This is an interesting film to review because of how bad it is. If I am to evaluate the film purely on its content, then I would give Gods of Egypt a big fat 0. However, this film is so bad that I found much of it quite funny so at the very least it…
Unless you have been living under a rock, you might be aware that Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice is nearly among us. This is a very exciting time because these two juggernauts have never shared the movie screen before. While I am incredibly excited, I am exercising caution. The fact of the matter is:…
Zootopia is an animated children’s film about anthropomorphic animals and the society that they have created. This film will almost certainly appeal to most children, but what surprised me is just how deep this film is for the older audiences. There is a surprising amount of heart and fantastic comedy that makes Zootopia an unforgettable…
I do not review many horror films, not because I do not like the genre but because most of them are not very good. Horror films do not require a big budget, and most audience members will go see it even if it is not very good. Because of this most horror films are lazy…
It is finally that time of the year, and so I have to figure out which films will win the glorified Oscar. Well, I do not have to, but I really like making these predictions every year. Along with predictions, I do want to state which of the nominations DESERVE an Oscar (My personal opinion…
This is the first 2016 release that I have seen, and by god the year is off to a good start. Deadpool is the sixth film on my most anticipated list, and I could easily see it making my top 10 list of the year. Even with its minor flaws, this film never fails to…
Yes, yes, this post is very late. I wanted to see The Revenant before making this list in hopes of it landing a spot in the top 10. Did it? Read on to find out, but before listing honorable mentions, I do want to reflect a little on the past year in films. Many may…
The point of a trailer for a film is to entice audience to go and see that film. When I saw the trailer for Spotlight I thought that it would be a bland journalistic film, and boy was I wrong. While it may not be a perfect film, it certainly comes close and ranks as…
2015 had many great seasons of television shows. I would even argue this is one of the strongest years of television in recent history. Very few shows fell flat for me. In fact, there were so many great shows that I have a couple of honorable mentions. Before I delve into my list, keep in…
Whenever someone asks me who is my favorite director, Tarantino is a name that always comes to mind. He is not my favorite, Stanley Kubrick has that pleasure, but Tarantino is certainly up there (for me at least). I think all his films are great, and The Hateful Eight is no exception. It has a…
