Tenet

             If I had been writing reviews when Inception was released, I could just repost that review now with some nouns changed. Much like with Inception, Christopher Nolan has crafted a clever film with astounding visuals and concepts that are highbrow for a mega-budget Hollywood film. Also much like Inception, Tenet is a bit too far […]

Alita: Battle Angel

               Much like The Meg, I’m just amazed that this movie finally exists. Based on the manga (Japanese comic book), James Cameron bought the rights to make a Battle Angel film back in 1998, 20th Century Fox registered domain names for the film in 2000 and the movie was officially announced in 2003 with Cameron […]

Angel Has Fallen

               I was really excited about this movie when it was first announced. You know why? The title. The bullshit misleading title. This is a sequel to Olympus Has Fallen and London Has Fallen and, when I heard the title Angel Has Fallen, I naturally assumed that this would be about Gerard Butler defending heaven […]

Captain Marvel

               “Finally, a female superhero on the big screen!” presumably said somebody in 1984 when Supergirl was released to theaters. Since then, the only female comic heroes that have made it into the movies are Batgirl, The Invisible Woman, Catwoman, Storm, Rogue, Mystique, Kitty Pryde, Jubilee, Psylocke, Elektra, Jean Grey, Black Widow, Scarlet Witch, Gamora, […]

Charlie’s Angels (2019)

               Considering that I hate the Charlie’s Angels movies from the early 2000s, I had a pretty low bar for this new version. The makers of the latest Charlie’s Angels not only lowered that bar, they then took the bar, wrapped it in the most trite of feminist clichés and beat me over the fucking […]

Terminator: Dark Fate

               The good news is that Dark Fate is the best Terminator movie since Terminator 2. The bad news is that that’s like saying your sixth root canal went better than the previous three. The Terminator story logically concluded with T2 and the series has been lumbering along in a death march ever since, trying […]

Rambo: Last Blood

               John motherfucking Rambo. I love these movies. Well, I love most of these movies. The original First Blood is a classic action film that is far more poignant and somber than people remember. That’s because the first sequel, Rambo: First Blood Part 2, is easily the most iconic and successful of the series. That […]

Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

               Much like the last Star Wars movie, The Rise of Skywalker has seemingly divided the internet in half. Some are screaming about how awful it is, the rest are screaming about how great it is. It will apparently either ruin your childhood or force you to cum in your pants. I assume that this […]

Cold Pursuit

               For the second consecutive week, I’m reviewing something that most people probably don’t know is a remake of a foreign film. Cold Pursuit is a remake of the 2014 Norwegian film titled In Order of Disappearance and, unlike Miss Bala, it sticks so close to the original film that it really doesn’t even need […]

John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum

               Keanu Reeves is back to fuck shit up in the latest John Wick film and I’m damn happy to see him. I love these movies. John Wick films remind me of the fun and unabashedly violent actions films that I grew up with, the kind of thing that would have starred Stallone or Schwarzenegger […]
