Clock, The (1945)

Soldier on his way to war oblivion procrastinates on his two day leave with a mild mannered working girl whose greet was cute and sweet. Awareness brought forth strong emotions, togetherness and a lifetime of love is lived in 2 days with the help of kindly neighbors. 11-Sep-2026
Star Wars: Mandalorian and Grogu (2026)

A movie about a bounty hunter and the adorable little baby that are bound together by destiny. A Star Wars film without a mythological front. It is what it is and what it is is great fun. Daddy's dulcet tones lulled me into superhero dreams of Dorothy from Oz picking up all kinds of fascinating creatures and having marvelous adventures. Mando is his own worst enemy. He keeps pissing people off who want to kill him. Grogu was the little bastard that stole it with his comical antics and his winning heart. It was a theater experience at home that I adoringly enjoyed. 05-Sep-2026
Dark Was The Night (2014)

Loggers desecrate a mythical creature's terrain forcing it onto a quaint town that didn't appreciate its survival skills. A sheriff and his deputy are tasked with unfurling the mystery. Sheriff is mourning the loss of a son whose life he couldn't save, deputy is a city boy running away from city harm and the town's identity was established as smarter than most. The performers gave more than it deserved but the monster was mostly avoidable and a disappointment. It only showed at the end. Somebody compiled some clay and garbage and threw it on a stunt person. It was nondescript. Pity because I liked the Kingtown vibe. 30-Aug-2026
Last House, The (2026)

The threat is incomprehensible. Locking people inside their homes to take over their land seemed like a waste of time when its power was greater than ours. Why the delay? It's a bind the writers had trouble pontificating. The actors were a cohesive unit. They were family. Wagner lead as a dad who had to protect his own without admitting to the danger, Greta Lee was well composed as the mom and the children of all ages clicked. The progression from family vacation to family strife was convincing. Family time was sentimental, neighborly contacts were necessary, animal rescues were understood and the family's resilience was enervating. The best parts of the film were inside the house whilst everything outside remained vague. 07-Aug-2026
Devil Wears Prada 2, The (2026)

The talent lent credence to their characters by reanimating them organically and with care. It was a trip down memory lane that I barely remembered but that brought forth good thoughts. The threat was grounded, the ladies were absorbent and the camaraderie was constant. Fashion stunned in limited quantities. The beauty of certain outfits were commercialized and a lack of outfit backstory bummed but I felt every single beat the production was drumming and I liked it. 29-Jul-2026
Wicked For Good (2025)

The explanations don't match the truth. One good song hits the sentiment but the rest were lacking. Replacing or reshaping them should have been a priority. If actors can't sing don't let them. The mythology is overcomplicated. It's one thing after another that didn't add up to the book or the classic film. If Glinda had no powers how did she get the shoes on Dorothy? In The Wizard of Oz she uses magic. Romance and politics were unnecessary. They were tools used to tie our thoughts with the original art but only created more threads. Elphaba not being wicked but a misunderstood Jane was the crux of the movie's problem. How does she go from enslaving animals (Wizard of Oz) to PETA activist? Erivo was never allowed the satisfaction to complete her character. I wanted to see her get wicked and become ugly by default. Dorothy's outline was short and cold. None of it was enacted which killed the impact. Heck, they could have inserted edits from the 1939 original and it would have been less goofy than nothing. The players captivated in a story that should have never been tied to the memories of Oz. 22-Jul-2026
Hamnet (2025)

A supposition of how a master artist was inspired to create a classic play. Ms Buckley masters riveting. It only takes a manner of minutes before she blows us away. A beautiful guttural actress. Mescal was passionate and romantic stuck in a dreamworld that paralleled his own without the magic or the hope. Zhao was efficient with feet planted on the ground and her head looking upwards. An uplifting end falters because it relied on mythical belief instead of the realism it suggested. 11-Jul-2026
Remarkably Bright Creatures (2026)

I liked it, I really liked it. Please don't tell Mikey. 13-May-2026
Good Boy (2025)

The dog said, "get me outta here!" whilst the humans yelled "WTF?!!!!!," just for the hell of it. 02-May-2026
It is disconcerting to think of a dog living in darkness for a good portion of its life. There were no lingering impressions that the dog was ever comfortable. Though the idea of a dog's view of a haunting is fresh and experimental, there were too many shadows to cast a good light. Even though Indy was brilliant his light should have been shared otherwise we are to think that our pets don't see us. I wanted to hug it. The scares don't cling to a mythology of substance but having a baby experience them gave it a protective chill. Effort exists but I understood the dog better than the haunt. 02-May-2026
Zootopia 2 (2025)

The idea that mammals need to bow to serpents is ridiculous. When babies encounter venom they will hug it and die. It was beautiful, joyful, charismatic and fun. 14-Mar-2026
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
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
Train Dreams (2025)

The historical life of a logger explored and how life politics and choices detoured his path to happiness. Loss is a pain whose wound never heals. It remains in memory banks of hope. Robert Granier is categorized by an actor that added honor to sympathy. Edgerton owned it. Life is simpler than I thought and harder. 09-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
