RAYA & THE LAST DRAGON Review – Get Your Tuk-Tuks Out

Posted on March 5, 2021March 5, 2021

I have always felt that these days, Disney-Slash-Pixar titles seem to get all of the attention in the animation game. Which in a way is alright (SOUL, the latest Pixar movie, was my #1 movie of 2020) but there is another aspect to Disney that gets overlooked these days is its Walt Disney Animation Studios department […]

MINARI review – A Slice of Life Presentation

Posted on March 2, 2021March 2, 2021

It isn’t often that a movie can be described as endearing, yet that was the feeling that permeated MINARI (Lee Isaac Chung). The film has a ‘slice of life’ presentation, as it follows a tumultuous period for a Korean family.  Moving from California, we join the family in their car, as they follow a moving […]

A GLITCH IN THE MATRIX review – Free Your Mind

Posted on February 23, 2021February 23, 2021

Ask yourself “Did you want to visit this website?” If you believe that our world might not exist, then your visit might be the result of forces beyond your understanding.  A GLITCH IN THE MATRIX (Rodney Ascher) explores the belief of simulation theory. This idea is not new, and has been a mainstay of recent […]

Ten Decades of Oscars: WINGS (1927)

Posted on February 21, 2021February 21, 2021

Hello! And welcome to a weekly feature I’ll be writing in the run-up to the 2020 Oscars on April 25th. I’m one of those idiots who still buys physical media—often an annual metric tonnage of it—and I’m also one of those idiots who can’t help but be swept up in the politics and the competition […]

Black History Month review – JUST MERCY

Posted on February 18, 2021February 18, 2021

The story of JUST MERCY, directed and co-written by Destin Daniel Cretton (SHORT TERM 12), begins in a forest. A logger looks up at a patch of sky, obscured moments ago by the tree he just fell. This becomes a significant memory. The way the branches are described as dancers in the wind. It’s the […]

JUDAS & THE BLACK MESSIAH Review – Fred Turner is Revolutionary

Posted on February 12, 2021February 15, 2021

A movie I have been waiting to see for quite a long time (I remember seeing a trailer for this last summer when TENET made its theatrical release), JUDAS & THE BLACK MESSIAH finally arrives in release at a very important time in our bizarre, always-changing world. With so many people all over the world […]

BARB & STAR GO TO VISTA DEL MAR – It’s Time For A Holiday!

Posted on February 11, 2021February 11, 2021

I can’t believe that it has been almost a decade since BRIDESMAIDS was released into theatres. A combination of both FREAKS & GEEKS creator Paul Feig’s comedic styling along with Kristen Wiig and Annie Mumulo’s wickedly funny screenplay, I still remember laughing loud and long throughout the picture and revisiting it several times over the […]

THE LITTLE THINGS Review – Denzel + Rami + Jared = Oh My!

Posted on January 29, 2021January 29, 2021

Starring three big-time Oscar winners all with very different personalities, THE LITTLE THINGS is a rare serial killer drama/thriller that I feel like we rarely see from the studio system anymore, though these types of movies mostly starred Denzel Washington in some form; immediate thoughts of THE BONE COLLECTOR and FRAILTY come to mind. There […]

Review – Wolfwalkers – Taking Animation To The Next Level

Posted on January 27, 2021January 27, 2021

WOLFWALKERS came as a very nice surprise, and a movie that I not only watched a second time, but would highly recommend. I was left so interested in the film, I learned that it’s the final entry of a trilogy grown from Celtic folklore (the previous two being the highly acclaimed SONG OF THE SEA […]
