book-readers are mostly very pro this version, and people who have not read the books are mostly meh about the film.
