Thank god for Jason Statham. Maybe he is the same guy in all of his movies, but he does that guy better than anyone else. He is cool, funny, ripped, and charismatic all at the same time, which makes him perfect for roles like this. I was really happy not to see Dwayne “The […]

A Quiet Place: A Winner Across the Board

I have said it before but I will say it again. We are living in the era of horror movies and they keep coming almost on weekly basis. Surprisingly a good number of them are really good films. After GET OUT and IT broke box office records last year, A QUIET PLACE is doing the same this […]
RAMPAGE: For The Transformers Fans

If you liked the TRANSFORMERS franchise then RAMPAGE may very will be right up your alley. The movie beats the last couple of entries in that franchise in terms of pure escapism and fun but that is not saying much. It is still one big dumb loud blockbuster that offers nothing new. It is hard […]
Chappaquiddick – Fortune Favors the Powerful

I have always wanted to know the truth behind the well-known Ted Kennedy car accident. I guess we will never know the full truth behind this infamous and unfortunate event that largely killed Ted Kennedy’s presidential chances, but CHAPPAQUIDDICK, an admirable effort from director John Curran, provides some very good insight and perspective on […]
Tomb Raider Review: Is Hollywood Running Out Of Ideas?

It is official, Hollywood is running out of ideas in a bad way. It looks like the sky is raining remakes on weekly basis and most of them are not even worth the time. This effort is not as bad as The Mummy but it is largely familiar. There are a few good moments here […]
The Strangers: Prey at Night – More Blood, Less Brains

It was really a matter of time. We are getting a sequel to every successful horror movie ever made these days and that is because we are living in the era of the horror genre. A well made scary movie makes a lot of money and draws a lot of crowds and the production companies […]
‘IT’ Review: Scary, Funny, and Emotional

So far 2017 is considered one of Hollywood’s worst box office years in recent memory with many big budget action and comedy movies completely flopping while costing their studios millions of dollars. Against all odds and expectations, 2017 is proving to be the year where horror movies are reclaiming the box office glory of the […]
‘Pilgrimage’ Review: Solid Talent Both In Front of and Behind the Camera

Pilgrimage is a good movie that could have been great if there was bigger budget. But at the same time, there is no big audience out there for a film like this so it’s difficult to blame the investors for keeping things small and place their bets instead on the talents of the crew in […]
‘Annabelle: Creation’ Review: The Horror Genre is Alive and Well

Not every genre movie is original or unique and there is nothing wrong with one just done right. There are many horror releases every year, but most of them are not very effective or memorable. The expectations after the release of the very original and successful Get Out earlier this year were low, but Annabelle: […]
‘The House’ Review: The trend of sub-par comedies continues

Let’s face it, 2017 has been and still is a pretty bad year for comedies so far. Chips, Snatched, and Fist Fight all underwhelmed and under-performed. The House might be a tad better because of a few laugh-out moments and the charms of the likes of Will Ferrell and Amy Poehler, but it doesn’t do […]
