‘Hamnet’ Movie Reivew

“To die, to sleep; To sleep: Perchance to dream: ay, there’s the rub;” – Hamlet, William Shakespeare I’m not a Shakespeare person. Let’s just throw that out there right away. Not necessarily on purpose, but my only experience with Shakespeare is reading ‘Romeo and Juliet’ in Mrs. Baudhuin’s ninth grade English class, watching ‘The Lion […]

IMDb’s 100 Greatest: ‘Platoon’

Ummm….. holy shit. I took the day off of work today, and after a trip to Door County I decided I would spin the wheel and see what movie I could squeeze in from my list today. The wheel decided to scar me for life and punish me for thinking I could have a peaceful […]

IMDb’s 100 Greatest: ‘Chinatown’

We almost lost me here everyone. My second spin of the wheel of IMDb’s 100 Greatest Movies of All Time almost became my last. When 1974’s ‘Chinatown’ came up as number 24, I was extremely excited at first….. Until I realized I was thinking of ‘Big Trouble in Little China’. Talk about a let-down. Instead, […]

IMdB’s 100 Greatest: An American In Paris (1951)

Fine. I’ve been missing watching movies. And not Marvel or Star Wars (although those are great too…. I’m not Scorsese), but real movies. CINEMA if you will. In order to satiate this need and also appeal to the chaos I so deeply crave, I am asking Siri to pick a number between 1 and 100. […]

‘Malignant’ Movie Review

I never know what movies are streaming vs theatrical release only anymore. I’ve been trying to find a time to go to the theater to see this movie for days, and finally I pulled up HBO Max and saw it available to stream there. I gotta say, I’m glad I didn’t have to pay $15 […]

‘The Night House’ Movie review

It’s the beginning of spooky season everyone! I brought out my skulls and pumpkins, and what better way to kick off my favorite time of year than a new horror movie? ‘The Night House’ is a horror/thriller directed by David Bruckner starring Rebecca Hall about a woman uncovering secrets her dead husband left for her. […]

‘Finding Kendrick Johnson’ Movie Review

The other day I was taking a long drive and decided to listen to the ‘Crime Junkie’ podcast. I scrolled through my options until I saw a name that rang a bell to me. The episode was called “MYSTERIOUS DEATH OF: Kendrick Johnson”. I couldn’t figure out why that name sounded so familiar, so I […]

‘Free Guy’ Movie Review

As I sat down in my recliner, I realized I really didn’t have any idea what this movie was about. I remember seeing the first trailer and seeing it was maybe like a PG-13 version of the 2009 Gerard Butler ‘Gamer’ movie, and then seeing a bad deep-fake of Ryan Reynolds on a buff guy. […]

‘Candyman’ Movie Review

If you get nothing else from this review, at least just take my word for it that you should really see the 1992 ‘Candyman’ before you see this 2021 version. I did not, and didn’t realize they were related at all only to find out that is not the case. In a lot of the […]
