I’m just a guy that loves movies and loves talking about movies. Actually, that’s a lie. I love a lot of movies and really hate a lot of movies. But, either way, I love talking about them. I’ve been writing movie reviews for years and finally decided to share them because this interweb thing really seems to be taking off. I hope you enjoy my reviews and equally hope that you don’t bother me if you don’t.
The Doctor’s Diagnosis: C If you aren’t like me at all, you have spent the eight years since the release of The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 2 wondering when we would finally get a film explaining the origin of series villain Coriolanus Snow. Well, the day has finally arrived and the completely unnecessary […]
The Doctor’s Diagnosis: C+ I’m pissed that critic Adam Ollinger used the line “Godzilla Minus Fun” because I had that line in my head since I saw this movie last week. Regardless, I’m joining him as one of very few people on the internet that don’t love this movie. I don’t hate it, but […]
The Doctor’s Diagnosis: C+ I must regrettably admit that Priscilla is the first Sofia Coppola movie that I’ve watched. If I had press credentials, I would fear that they would be revoked over that admission. After viewing this movie, I’m still not sure what to make of her as a filmmaker. While Priscilla is […]
The Doctor’s Diagnosis: B It’s taken 16 years, but Thanksgiving is here at last. Eli Roth made the fake trailer for Thanksgiving as one of the trailers that played in the middle of the 2007 movie Grindhouse and he’s finally gotten around to making the full movie. I’m happy to report that, while it […]
The Doctor’s Diagnosis: D Much is being made about the abysmal box office performance of The Marvels and, really, it’s hard to understand why this isn’t a smash hit. It’s a team-up with characters that few people care about and a sequel to a television series that few people care about with a plot […]
The Doctor’s Diagnosis: F I’ve never played a Five Nights at Freddy’s game, but, based on what I thought I knew about the games, I was looking forward to this movie. I thought that the gist of the games was that people were stuck in a Chuck E. Cheese knockoff and the animatronics came […]
The Doctor’s Diagnosis: A Martin Scorsese returns with Killers of the Flower Moon and perhaps cements his place as the world’s greatest living director (although Francis Ford Coppola, Steven Spielberg and Ridley Scott might have something to say about it). Flower Moon is a sprawling, 3 and ½ hour true crime epic. While greed and […]
The Doctor’s Diagnosis: B- The Creator is a movie that I wanted to love, but I only managed to like it. From director Gareth Edwards, who brought us Rogue One: A Star Wars Story and the 2014 Godzilla, The Creator is a unicorn in modern Hollywood: a major sci-fi release that isn’t a remake, […]
The Doctor’s Diagnosis: D- Last October, director David Gordon Green gave us one of the worst horror sequels ever made with Halloween Ends. This October, Green returns with another one of the worst horror sequels ever made with The Exorcist: Believer. If anything positive can come of this ridiculously misguided film, it’s my hope […]
The Doctor’s Diagnosis: B+ First, a brief tangent: Why is everyone pronouncing the title of this movie as “Saw Ex,” as in pronouncing the letter “X?” This is the tenth Saw movie, so pronounce it as “Saw Ten.” When Saw XI inevitably arrives, are we going to refer to it as “Saw Ex Eye?” […]
