Movie Review: The Matrix Resurrections (2021)

2.25/5 Reviewed December 29, 2021 A franchise that certainly didn’t need a resurrection, but parent company Warner Brothers insisted – and threatened to do it without the creators, the Wachowskis, so we get this convoluted mess of a film.

Movie Review: Monster Hunter (2020)

2.25/5 Reviewed December 6, 2021 Another poor video game adaptation, this one is about a group of soldiers transported to another world, one where giant monsters live.
