Top 5 – Tom Cruise Movies

When you think of a movie star, who do you think of?  George Clooney?  Brad Pitt?  Matt Damon?  They’re fine and all, but the definition of a movie star is Tom Cruise.  Since breaking out in Risky Business (1983), Cruise has been one of the most consistent and entertaining actors in Hollywood, starring in a wide range of films from big budget blockbusters to Oscar nominated dramas.  This weekend, Cruise stars in the latest Mission: Impossible film, Mission: Impossible: Fallout,…

Review – Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie

Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie is a movie that takes us into the mind of child.  Our main characters, George (voiced by Kevin Hart) and Harold (voiced by Thomas Middleditch) are a couple of imaginative, yet troublesome elementary students who love pranking people and writing a comic book called “Captain Underpants”.  The boys are inseparable and hang out every single moment of every single day.  However, standing in their way is Principal Krupp (voiced by…

Review – Wonder Woman

Review – Wonder Woman

After the mediocre Man of Steel (2013) and the abysmal double-feature of Batman v. Superman (2016) and Suicide Squad (2016), we finally have our first successful film in the DCEU with Wonder Woman.  This movie is triumph.  A game-changer that features spectacular visuals, exhilarating action, deep themes, top-notch direction, and a star-making performance, resulting in the best comic book movie since The Avengers (2012). Wonder Woman tells the story of Diana (Gal Gadot), princess of the Amazons, who is being trained to be an unconquerable…

Top 5 – Most Important Comic Book Movies

Top 5 – Most Important Comic Book Movies

This week, Wonder Woman is released and it could be argued that it is one of the most important comic book movies ever released.  Firstly, the DCEU has a lot riding on it, especially after last year’s debacle of Batman v. Superman and Suicide Squad, both of which were critical disasters and underperformed at the box office.  But more importantly, it is the first female-led comic book movie since the abysmal Catwoman (2004) (but do we really count that one?), which…

Review – Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales

Review – Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales

Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales marks the fifth, that’s right, FIFTH, film in the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise.  To be honest, I am not a fan of this franchise.  I loved the original 2003 film, which was an exciting, original adventure and one of Johnny Depp’s best performances as the now legendary Captain Jack Sparrow.  However, the proceeding films all failed to muster up any of the magic from the original, causing three…

Review – Baywatch

Review – Baywatch

Following in the footsteps of other raunchy T.V. adaptations, like 21 Jump Street (2012) and CHiPS (2017), we get Baywatch, a funny, sexy, action-packed, at times low-brow film that is perfect for the summer. Baywatch centers around devoted lifeguard Mitch Buchanan (Dwayne Johnson) as he butts heads with brash new recruit Matt Brody (Zac Efron).  The two begin to uncover a local criminal plot that threatens the future of the Bay and must put aside their differences, rally the team, and…

Review – Alien: Covenant

Review – Alien: Covenant

During most movies that I see, I take notes.  I do this to remember key scenes, performances, quotes, etc.  While watching Ridley Scott’s Alien: Covenant, there was a moment where I stopped taking notes.  Not because the movie was bad or because I got everything that I needed, but because I was so invested in the movie.  I didn’t want to miss a single moment of what was going on.  My eyes were glued to the screen…

Top 5 – Ridley Scott Movies

Top 5 – Ridley Scott Movies

Ridley Scott is one of the best directors to ever get behind the camera.  A master of story and visuals, his filmography is as diverse as any director’s out there, making films of all genre from sci-fi, to war epic, to romantic drama.  This Friday, Scott steps back in the Alien franchise with Alien: Covenant, which is an excellent movie.  So in honor of that, here are my picks for the best Ridley Scott movies.        …

Review – Snatched

Review – Snatched

I went into Snatched with mixed expectations.  Part of me thought the movie looked unfunny and lame.  Another part of me looked at the credentials of the film, Amy Schumer, Goldie Hawn, Wanda Sykes, and director Jonathon Levine, and thought that the movie had too much talent to be bad. Much to my pleasure, it is the latter.  Snatched is a blast that perfectly balances raunchy humor with sweet mother-daughter family bonding. Schumer plays Emily, a social…
