Throwback Thursday: 'Collateral' Review
I'm not quite sure how to start this introduction; if I'm being honest with you, I've never seen a film quite like this one. I've seen plenty of great modern action movies: ‘Mission: Impossible (1996)’, ‘Skyfall (2012)’. But not even the Bourne films come off as uncompromising and real as this one.
'Baby Driver' Review
Edgar Wright’s Baby Driver is the story of Baby (Ansel Elgort) - a talented getaway driver who relies on the beats of his personal playlist to drive away from cops and drown out the noise of his tinnitus.

Throwback Thursday: 'A Few Good Men' Review
For today’s throwback, I will be reviewing a film directed by Rob Reiner. Haven’t heard of him? Well, he just directed some small little movies like ‘Stand By Me (1986)’, ‘The Princess Bride (1987)’, ‘When Harry Met Sally… (1989)', and ‘Misery (1990)’. He just so happens to be one of the...

'It Comes At Night` Review
When I say I am a film fan, my definition is of the purest degree. I review and critique films because of my utmost appreciation and respect for the art of it and what goes into it. In my most recent years, the genre of horror, especially indie-horror. In fact, the last several years saw the release of ‘The Witch (2016)’...
Throwback Thursday: 'Cinema Paradiso' Review
This being my first throwback review, I wanted to revisit a film that meant a lot to me. And, in the case of this film, that I’ve put meaning into. Some people have gone so far to say that this film is a love-letter to film. First of all...
'Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie' Review
You know, sometimes a popular type of film, a genre if you will, can get a bit tired. For me, the superhero genre has become very repetitive. In most of these films, there is a standard of...
'Mine' Review
'Mine (2017)' was written and directed by Fabio Guaglione and Fabio Resinaro and stars Armie Hammer, Annabelle Wallis, Tom Cullen, and Clint Dyer. 'Mine' follows Mike (played by Armie Hammer) as he becomes...
'A United Kingdom' Review
There is a word I have for films like 'A United Kingdom (2017)', and in no way is it a derogatory term; I simply use the term to describe a well-done, perhaps profound but lethargic movie that you would recommend to your great aunt. The term...
