Band of Outsiders (1964)

5 / 10

Godard's weakest of what I've seen. Lacks direction and spunk that Anna Karina alone cannot make up for. Read the full review »

About Time (2013) added to Movies Watched in 2018 list.

Very cheesy, a little bit hypocritical, and most definitely overtly preachy to its audiences in the last five minutes, About Time still has an infectious charm about it, as well as phenomenal performances by Nighy and Gleason. Read the full review »

Borg vs McEnroe (2017) added to 2017 Movies Ranked list.

Borg vs McEnroe (2017)

7 / 10

Borg vs McEnroe presents an unbalanced rivalry of mentality from two of the greatest players. As a huge fan of tennis and the ATP rankings, I was immediately attracted to this biopic. John McEnroe and Björn Borg were arguably two of the finest le... Read the full review »

Kong: Skull Island (2017)

7 / 10

Kong: Skull Island has an abundance of pretty entertaining sequences and interesting stuff, and an outstanding ensemble which sometimes overtakes the spotlight away from King Kong. Sure, there are some things that don't work, but whenever Kong is... Read the full review »

Fright Night (2011)

5 / 10

Fright Night does not make me frightened of night, rather instead makes me tolerate it. Within the dark depths of Hollywood, some mortal thought it would be a genius idea to remake the 1985 cult classic. Whilst it retains some enjoyment, it is mes... Read the full review »

The Danish Girl (2015)

8 / 10

The Danish Girl serves as a riveting character study, and is led by two brilliant performances from Eddie Redmayne and Alicia Vikander. My only grievance with the film is aside from the main message portrayed in the film, I believe some stroy thre... Read the full review »

Death Wish (2018)

4 / 10

"Death Wish" is a pretty standard, extremely generic revenge thriller that is banking off of the name of the original vigilante justice film from the 1970's to attract viewers. Bruce Willis completely phones in his performances as Paul Kersey, ful... Read the full review »

The Strangers: Prey at Night (2018)

4 / 10

"The Strangers: Prey at Night" starts off fine and dandy, following the same beats as the original, so much so that it feels almost like a direct remake, not a sequel. There is a bit of suspense and tension in the first part of the film that makes... Read the full review »

Dude (2018)

2 / 10

The script is full of cringey dialogue and lines that are supposed to be spoken by teenagers but sound absolutely nothing like anything a teenager would ever say...at least we hope they don't. The pacing of this film is terribly slow, and the movi... Read the full review »

Won't You Be My Neighbor? (2018)

9 / 10

Fred Rogers lived his life based on one philosophy: love. He believed everything in life stems from "love or the lack of it." This is a message that has been missing from our culture for the last couple of decades. In all honesty, it has probably... Read the full review »

The Hero (2017)

6 / 10

This is a pretty by-the-numbers, formulaic story. It isn't terribly well paced, and much of the movie seems to drag on and on at times. Luckily, it isn't very lengthy. The one thing that helps elevate "The Hero" is Sam Elliott, who gives a tremend... Read the full review »

First Reformed (2017)

7 / 10

One man's fall into hopelessness is what "First Reformed" is all about. A myriad of dilemmas leads Toller down his path of sorrow as illness, past regrets, alcoholism, and societal concerns plague his soul and mind day in and day out. The main soc... Read the full review »

Tag (2018)

7 / 10

Any success the film has is accomplished by getting the audience invested in each of these characters and their unique friendship. All of the actors have great chemistry with one another, and we believe them as mates despite their obvious age diff... Read the full review »

The Host (2013)

3 / 10

The Host took control of my body and nearly forced me to turn it off. "By Stephenie Meyer, author of The Twilight Saga". Three young beautiful adults on the front cover. Wonderful taglines like "choose to love". The warnings were there, and I did... Read the full review »

Breath (2017)

5 / 10

"Breath" is a pretty standard coming-of-age film...until it isn't. It is set against breathtaking and beautiful settings and is full of glorious surfing moments that are very fun to watch, though they aren't anything we haven't already seen 100 ti... Read the full review »

In This Corner of the World (2016)

7 / 10

In This Corner Of The World frantically captures a young woman's struggle during Japan's darkest years. Japanese animation commonly use World War II as a backdrop for their characters enriched with traditionalisms and virtuous optimism, Ghibli are... Read the full review »

Brawl in Cell Block 99 (2017)

4 / 10

Brawl in Cell Block 99 is a brutal and filthy look on life in jail that is overly depressing and difficult to watch. I don't know if the movie is supposed to be effectively pessimistic, but it's totally despairing instead. It takes an hour to fina... Read the full review »
