I try my best to avoid spoilers or discourse about a piece of media before I review it. But I already know that I’m the odd one out. Because I have no particularly strong issues with Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania—and the internet seems to have quite a simmering hatred.
Lightyear is a movie I didn’t want. I count on Pixar to do new things, and in my mind, Toy Story ended with its third installment, and there shouldn’t be more of it. And no, I haven’t seen the fourth one. But now that I’ve watched Lightyear, I shouldn’t have doubted Pixar as much as I did.
Nightbooks has a killer premise. It’s a modernized take on the Hansel and Gretel story that retains its disturbing and nightmarish aspects. It once again highlights how you can do stories for younger audiences that still maintain fear.
Artemis Fowl Is An Abysmally Bad Watch Artemis Fowl is a travesty. It is an insult to those that we’re excited about it, those that had hope for it, and is simply a bad watch. And, yes, I’m a fan of the books, and, also yes, I was disappointed with how poorly they adapted it….
If you haven’t already seen Wonder Woman, see it … now. We saw it on the 1st and again on the 3rd. Can’t wait to see it a third time. It’s an action packed, fun super hero movie with a great message – for everyone, not just girls. Patty Jenkins (the director) did an excellent…

It’s true: we all have our demons…some more than others. How do you measure evil? And how can you pinpoint who’s truly wicked in a fog of lies and deceit? Alexandre Aja’s film, Horns (2014), poses these questions and much more in this new dark comedy with Daniel Radcliffe as the leading man. Horns is…
Guys…why did I decide to watch this movie? I mean, listen…it was on Hulu. You know, I was having one of those nights where I was just scrolling and scrolling. “Oooh, this looks interesting. Let’s click on it.” And what ensued was pure horror. Not even the good kind of horror. This was bad. Just…
Meanwhile, in Spain, people are probably sacrificing their souls to the devil instead of watching this film. People are setting themselves on fire and running through traffic instead of watching this film. I wish someone had told me that I would rather jump off of a cliff than sit through this film. Anyway, Deranged (2012) follows…
Yo, they got SPOILERS below! None of the Riddick movies were ever big blockbusters. They never held the financial weight of an Iron Man or Twilight film, but the series has done something that even the most amazing science fiction universes (Firefly…to name one) have not been able to pull off: it has survived in this…
It is a commonly held belief in the film industry that “science fiction” equals “multimillion-dollar budget.” While in many cases this is proven to be true, there are always some exceptions. Enter The Bay, a little jewel released in 2012. This movie comes to us from the brilliant minds of Barry Levinson (The Natural, Rain…
