My quick rating - 7.2/10. Another Oscar nominee for best picture. Austin Butler was excellent in his depiction of Elvis. Oftentimes, he was holding this movie together since Baz Luhrmann has a tendency to get a bit lost in his own flicks. One thing that stuck out to me in this is the complete lack of addressing the drug problem that Elvis had. I understand trying to keep with the all-American image, but if you are going to show the highs and lows of a legend's career such a

My quick rating - 5.4/10. Microsoft has the cheapest rental or purchase at Amazon . Fear Of The Dark (2003) #horror #IMDB #Plex

My quick rating - 2.4/10. More of a PSA that this is one of the worst documentaries I have seen on really any subject. But to make matters worse, this is a subject I am very interested in and have always tried to read/watch all I can on it. But between the constant annoying music playing in the background and the completely pointless and unrelated videos playing, it is just so amateur. At least they got the verdict about him being Jack the Ripper correct. No one in their righ

My quick rating - 4.1/10. Usual suspects have this one for a $3.99 rental including Amazon The Apology (2022) #thriller #IMDB #Plex

My quick rating - 7.6/10. Time to get to this year's Oscar nominations for best picture. I have already reviewed Top Gun , so that leaves 9 more to get to reviewing (8 more to watch). It isn't an easy task to make you feel actually empathetic towards German soldiers, but this movie does about as good a job at that as can be possible. Director Edward Berger is able to capture what I would think is a very real transition from being patriotic for the cause of fighting for your

My quick rating - 3.4/10. I checked out the first Full Moon flick from this series back in August 2022 and was pleasantly surprised ( link ). I didn't know a sequel was coming, but here it is, and at 65 minutes, it fits the bill nicely. I had no idea women have so much fun in the showers. Nice of this flick to give us about 10 minutes of video evidence of it. They had to use this to set up the dumb frat guys to get caught videotaping them. Because a movie like this needs to

My quick rating - 4.2/10. Usual streamers all have it for rent at $6.99 so click below for Amazon (assuming it is worth seeing that is) Devil Beneath (2023) #horror #IMDB #Plex

My quick rating - 7.0/10. Wait on 4K or not, that is my question. The answer was I got impatient and just checked out what I had (1080p). Streaming on Disney+ only TODAY. Black Panther: Wakanda Forever (2022) #action #IMDB #Plex

My quick rating - 3.8/10. So far, we have a monster flick that has some above-average production quality attached to it. There is a reason why movies like Anaconda or Lake Placid are entertaining even though they may not be considered "Good," and that is because they have fun with their campiness. This movie is the exact opposite of that. As I was watching, I really wanted to like this flick. Unknown creature in the woods, very good quality camerawork, but then the dialogue s

My quick rating - 4.7/10. It isn't that this is a good movie, but it grew on me. It has a sort of grindhouse feel like the 70s-80s horror flicks, when they focused on the satanic cults being the main source of evil. Nostalgia aside, the plot is pretty much paper-thin. A group of people is attacked in the middle of nowhere by a cult, and one of them escapes to a secluded house. Our heroine ( Mya Hudson ) meets a typical character, London May , who is forced into being the her

My quick rating - 3.6/10. Needed a short flick, so this fits at 61 minutes. Also, it didn't take long to see that this is a quick B-budget slasher flick. A group of horrible actors, I mean, old friends, decide to get together for a reunion of sorts since they basically all live in the same town. But when some coworker is invited along for the ride, an escaped asylum inmate happens upon the group, and the fun immediately begins. I use the term fun quite loosely since the budge

My quick rating - 5.2/10. Isn't that the truth? You can check this one out on the usual suspects including Amazon by clicking the poster below. Price is the same across the board. It is made by Epix. There's Something Wrong With The Children (2023) #horror #IMDB #Plex

My quick rating - 2.8/10. I saw a trailer a while back and thought this one looked creepy. It is one of my least favorites, a found footage type flick, sorta. It is more just constant camera cuts showing different angles of footage. Sometimes these angles appear to be from the children's perspectives. Very "experimental" type of film style, for lack of a better way to put it. So far seems to be a massive test of the viewer's patience. I don't mind a slow burn, especially sinc

My quick rating - 3.4/10. Available on most streamers for 7 bucks including Amazon but I'd wait, already doesn't look promising lol. Night Train (2023) #action #IMDB #Plex

My quick rating - 6.5/10. Entertaining, although an extremely tame horror flick, written in part by James Wan . I am sure that you have a...

My quick rating - 5.9/10. Just caught my eye so going to give it a look. Another one of those Netflix exclusives so it is streaming there right now. Jung_e (2023) #scifi #IMDB #Plex

My quick rating - 7.5/10. (That was from when I watched this in Indonesian with subtitles. I now have a dubbed & uncut version that is eye-friendly, so I'll see if it changes). The story is quite simple. A corrupt police force is sent in to bust a paranoid crime lord's 30-story drug haven. I would love to say I noticed the differences in this uncut version, but I did watch it the first time about a decade ago, so there wasn't anything that jumped out at me. However, that didn

My quick rating - 5.4/10. Finally got my hands on this one. Hopefully, that trailer I was showing wasn't the only decent part of this flick. This time AppleTV and Amazon are the expensive ones so I won't fault you for checking with Google , Youtube , Vudu or Microsoft for 2 bucks cheaper (but click the poster below just for my numbers) Pussycake (2021) #horror #IMDB #Plex
