Movie Review: The New Mutants (2020)

2.5/5 Reviewed February 28, 2021 Fox’s last mutant film before the rights went back to Disney, this one is…just meh. A group of teenage mutants are locked up and getting treatment in an isolated facility when they start seeing their nightmares come to life. It was an attempt to mix some horror and superhero elements

Movie Review: Blockers (2018)

Reviewed February 27, 2021 A surprisingly well-made and wholesome teen coming of age comedy, this is kind of like a gender-swapped American Pie mixed with Superbad, and better than both IMO. Three high school seniors decide to lose their virginity on prom night, and one parent for each (with convenient massive personality issue) decides to

Movie Review: Zombieland: Double Tap (2019)

Movie Review: The Presidio (1988)

3.5/5 Reviewed Feb 23, 2021 An under-looked murder mystery from the late 80s starring Sean Connery and a young MARK HARMON, as well as Meg Ryan. Connery (Army Colonel) and Harmon (San Francisco detective and former MP under Connery) are forced to team up to investigate a series of murders that span a military base

Movie Review: The Shape of Water (2017)

Reviewed Feb 16, 2021 Guillermo del Toro’s multi-Oscar winning fantasy romance is the story of a mute janitor finding and falling in love with an aquatic creature, set in the backdrop of a US research facility during the early cold war. It’s…genre-bending insanity, not for the faint of heart or those unwilling to experience a

Movie Review: The Dark Crystal (1982)

Reviewed Feb 9, 2021 Jim Henson’s trippy fantasy film starring some of the most nightmarish puppets you’ll ever see, this is certainly a very strange watch. In a world on the brink of apocalypse, a young Gelfling named Jen is tasked with reuniting the Dark Crystal or else it could mean eternal darkness. It’s pretty
