    It’s been two and a half years since John Wick murdered scores of people over a dead dog and stolen car and I still don’t understand how that movie scored an 85% critic rating on Rotten Tomatoes. It was easily one of the worst written movies of 2014 that somehow got a complete pass because…

    My immediate impression of The Space Between Us was it was cute, I guess. That might be the last nice thing I say about this film because I spent the last twenty-four hours realizing that it’s kind of bad. Then I looked up the current Rotten Tomatoes score and…oh. Oh no. 11%? It wasn’t that…

    My attitude towards extreme mountain climbing varies between amazement and admiration for something like Touching the Void, to disdain and disgust at self-important trust fund kids who pollute places like Mt. Everest with their corpses and oxygen bottles. The shark fin of Mt. Meru in the Indian Himalayas has been characterized as the anti-Everest. More…

Patriots Day was a gripping film that focused on the people affected by this heinous act, and the fervent police and FBI investigation in…

    The first thing you are going to do after watching Gold is look up the actual story the film is based on. Actually, the real first thing you are going to do after watching Gold is find a Lincoln commercial so as to try to get the image of fat, comb-over, snaggle-tooth Matthew McConaughey out…

    Chances are that you have either seen, driven by, or even eaten at a McDonald’s franchise in the past couple of days. They are virtually everywhere, except in outer space, but I hear they are working on that too. I know this states the obvious, but have you ever wondered how this establishment, that is…

    I guess it was inevitable that I was to see this movie. After watching it there were really not enough words to describe it, and ever fewer to describe the incredible number of non-professional troll reviewers at IMDB who predictably hated it. One proud reviewer even boasted that he left after 20 minutes, went to…

    “It’s already boring” -some nameless little kid. “All great films, without exception, contain an important element of no reason,” -desert cop Lt. Chad. That sums up this awful film. The movie review should stop right here as that is all that really needs to be said. There is an old adage that goes somewhat like…
