Shazam! A hilarious triumph for DC
Shazam! (2019) Bar: Set pretty low. This is a DC movie after all. Expectations: Shazam! killed it. One Liner: I don’t think that I will see a more fun movie all year. Background: Shazam is really a pretty old character. He was originally introduced in Fawcett Comics in the 1940’s. Since......
Mortal Engines (2018)
Introduction: Mortal Engines (2018) might be the best new release I’ve seen this year. So far, I’ve seen around 35 movies. I’ve got about 4 or 5 left for the rest of the year, so something could potentially throw this off the top, but even with all the great buzz......
Bumblebee (2018)
Introduction: Bumblebee (2018) OMG!!! Where have you been for the last 30-ish years? This movie filled the Transformers shaped hole in my soul that Michael Bay era began in 2007. Director Travis Knight apparently listened a lot more to Producer Steven Spielberg’s advice over Michael Bay’s (thank goodness). This is......

Introduction: Eh-quaman is pretty good… for a DC movie. In fact, it’s the 4th best movie I’ve seen this week (Bumblebee, Mortal Engines, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, and Aquaman). One of my best friends said, “This is the best superhero movie I have ever seen.” I was like, “Umm, it’s......

Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse (2018) Review
Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (2018): A Quick Review… Sony is trying to do what they can to capitalize on their ownership of Spider-Man properties. Venom just came out, and it really didn’t have any connection to Spider-Man. Think about it, he didn’t even have the spider on his chest. My......
Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom – Movie Title or Description Of The Franchise?
Opening with an impressive $150 Million premier weekend, Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom met all of my expectations – and that isn’t a good thing. That’s really unfortunate because this is a franchise that holds a special place in many people’s hearts. I walked out of the theater feeling that I was......
Why The Incredibles 2 Is Not A Traditional Sequel.
The Incredibles 2 is less of a sequel than it is a “continuation.” Don’t get me wrong, that is not a knock on the film because it is – in my opinion – absolutely Incredible (pardon the pun). However what makes The Incredibles 2 special are all the same groundbreaking elements......

Logan, Wanted: Dead or Alive
Deadpool seemed to open the pandora’s box of R-Rated superhero storytelling. Fox has been definitely lagging behind the success that Marvel has been propelling itself though the Universe with. Winter Soldier was a spy movie, Ant Man was a heist movie. I think this is because Marvel was making genre flicks......
