The Doctor’s Diagnosis: D James Cameron is truly a genius. I wasn’t a fan of the first two Avatar movies, but I had an epiphany somewhere during the third hour of watching Avatar: Fire and Ash. It was like lightning struck me and I had this grand moment of intellectual clarity. Alright, this will […]
The Doctor’s Diagnosis: B+ Superman is one of my most anticipated movies of the year because I grew up reading Superman comics and, for the love of God, I just wanted to see a good Superman movie released during my lifetime. I don’t want a dark, gritty Superman. I want the Superman that I […]
The Doctor’s Diagnosis: D This review has a prologue because I had a miserable experience watching this. I missed the first 20 minutes or so of Jurassic World: Rebirth. Oh, I was in the theater and watching the movie. I wasn’t late or anything. I was just completely distracted by my blinding hatred of […]
The Doctor’s Diagnosis: D+ I’m at a place now with the MCU that I can look at a mess like Captain America: Brave New World and think “well, that could have been worse.” And it could have been worse. This is a better film than, say, The Marvels or Eternals. It’s not good that […]
The Doctor’s Diagnosis: B Love Hurts is the directorial debut of Jonathan Eusebio, one of the preeminent stuntmen and fight choreographers in Hollywood over the last couple of decades. Most people won’t recognize his name, but they know his work from the John Wick movies, a whole bunch of Marvel movies, Jason Bourne movies […]
The Doctor’s Diagnosis: D I only watched the first Den of Thieves about a week ago when I realized that the sequel would be the first major release of 2025. I’m not sure why I missed the original in theaters when it was released in 2018, but I went into it with zero expectations […]
The Doctor’s Diagnosis: F I seem to be in the minority on this, but I am not, in principle, opposed to the idea of a new Crow movie. Yes, the original movie is intrinsically and tragically tied to Brandon Lee’s legacy. However, one must consider two things: First, there have already been three terrible […]
The Doctor’s Diagnosis: B+ Marvel Jesus, indeed. Deadpool & Wolverine has arrived to resuscitate the Marvel Universe, the once unstoppable juggernaut that has been on life support in recent years due to a string of critical and commercial flops (with the exception of the excellent Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3). The enormous box […]
The Doctor’s Diagnosis: B I honestly didn’t have particularly high hopes going into Twisters. Actually, to put it more bluntly, I didn’t give a shit about this movie from the moment that it was announced. While the original Twister was a massive success back in 1996, I’m still not exactly sure why. It isn’t […]
The Doctor’s Diagnosis: C First of all, it’s tragic that they wasted the Bad Boys for Life title on the third movie in this series. Did they not think that there would be a fourth one? They could have written it as Bad Boys 4 Life and it would have been so damn clever, […]
