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
The Mummy (2026)

Child is kidnapped in foreign country and resuscitates as a mummy 8 years later. How does a family that is established deal with that kind of return? Half and half. The showdowns were based on cliches but the child astounded and the staff was on it. The visuals were full of creativity and hauntings. I keep remembering them. I was curious, spooked and entertained. 08-Jul-2026
Avatar: Fire and Ash (2025)

Magic is dissipating but beauty remains the same. 02-Jul-2026
Marty Supreme (2025)

Ambitious perfection. 05-May-2026
Ghost of Dragstrip Hollow (1959)

Before Scooby Doo there was this. An amalgamation of sitcom sensibilities, talking parrot extremes, dance and musical numbers, generation gap dissection, tom foolery, daddy perversions, money problems, stupidity and lesbians galore. Fast & Furious club are being targeted for more money because of it's reputation. Teen daughter is a drag race queen who has to concoct ways to manipulate the club and the cops from not snitching. She's a manhole on wheels. Daddy does not want his daughter fucking around with bees. Mommy needs to hear about good sex from anyone else. Drag racers are misunderstood. The men are pussies to their sometimes womanly lovers. Agatha was devine. The high is so stupid you have to laugh. Me not understanding what my parents' teenage asses said or did was hilarious and relevant. 05-May-2026
Wuthering Heights (2026)

Fennell is a diva whose use of instruments compliment her. Margot's Catherine is an untamed delicacy that can't sit still. Elordi's naughty edge was electric. Together they roar through an often told tale, commanding emotions as it rolls along. The movie is rustic, challenging and sexually explosive. Everything seems out of place except for the truth that romance is devastating. 03-May-2026
Bugonia (2025)

I appreciated the concept but I have no idea what planet this movie is from. Nutter kidnaps executive because he thinks she's an alien. A cousin is his Frankenstein sidekick. The actors wrecked, the bumbling idiots had no solid plan, the cop was unnecessary, and I wished everyone was in a cohesive movie. The hype doesn't allow me to play along because the outcome is obvious. When the embroidered sacks appeared I went into hysterics. If I had been in a theater I would have had to run out before I got thrown out. Stitched rope. LOL! 01-May-2026
Dust Bunny (2025)

A blockbuster that should have been. I hopped onto the camera as soon it started to move. "Kill Bill" is hired to assassinate a monster that may or may not exist underneath baby Wednesday's bed. Sigourney Weaver was intelligent, funny and enervating. It was a "bitch" howdy welcome. Aurora strapped the story onto her shoulders and it didn't weigh her down. She was chin to chest with Mads. The supporting players got their own space, story and admiration. The synopsis readied me to understand but didn't prepare me for the motion. Fuller is a bunch of masters imbued in one. I was so involved that I had to cancel my lunch date because I was too tired from staying up late watching it. I was that involved. 18-Apr-2026
The Testament Of Ann Lee (2025)

Ann Lee gives up the joy of life to preach the word of god. She has godly visions that hint at something greater than what is going on. She finds a church she can marry and eventually becomes their mother. The 2nd coming of Christ as a woman. Her mental health was questioned, she was imprisoned, beat, humiliated and spat on but she kept preaching. She even preached when god let her 4 babies die. She blamed it on sex and banned it from her husband and congregants. Christopher Abbott was the heated husband whose belief in God tortured his soul. His wife was now his sister and he was horny as fuck. Heck, I wanted to do that mouth thing on him just to keep him regular. The musical segments were easy on the ears and an extra element of characterization. There are times that you want them to shut up as much the neighborhood but that was the point. Amanda Seyfried was mature, focused, captivating and entertaining. Her visions don't lead to much but her obsession is unstoppable. I thought brother deserved more insight, I enjoyed the flow, the look and I was enthralled. 01-Apr-2026
Sentimental Value (2025)

The actors had to fill the spaces the script left out. A combination of the two would have made the film unforgettable. A writer/director tries to make peace with the two daughters he left behind. Recompense for their mother dying. Daddy has a script and a history he wants to make up for and he wants his eldest to act in it. The daughter is a stage actress whose father never ventured to watch her. Him hating live theatre felt unfit. Films and audiences are found in theaters as well. Artists gobble all types of art so they can better understand their own. Though the sentiments and emotions are clear the happenings are not. Performances were raw, experimental and beautiful. The film is quiet, ponderous and proficient but I couldn't find its pulse. 24-Mar-2026
Secret Agent, The (2025)

Patience and the art of listening is required. Refugee on the run after politics and personal vendettas defame him and target him with violence. Puzzle pieces take their time dropping but they are revealed. The atmosphere was hot, survival skills can only stretch a life so much, the characters were amateur finds, it hooks, it doesn't look away but it doesn't finish satisfactorily. I wanted some hammer time. 11-Mar-2026
Blue Moon (2025)

When a collaboration is successful the power it wields is insurmountable. When a collaborator collaborates with others to greater success, the loss of power leaves a man broken. Hart is a legend hanging by his wits with only romantic notions to keep him hooked. Hawke wakes a has-been from legendary death. His commitment made the words flourish. The character was so complete that I couldn't remember what Ethan Hawke looked like. A play of sorts with historical elements that conveys the truth. Qualley's force closes the film beautifully. I saw and heard the era in her. 10-Mar-2026
Jurassic World: Rebirth (2025)

The human outline was "Aliens." Bailey seemed like a different person which is great for craft but not star watt. The reboot is tighter, the visuals are beautiful and the action was refreshing and tame. I felt like Mikey from the cereal commercials, "I really liked it" but don't ask me why. The only disappointment was not having dinosaurs shred Bailey's or Ali's clothes off. 02-Mar-2026
Predator: Badlands (2025)

I have a problem accepting A.I. with feelings. Bionics would have made better sense. Should Predators have a conscience? Predators eat the weak. Logistics aside, the popcorn balloons popped constantly. Sometimes with extra butter. 23-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
