No need to menace words: “Players” is another second-hand level embarrassment that Netflix has nobody to blame but themselves for. At best, at the absolute bare minimum, it’s just another bland, predictable romcom but at worst, it’s more t... Read the full review »

Back when I first reviewed Dune: Part One back in 2021, I was very deliberate in picking my words carefully to say I LIKED the film: it was just a lot of exposition and table setting but everything surrounding and engulfing it was so well-construc... Read the full review »

How did that old Naked Brothers Band song go? “I don’t want you to get involved again, but I want you to join me in my quest again. Conflict with my life is the beginning”. Nat Wolff gets to live out those lyrics once again this time with L... Read the full review »

I’m not doing my typical intro this time, let’s just dispense with the niceties and get this over with. Calling “Madame Web” “like if A.I. generated your boyfriend's perfect movie”, is simply code for flaming hot dogshit; one of the mo... Read the full review »

Being scared of the dark is the most commonplace type of anxiety any one of us had to adapt to as first young lads. I was scared of the dark, you were, your parents were, everybody was OR STILL IS. But it’s only when you contextualize how those... Read the full review »

Lift (2024)

Lift (2024)

2 / 10
I really wanted to be the oddball in this situation for once. I wanted to give “Lift” the ol’ college try and see if I can come out the other side, saying there was something, anything worth of merit to this rip-off porporee to where I didn�... Read the full review »
