Wrecking Crew, The (2026)

Action entertainment sweetened by its protagonists. Morena flamed. Her heroics were down to earth and her chemicals reacted well to the male hormone. I was as interested in the drama as I was in the action. HI Daddies did their thing. 13-Feb-2026
If I Had Legs I'd Kick You (2025)

Rose Byrne acted under a magnifying glass and never flinched or deviated from her purpose. She aced it. A woman becomes whole when they give birth. If the child is born broken, completion falls apart. The gift becomes a burden and mama can't come to grips. The child is in the shadows because of the uniqueness of her circumstances. I got the picture. Conan Obrien was restrained, pained and good. The director's flair was unique and the writing sparkled with intelligence. 05-Feb-2026
M3GAN 2.0 - (2025)

Logistics must be abandoned to enjoy it. It had Robocop qualities. There were robot tactics aplenty, mama drama and parental gullibility. The premise was cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs until it exploded. Every iteration of M3GN was a collectible, the musical moment was inspiring and junk never looked so good. 31-Jan-2026
Twinless (2025)

Dylan is all grown-up and ready for his close-up. Both turns are different and complex. Each side brought his personality forward and succeeded. One precarious and adventuresome, the other, patient and understanding. I kept seeing him as Nightwing. Maybe because I was imagining his impressive butt in tights. James Sweeney quietly tempered his character to fit a personality whose desire to fight loneliness outweighed the prescription that cures it. The foot suck was everything. Two men become attached when they share twin loss. When a twin dies, the survivor no longer has a mirror to base their lives on. One is gay, the other not but they create a bond that soothes the emptiness. A mirror to their souls. Susan Parks was sarcastic and aware. Two great attributes for comedy. Lauren Graham's sympathetic but volatile persona glorified a lot of her scenes. Francois Arnaud beefed things up by looking short, turning us on and being a dick. The cast was funny and endearing, the comedy was intellectual, the drama was bold, the sex was hot and politics were non-existent. I enjoyed it a lot. 20-Jan-2026
Life Of Chuck, The (2024)

It's sweet but reserved. A man's life is explored by the people he touched and inspired him. The main facets of a person's life told out of order with much respect. Does the universe die with you when you go? The actors were easy to like and most eloquent. Hiddleston's time is short but he made the best of it. His dance was joyous, drummer girl rocked, the children were well taught, Hamill made it understood and Mia was glorious. It's Stephen King from the heart. 31-Dec-2025
Mickey 17 (2025)

I watched ready to be disappointed but I was not. It was made for a future generation to fuss over and dissect. Pattinson is a beaten man who has to keep dying in order to survive. His accent and softness humanized Mickey 17 and convinced me to follow him. Pattinson's flashlight stayed on throughout even while twinning. Ruffalo's villain was way over the top. Naomi Aaki pumps the heart and kicks the ass. It's original, bonkers, nerdy and funny but the film lacked space. The supporting cast could have used it. I never stopped caring. 30-Dec-2025
Wake Up Dead Man: Knives Out (2025)

Josh O'Connor was an Exorcist "Dimmy" dream. Josh Brolin was a Monsignor undie dropper. Jeremy Renner reached. Mila did well. Daddy Scott was still pinchable but backdoored. No one can light a room like Lady Close. Kerry explored and was successful. I laughed through most of it because it was funny, interesting and dynamic. Daddy superior still has issues with a hypocritical accent. I found a way. Have Super Daddy proclaim that he was faking it for legal reasons. The story was fun, the pace delightful and the performances were sublime. 13-Dec-2025
Troll 2 (2026)

In primitive times God created giant trolls to balance carbon emissions. Christians came along and fucked that up. Revenge polluted the air and the trolls were abolished. A favorite scientific "fairy tale" expert is once again involved when a new troll shows up. Daddy soldier is back without a green arrow or opinions. Beautiful was as ugly as the rest and didn't deserve that name. It was useless, anyway. I spent a lot of time laughing, the dub was ridiculous and made the actors cheesy. A man finds the beast, a woman revives him, another frees him and man has to clean their shit up. 05-Dec-2025
Substance, The (2024)

Every time Quaid did anything on screen I balked. He was an obnoxious asshole providing disgusting chews and bringing the vibe down. All men window dressed and were not awarded the opportunity to become nothing more than buffoons. The guy with the hairy ass was an exception. The ladies were put through hell but the performances kept them alive. The writing would have succeeded further if it wasn't so questionable. How did she pay for The Substance, what happened to the maid, why didn't she have friends or family, why did she tell the neighbor that the original had moved out but still comes and goes every other week, how could she run when she couldn't walk and why did no one realize it was a mask? I saw Kubrick (the halls and bathroom,) Rosemary's baby (claustrophobic spaces,) and Brian De Palma (the Carrie finale.) The director exhibited art but yucked up the ending. It went too far and became unbearable. There is only so much red paint we can take. It accomplished uniqueness and conversation. 10-Oct-2025
28 Years Later (2025)

It was unique in prioritizing emotional impact. Young boy is being indoctrinated by his community. A hunt will open his eyes and a kill will make him a man. The rules are established during his training and dead mythology was properly explained. Goals, powers and limitations prepared us. Human escape was suspenseful, the town was slightly defined, the bonds were on and off, credibility began to wallow and the "last minute saves" were unwelcome. A character in a difficult situation has the responsibility to save themselves and gift the audience a survival skill. Dad was a gorgeous asshole that got blamed for everything. Boy forgot he too was a man. A bedridden mother goes on an adventure to cure her mental illness. Dude, she's bedridden! I don't understand how the son could go on such a quest after an intense first hunt. Watching parent cheating sex does not make you fearless. The doctor was an unnecessary paradox. The showdown was sour, the actors were wasted and cliches dissolved reasoning. The boy went on a quest to do something dangerous that he could have calmly done at home. 24-Sep-2025
Lilo & Stitch (2025)

I thought that the human Pleakley was Jonathan Groff. After comparing butts I was less assured. Magnusson was great. My coordinates kept getting fucked up. The film succeeds with humanity, culture and respect. Animation and live art expand its universe. Is it Nani or Noni? My game says Noni whilst the new say Nani which sounds like nanny no matter how you slice it. 13-Sep-2025
Wicked (2024)

I tried reading the book of "Wicked" and found I couldn't latch on to an emotional core because it was too busy describing things. I remember a description of a clock that I couldn't imagine, irking me the most. I did not finish the book but I finished the movie. The movie played like an antsy child that won't sit. I wanted to admire all the technical work but it was too busy setting up the next song to have much impact. More dwarves, less songs equal better character development. I couldn't understand Elphaba's evil turn. I didn't know she was a PETA. Wouldn't Glinda be the sensitive one and a people pleaser? Why is she called good when she's so self absorbed? Erivo owns the part but is not given the opportunity to act. Her voice is great but I wanted more character depth. Grande impressed and scared the beejesus out of me when she delivered a Kristin Chenowith performance. Her mimicry was outstanding. It's cheerful, harmless and colorful but it's not Oz or Kansas. 06-Aug-2025
Sinners (2025)

Full of culture, history, vibrance and originality. I did twitch a little in the beginning but everyone was working so hard to tell a story that I couldn't resist. The blues were everywhere. It is unfortunate that the performance at the bar lacked the oomph the folk music got. A surprise diva would have brought down the house. Even the limited characters left a mark. The cast stripped their personas without losing watts. The cliches were rewritten to better express a different culture and they fit. Bravo to the talent for creating their own thing. 05-Jul-2025
Little Princess, The (1939)

This is the third film I've completed starring Shirley Temple. I tuned into the others but one was because of Elizabeth Taylor. I recognized her history because bits and pieces of her legend were always there. I found her talented and cutesy. She's not an actual princess (TG) but a daughter of a distinguished man that is widowed and in charge of spoiling her. He satisfied all her whims, had adorable phrases between them, missed each other dearly when apart and daddy was loaded. FF. Daddy goes to war in South Africa and she is sent to a high falutin school that can use the clout and his money. She lives a life of luxury amongst resentful girls and a few good friends. She is informed that daddy died in war and the enemy stole his assets. The girl is broke and the school footed her luxurious lifestyle expecting recompense. The marm nixes the idea of throwing her out because bad publicity would fuck them. The people decide that the child can redeem herself by becoming a servant. Temple's talent grows as the movie rolled along. Her friends and hope toughened her up so she wouldn't give up or disappoint the audience. She took over like a pro. The film is not dark. The film is cheerful, sweet, undemanding and it presents to kids the pitfalls of growing up, without overloading them. The Joker played a respectable Indian and was a hoot. The School Mistress looked exactly how one would fear. It's corny but it was true. A restoration would befit it. It would sparkle and be presented on Father's or Soldiers Day. 25-Jun-2025
Wild Robot, The (2025)

A robot awakens to monster status and Tarzan heroics in a jungle full of talking animals that offset reality. I had to disbelieve that a computer can be compassionate. (Alexa has never given anyone oral sex.) I understand that the robot programmed herself to be able to communicate with the animals but why did they have human emotions? The talking animals were a distraction for a story that represented realism. The robot could have been a human doing the right thing by an animal that only coexists for the benefit of itself. Actually, a talking animal of great power and little ally ship would have sufficed to make it cohesive. Why are those fucking animals talking to a robot instead of us? 26-May-2025
