      Mac, Rabbit, Thorny, Foster, and Farva are back for some more shenanigans in Super Troopers 2, the crowd-funded sequel to the 2001 cult stoner comedy.  The original Super Troopers gained notoriety with the midnight movie crowd as a classic, quotable stoner comedy of pure ridiculousness. Now most comedy sequels don’t work.  Movies like Caddyshack 2, The Whole Ten Yards, The Hangover Part II (and Part III for that matter) all failed miserably to live up to their predecessors.  Great…

      According to www.dictionary.com, the definition of the word rampage is, “violent or excited behavior that is reckless, uncontrolled, or destructive.”  This definition describes what I wanted out of this film.  I wanted complete and utter chaos.  I wanted heightened, ridiculous, over-the-top action.  That was it.  The plot, characters, acting, none of that matter.  I just wanted mayhem. Unfortunately, I only got that for the last third of the movie, which was everything I…

      A Quiet Place is a movie set in a world of silence.  This is a dystopian future where people must survive mysterious creatures who are blind, but incredibly sound sensitive.  The movie itself is very quiet, because that is how our characters will survive.  But what first time director and star John Krasinski does so well is immerse us in this horrifying world.  There was a moment during the film where I…

      Blockers is one of the funniest movies I have seen in a long, long time.  In fact, I’d have to go back to 21 Jump Street back in 2012 to find a comedy that I laughed this hard in.  But what makes Blockers the best comedy of 2017 so far – as well as one of the best movies of the year so far – is the balance of laughs and heart mixed with rounded…

        Isle of Dogs is Wes Anderson’s biggest and most ambitious movie to date.  It might sound crazy, seeing as it is an animated movie with talking dogs, but Anderson has never made a like this before.  This is an animated comedy that is also part Western, a sliver of film noir, and a political drama.  It’s a lot for Anderson to handle and he handles it well, for the most part. Isle…

      Growing up, there was always a video gaming system in my house.  It started with SEGA Genesis, then went to Nintendo 64, and then PlayStation 2, and then finally, PlayStation 3.  My older brother and I would play a lot, especially in the early years on SEGA and N64.  But towards the PlayStation days, I didn’t play nearly as much.  One, being the competitive man that I am, my brother was generally…

      When I walked in to the theater to see Pacific Rim: Uprising, the theater had it’s LED ceiling lights on, making the entire theater visible, as well as placing a heavy glare on the screen, making it difficult to see most of the trailers that were playing before the movie.  Eventually, the lights were turned off and Pacific Rim began. I should have taken this as a sign that the cinematic God’s were telling me to…
