I’m one of the most inconsistent movie watchers you’ll ever meet.  I can get on a roll with movies and watch one a night for a week or two.  However, I can also go an entire month without turning the television on.  In general, I mostly watch movies I’ve already seen before.  This past year I tried to break that […]

Cinderella (2021) Starring: Camilla Cabello, Minnie Driver, Idina Menzel, James Corden Director: Kay Cannon Rating: PG for suggestive material and language   Have We Been Here Before? I haven’t worked on my Cinderella reviews in awhile.  In fact, I set them aside long enough for someone (specifically Amazon) to make another movie.  Oh joy. I debated for several days before watching this movie.  […]

Without Remorse (2021) Starring: Michael B. Jordan, Guy Pearce Director: Stefano Sollima Rating: R for language, sexual content, violence   Syrians and Russians and Missiles (oh my!) I’ve been waiting to watch this new movie from Amazon Studios for quite some time.  My brother watched it and liked it, but didn’t necessarily care to watch it again, at least in the […]

Almost to the Finish Hello everyone!  I’ve got two Christopher Nolan movies left to watch – Tenet and The Dark Knight Rises – but I’m not quite ready to write full movie reviews.  So . . . I decided I’d give a little update of how my Nolan-binge is going in place of a full review. Long story short: I’m fascinated, forever […]

Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales (2017) Starring: Johnny Depp, Geoffrey Rush, Javier Bardem, Orlando Bloom, Brenton Thwaites Directors: Joachim Ronning and Espen Sandberg Rating: PG-13 for mild language, sequences of adventure and violence, some sensuality, and suggestive content Another Round, Gentlemen? I went to the library last night and decided it was high time to throw together […]

To Be Continued . . .  Here we are folks!  If you read my full review of Interstellar (2014) HERE, then you know I had some extra thoughts about the movie that had too many spoilers to go into the review.  I won’t waste your time: let’s get into it. There are several things I need to explain first before I really […]

Memento (2000) Starring: Guy Pearce, Carrie-Anne Moss, Joe Pantoliano Director: Christopher Nolan Rating: R for heavy language, violence, and some sexual references   Yes . . . Another Christopher Nolan In case anyone was wondering, I’m on Nolan #5 (for me personally).  I’ve now watched Dunkirk, Interstellar, The Prestige, Inception, and Memento.  I haven’t disliked any of these.  In fact, you could say I’m a […]

Wonder Woman 1984 (2020) Starring: Gal Gadot, Chris Pine, Kristen Wiig, Pedro Pascal Directed by: Patty Jenkins Rating: PG-13 for sequences of action and violence   A Long-Awaited Sequel . . . I Think I don’t watch movies from the DC Universe.  I am an MCU fan all the way, and I have no qualms about “missing out” on the DC franchise.  […]

Interstellar (2014) Starring: Matthew McConaughey, Anne Hathaway, Jessica Chastain, Michael Cain Directed by: Christopher Nolan Rating: PG-13 for intense perilous action and brief strong language   Did I Make a Mistake? Christopher Nolan knows how to wow the crowd.  While I have currently only seen two of his movies (Interstellar and Dunkirk), I already see a pattern of intricate story-telling and brilliant […]

Raya and the Last Dragon (2021) Starring: Kelly Marie Tran, Benedict Wong, Awkwafina Rating: PG for mild perilous action   A Broken World In an ideal world, there is perfect peace and everyone gets what they want.  But we are wicked creatures.  We can’t seem to get along for any decent period of time without spiritual intervention.  For believers this […]
