Women Talking (2022)
My quick rating - 6.4/10. Last #Oscars2023 nominee for me to catch before the show. Avatar The Way of Water isn't available quite yet. I will say upfront, I have no idea what this is even about, and obviously have not read the book, so I am going in completely blind. I did a quick bit of reading to enlighten myself on the subject since the conversations seemed a bit too "real" to me. Took no time to find this: " The film is a striking interpretation of a novel that is loosel

The Outwaters (2022)
My quick rating - 2.9/10. There must've been something interesting about this one to make me put a found footage flick on my Radarr list. They do have a damn good quality camera, that is for sure. I didn't realize that was the spoiler, a great camera. But after that first 45 minutes of meeting the people on this trip, it turned into a constant black screen with an occasional flashlight spot. But don't worry, since complete darkness will be accompanied by constant screaming fo

Infinity Pool (2023)
My quick rating - 5.5/10. Tons of potential here, but absolutely doesn't live up to the ideas they had. Mia Goth wasted a really good performance on this one. You can check this one out on most streamers for $9.99 currently. Infinity Pool (2023) #horror #IMDB #Plex

Plane (2023)
My quick rating - 6.4/10. I definitely enjoyed that one more than I was expecting. We get a very believable Gerard Butler as a pilot who happens to get the unfortunate flight through a minefield of a storm and a convict, Mike Colter , as a passenger. I think the poster clues you in on the fact that the plane goes down, and they have to team up to try and not only survive, but save the passengers. The effects in this one, as far as said crash landings, look extremely good, es

Unwelcome (2023)
My quick rating - 4.5/10. Another one marred by a stupid ending. All I could think of after it got rolling was a cross between Troll (1986) and Puppet Master . This horror flick is about a married couple, Maya ( Hannah John-Kamen ) and Jamie ( Douglas Booth ), who move to rural Ireland to start a new life after being targeted by a home invasion back in the city. However, their peaceful existence is soon shattered when they discover malevolent goblins lurking in the ancient w

Alice, Darling (2023)
My quick rating - 4.4/10. SO boring. If it wasn't for a really good performance by Anna Kendrick , it might be a #turkey. I think even I am being too generous with this one since so little happens throughout this whole flick. The whole thing is a very subtle cry for help by Kendrick as her "man" ( Charlie Carrick ) is controlling her life. We see these moments happen through occasional flashbacks while she is on a trip with her girlfriends for a birthday weekend. It is quite

The Banshees Of Inisherin (2022)
My quick rating - 8.0/10. I have already heard great things about this Oscar nominee. And for very good reason, as two things stuck out to me. First is the fact that you will have to be in the right kind of mood for this flick. The second is the incredible performances by Colin Farrell and Brendan Gleeson . You have to realize this is a dark comedy that explores the complex dynamics of friendship and the devastating consequences that can arise when those relationships break

Knock At The Cabin (2023)
My quick rating - 6.0/10. Good to start out right away with a creepy Dave Bautista . The flick presents an intriguing premise with its mix of hostage drama and apocalyptic themes. The film follows a family on vacation, who are unexpectedly taken hostage by armed strangers. As the situation unfolds, the family is presented with a life-altering choice that could potentially avert the end of the world. The performances of the cast are generally solid, with Bautista doing a comm

Die Hart: The Movie (2023)
My quick rating - 5.0/10. I never did check out the TV show on Roku , so I am going solely off of this flick, which I guess is the episodes edited into movie form. Seems the latest trend for stars is to make a parody of themselves. There are far better examples of this happening lately after JCVD got the whole idea started. This flick follows Kevin Hart 's fictionalized journey to become an action movie star. The film revolves around his enrollment in a school run by Ron Wi

The Monster Mash (2022)
My quick rating - 5.4/10. Looks like this one is going to be a B-budget anthology of sorts. Whispering Hollow Road is story number one and sees an "older guy picking up a stranded girl" story. We already see what it is he likes to film shortly before finding this new girl. Most of the time, they'll make it look like the car is moving with scenes out the window, maybe shaking the car. Not this movie. Just dead black and doesn't even bother trying to make it look like movement

Deaths Of Ian Stone (2007)
My quick rating - 6.8/10. By far the best film of the After Dark film festival from 2007 (if you don't know what that is, look it up!) Anyway, the plot was excitingly original. You are hunted and killed every day and wake up in a new life. Sound confusing? At first, it will be since you have to figure out why you are so important and who that woman is who keeps appearing. The story is woven extremely well, and the journey is by far better than the destination. This is one of

Triangle Of Sadness (2022)
My quick rating - 7.1/10. Another one of the Oscar nominees this year, and one I have no idea what it is about. That scene on the boat during the storm is priceless. I'll digress. The movie presents a captivating story of a group of strangers who meet on a luxurious yacht that takes them on a journey they never imagined. The film cleverly examines the dynamics of the human psyche and how people react under extreme pressure and stress. The characters presented are all quite u

Blood Harvest (2023)
My quick rating - 3.8/10. Always good to see the very underrated Robert LaSardo pop up in flix, although I prefer seeing him in things with a bit more production quality than this one. He and Greg Nutcher were the only familiar faces and, coincidentally, the only ones who could act in the slightest. Not that B-budget horror flicks are known for their acting, but the others, especially the kids, seemed oblivious to everything going on. The family is desperate and forced to t

Re/Member (2022)
My quick rating - 5.5/10. I am quite glad that stuff such as this is finding its way over a bit easier now. Not that this is some monumental flick like Parasite was, but still entertaining and wouldn't have found a way to my screen a decade ago. It opens up quite nicely, and I have to say I was genuinely really enjoying the narrative this one laid out. It opens with a schoolgirl being hunted by a monster and killed. It then cuts to Asuka ( Kanna Hashimoto ), who hears a voic

Tar (2022)
My quick rating - 6.5/10. This Oscar nominee is one that I know very little about. I did catch Cate Blanchett on the Colbert Show during her press tour and got a quick rundown of the basic story, but before that, I knew nothing about the fictional composer. This flick explores the complexities of the international world of Western classical music, with a focus on the life and work of the fictional composer Lydia Tár. The film features a talented cast, including Cate Blanche

Peacemaker: Season 1 (2022)
My quick rating - 8.0/10. You will never look at John Cena the same way after watching this one. Heck, just after the clearly TikTok-inspired intro, you'll be wondering if you really can't see him LOL. If you didn't see Suicide Squad (2021) , Peacemaker is one of the anti-superheroes from that flick. This pretty much immediately follows that movie, although it isn't really necessary to check it out first before jumping into this show. Cena plays a guy who is at the top of p
