“I did then what I knew how to do. Now that I know better, I do better.” – Maya Angelou I become more disillusioned as I get older with this idea that just because a studio is involved with one great movie, that any others they’re associated with should automatically be the same. “From the […]Read More

“A fight is not won by one punch or kick. Either learn to endure or hire a bodyguard.” – Bruce Lee After the first movie ended I knew what kind of movie it was; the kind that audiences would love and (jaded) critics would loathe. I was right. And now with the second it elicits […]Read More
“I want to play a game.” – Jigsaw If anyone from Lionsgate ever sees this: PLEASE STOP MAKING SAW MOVIES! Thank you. Sincerely, anyone with a sliver of self-respect and taste. I could make the argument that everything before this point had some validity to its existence. From the original Saw to the much maligned […]Read More
It only took ten years and twenty movies to get here, but finally the lady superheroes of MARVEL get their time to shine. If only that Black Widow movie would get moving already it would be even better. Until then it’s all about Captain Marvel, the hopeful wrench in Thanos’ grand plan. Small Rant: Bad […]Read More
“You know what the scariest thing is? To not know your place in this world. To not know why you’re here. That’s just an awful feeling. I almost gave up hope. There were so many times I questioned myself. But I found you. So many sacrifices, just to find you. Now that we know who […]Read More
Fourteen years ago I was fifteen years young and dreaming of the day when I wouldn’t have to go to high school anymore. As I awaited that merciful day I relied on movies as an escape from the hell that is being a teenager and even worse being around other teenagers. In 2004, during the […]Read More
It what could have easily been a forgettable, run-of-the-mill action/comedy, the chemistry between leads Ryan Reynolds and Samuel L. Jackson ends up saving the film itself. When trying to think of any actor who can deliver a line with “motherfucker” in it better than Samuel L. Jackson, I really do come up short. At that […]Read More
Say what you will about the man himself but there is no denying that a film directed by Quentin Tarantino is always an event not to be missed. The Hateful Eight is perhaps his slowest film to date and without question his longest at a staggering three hours and two minutes. Despite the scenic route […]Read More
I’m going to keep this short and sweet. This is the kind of movie that everyone has already decided if they can’t wait to see it or they can’t wait until they stop hearing about it. I know my little review of this already highly successful sequel isn’t really going to change any minds. I […]Read More
By seeing the poster for Django Unchained, you can guess it has to do with slaves in the old west; but taking that information and considering who wrote and directed the film you’ll be itching to get into your seat already. It’s not all the necessary vulgarities, but the assumption that it will be another […]Read More
“Django Unchained“ to me is a modern day Spaghetti Western at times, and others its a literary master piece. Quentin Tarantino can be brutal with his writing, Django Unchained is no different and I loved every second of it. Lets just say this was Quentin Tarantino’s best movie since Pulp Fiction. In my opinion. But […]Read More
