I’ve made lots of blog posts on this site. Here, you can find the site’s entire history. All categories and tags are included below.
Blonde — A Shallow, Repetitive Slog
its most glaring and immediate sin is that it’s just not a very good movie
See How They Run — A Vastly Underwhelming Whodunnit
I’ll remember See How They Run, if at all, mostly for its wasted potential.
Bullet Train — Exciting, Original Action
This Bullet Train doesn’t quite smoothly stop at the station, but it’s still a smooth and enjoyable ride.
Honk For Jesus. Save Your Soul. — Biting Religious Commentary
It might not save your soul, but it’s worth honking for this movie.
Breaking — An Emotional John Boyega Vehicle
Boyega’s performance in Breaking is so good, in fact, that it’s practically the entire reason the movie works at all.
The Woman King — Revamping the Historical Epic
Like the Agojie, The Woman King’s main ideas are too strong and relentless to be stopped.
Don’t Worry Darling — A Boring Sci-Fi Attempt
I gave Don’t Worry Darling a fair shake, and unfortunately it just doesn’t work, leaving the Twitter drama to be more entertaining after all.
Bodies Bodies Bodies — A Gen Z Whodunnit
It’s a whole lot of fun, and has enough to say that it overcomes an initially vacuous premise.

there’s next to nothing to grab onto, besides the charismatic lead performance
The Fallout — An Infuriating Call to Action
It takes an unflinching, scathing look at the realities of this now all-too-common occurrence

On the Count of Three comes across as brutally honest and raw storytelling.
Apollo 10 1/2 — Rotoscoped Nostalgia
Sometimes it’s nice to see the world through someone else’s eyes.
RRR — Living Up to the Hype
I always enjoy movies that are wholly earnest, while also having substance and excitement to provide
The Black Phone — Solid, Yet Undercooked, Horror
The Black Phone is a mostly effective horror-thriller.
