The Last Voyage Of The Demeter (2023)
My quick rating - 6,3/10. Looks great (typed while watching.) This flick takes you on a spine-chilling journey aboard the ill-fated...

Barbie (2023)
My quick rating - 6.6/10. Time to see what all the hype is about. It can't be all bad, I mean Margot Robbie is in it. Right? "Note to the...

A Town Full Of Ghosts (2023)
My quick rating - 3.6/10. Looks like another found footage gem. As always, I watch everything so you don't have to. If nothing else, the...

Compound Fracture (2013)
My quick rating - 5.2/10. Nice to see Tyler Mane in a role other than his typecast fare. You know him (sorta) as Sabretooth or Michael...

Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse (2023)
My quick rating - 7.9/10. Incredible animation. Considerably better than the first. Spidey swings back into action with an incredible display of animation prowess, delivering a visually stunning experience that outshines its predecessor in Across The Spider-Verse . Building on the foundation laid by the first film, this sequel notches up the stakes, offering great action sequences that keep the audience engaged from start to finish. The animation in this movie is nothing shor

The Green Inferno (2013)
My quick rating - 6.4/10. After years of problems with legal, money, distribution, and who knows what else, this movie is finally out and viewable to the masses. So the big question is "Can Eli Roth bring us something worth all the hype?" My answer is Yes, but not a yes with all capital letters. Let me explain quickly. The movie is an homage to Cannibal Holocaust , which is a flick that came out and was so disturbing, violent, and original (the actual first found footage mo

Murdercise (2023)
My quick rating - 3.9/10. I keep seeing people saying this one isn't as bad as it sounds on Twitter so I'll be the judge of that. They wasted no time in giving us a gratuitous boob shot. 80s slasher is on its way for sure. This cheeky nod to 80s slasher films serves as a wink to the past, showcasing the director's intention to both pay homage and deconstruct the genre's clichés. The acting is on another level of terrible to the point I am pretty sure they are purposely being

The Super Mario Bros. Movie (2023)
My quick rating - 6.7/10. I figured that The Super Mario Bros. Movie would be one of those adaptations that is either completely full of nostalgia magic or a complete flaming blue shell disaster. It is surprising to me, however, that it did not induce me to throw my remote control (or, for the gamers in the room, the controller) at the wall, yet it is a fun ride through the Mushroom Kingdom. It starts off with the usual Brooklyn fare, with Mario and Luigi being two plumbers

Ninja Apocalypse (2014)
My quick rating - 4.8/10. I went into this one on the title alone, knowing nothing about it. I checked IMDB for reviews/ratings, but got nothing. Oops, the movie isn't out yet (check CNN for my ongoing argument about piracy as I am typing this). So, back to the movie, it is The Warriors meets Mortal Kombat meets the Zombie Apocalypse . Individually, all of those movies are far better than this concoction of them mixed together. Ok, I know that is a tough one to piece toget

Vacation Friends 2 (2023)
My quick rating - 5.4/10. We enjoyed the first one, so why not check out this sequel? Seems the entire cast has returned. In case you cannot see John Cena , he is there along with his crazy wife, Meredith Hagner (The joke is getting old, although Miz just used it last week on TV.) They absolutely wasted the ultra-talented Steve Buscemi and left him with jokes that, like most in this flick, fell flat. It wasn't a horrible sequel - it just seemed really lazy and uninspired.

Craving (2023)
My quick rating - 3.6/10. The action is absolutely cringe in this one. Acting is about the same level as well. I really don't like it when movies of this caliber try to play it seriously, since they lose all ability to be entertaining. Felissa Rose is always a welcome addition to a horror flick, and as usual, is the highlight. Those are my random thoughts during the flick. As far as the story goes, it isn't the worst setup I have seen before. After a drug deal goes south, fo

Spirit Of Fear (2023)
My quick rating - 3.4/10. I like the poster LOL. That image is a hell of a lot more frightening than this one-man show with Christopher Lee Page wandering around his house, finding notes it seems he wrote to himself ( Memento , anyone?). The story is that he wakes in an empty suburban house with no memory and blood smeared on his arm. As he frantically washes off the blood, he discovers that it is not his. He finds sticky notes around the house that read: "Don't stay in th

Three Extremes (2004)
My quick rating - 6.5/10. Three Extremes is actually 3 unique stories released as one film. Each story represents a different "idea," so to speak. Without going into detail per story, each is crafted exceptionally well in all aspects of true film. Granted, this is a foreign movie, so it is subtitled (the version I saw), but this does not distract from the acting in the slightest. The acting in "Cut" stood out most to me as the crazy man slowly fell apart throughout his hostag

Kill Shot (2023)
My quick rating - 3.9/10. If “high-octane thrill ride” was the mission statement for Kill Shot, then somewhere along the way, the engine stalled, and someone forgot to hire a stunt coordinator. What we’re left with is a movie that sounds like a good time on paper. Terrorists posing as hunters are tracking down $100 million lost in a plane crash. Instead, it plays out like a forgotten late-night cable filler from the early 2000s. Kill Shot kicks things off with that premise, w

Insidious: The Red Door (2023)
My quick rating - 5.6/10. Anticlimactic ending (that was my one comment at the end.) Insidious: The Red Door marks a change for the long-running horror franchise, as Patrick Wilson directs for the first time while series creator James Wan remains involved as a producer. It’s a natural evolution considering Wilson has been the backbone of the series from the beginning, and The Red Door looks to put the lid on the Lambert saga by dragging them, once again, into the dark re

Hidden Strike (2023)
My quick rating - 5.8/10. Always been a huge fan of Jackie Chan long before he made it over to the USA with Rumble in the Bronx . Unfortunately, I can't see John Cena , so I'm not sure how he is LOL. Hidden Strike tries to take the idea of adrenaline-fueled action to the next level in a way that's almost reminiscent of a comic book come to life. The unique pairing and non-stop action scenes almost make it achieve its purpose. Almost. Set against the backdrop of a China-run

Gore Theatre 2 (2019)
My quick rating - 1.9/10. I am going out on a limb and assuming not seeing the first of these won't much matter LOL. It is looking to be an anthology of flix with the host being some dude's head announcing them. This first clip is trying to make you believe it is found footage of a snuff film. Not in the slightest convincing or gross. If it stays this bad, I'll comment live through it. I am noticing a theme here. Very amateur, which makes sense if you look at the poster below
