My quick rating - 7.8/10. Hey Boppers, absolutely LOVE the homage to The Warriors . Anyone who has seen that flick will catch it right...

My quick rating - 4.8/10. A while back, I started compiling the 10 most disgusting movies I could find, and this one was always...

My quick rating - 4.9/10. This film explores the dark but rather eerie aspect that involves two adopted brothers, Tin and Tina, who look rather strangely dark and are raised in an ultra-Catholic manner, making them literally interpret the Holy Bible. Though the film was indeed very engrossing because of its unique storyline and dark environment, it can, however, be deficient in a number of key areas, ultimately giving the viewer a rather mixed bag. First, the fact that the fi

My quick rating - 6.8/10. I was a tremendous young fan of Mork & Mindy growing up, so I am interested in this story. Chris Diamantopoulos does a very nice job playing an extremely complex character in Robin Williams . When it started, I was quite leery of knowing this wasn't going to be just stock footage and loads of interviews in a documentary, but instead a biopic telling a comedic tale of drama about the show's inception and how it was made. Being somewhat picky, I didn

My quick rating - 3.8/10. These keep popping up on Radarr, the latest being number 7, and they have decent ratings on IMDB . I happen to have this one already, so I am going to find out just what it is. It appears we have another "ghost hunter" flick, and this guy, Turner Clay , thinks he is FAR more popular than he is. I can see this is the mockumentary type with a made-up story, which he has a good handle on, creating a believable-looking flick. I know one thing: I'll at le

My quick rating - 7.6/10. The Covenant seems to be a very realistic war flick that drops us in the middle of the very unpleasant experience that is war. This particular war is raging in the country of Afghanistan. This film is directed by Guy Ritchie , which seems like an unusual choice, given the fact that he usually deals with fast-paced, highly action-packed films that involve gangsters. It follows Ahmed, a local interpreter played by Dar Salim , and U.S. Army Sergeant Jo

My quick rating - 3.3/10. Call it morbid curiosity. Oh, wow, these effects are horrible. Do these people know standing across the street from a tornado isn't exactly considered a safe distance? This flick is already insanely laughable, so I really hope they weren't shooting for a serious flick. A sightseeing group, along with a scientist, goes to check out a tornado that seems to just hang out in one place. Then one guy flies his drone into it and supposedly alters the size o

My quick rating - 6.4/10. The game development process. What goes into it? What are the stresses that one may endure? This documentary takes a fairly in-depth look at the lives of 3 particular games being developed, and the personal lives of those creating them (Fez, Super Meat Boy, and Braid). Focusing more on the positive and negative aspects of how the process affects the people involved is what draws you in. There is no acting, action, etc., just the real-life drama that

My quick rating - 3.2/10. We have another anthology flick of sorts. Paula Brasca is a late-night radio DJ with a program where people call to tell her real horror stories, but she keeps getting nagged by an obsessed fan. While the film might have had a very interesting premise, it failed in terms of delivering actual scares, and I found myself begging for more. The film centers around Candy, played by Brasca , a charismatic radio host who hosts a popular late-night show wher

My quick rating - 5.5/10. I laughed on and off, nothing consistent. She seems to try way too hard to be edgy. She also says "Umm.." a lot, which is distracting when it slows down the momentum of her jokes. But material-wise wise she has some good stuff that is a more adult audience watch for a quick half hour of laughs. Arguello couples her larger-than-life stage presence with her brutally honest take on post-pandemic hook-ups and why broke men are better in bed, an explorat

My quick rating - 6.3/10. With the sad news of Treat Williams ' passing, I thought I would watch one of my favorites that is so criminally unknown. I had no idea what this one was the first time I found it on the shelf at West Coast Video one day while I was working. I often discovered new movies just perusing my workplace for something to pop on. We weren't really sticklers about what we watched in the store. Anyways, seeing Joe Piscopo on the cover was enough to draw me i

My quick rating - 7.4/10. I really enjoyed the first one ( REVIEW ), so I am looking forward to this sequel (which is a prequel). Another event length flick at 173 minutes, so plan accordingly. Only a half hour in, and I can say the visual effects are top-notch. This attack scene, to start off with, looked absolutely epic. I think I am going to rewatch the first after this one to really get a grasp of how they link, since this is an astonishingly monumental plan they are par

My quick rating - 5.5/10. Why take the bulletproof vest off? A question I asked myself during the movie . The Mother  is a fast-moving action thriller about a highly trained assassin who crawls out of hiding to protect the daughter she abandoned years earlier. Naturally, this emotional reunion happens while being chased by extremely motivated bad guys who seem to have unlimited ammo, funding, and free time. Jennifer Lopez  plays the titular Mother, and to her credit, she comm

My quick rating - 2.0/10. I put this on because of a 69-minute run time and no plot while working. WOW, I did not expect such shit, literally. There is NO way that these two main characters had a scripted line for what is going on. Just a general idea of what to talk about or what is next, and let them improvise. Let me assure you that it is NOT a good thing. I am aware of who Mercedes is since she has been linked to a few distributed Troma flix aside from this one in the p

My quick rating - 7.5/10. "I performed and filmed this new comedy special at the Dolby Theater in Hollywood, CA, in early January 2023. It includes a lot of the same material that was in my livestream "Back To The Garden," but it also has a bunch of other stuff that wasn't in that show. Including a totally different closing chunk of jokes. And it is shot more carefully and with more and better cameras. And better editing. I like to think of it this way: "Back To The Gard

My quick rating - 3.8/10. Ultra low budget without any point to it, minus attempting to make it look like film reels spliced together, drive-in style. But there seem to be two stories going on, all existing for an excuse to show boobs. This one takes a bit to get going but there are a couple stories going on here. The first is the 4 satan cheerleaders that are heading into the forest to practice their dark spells. The second is about a woman who is being controlled by some se

My quick rating - 3.8/10. I seemed to get roped into these every time. They know that by advertising Lloyd Kaufman , I'll check it out. Sam Gaffin has definitely created a niche market for these flix. Part animated, part live action, and so creatively done. I really wish he would set out on an actual plot with these and maybe put a bit of work into the story instead of trying to recreate 50s sci-fi silliness. You may have read my review here of a previous effort I saw, whic

My quick rating - 6.5/10. The setting is New England in the 1630s. William ( Ralph Ineson ) and Katherine ( Kate Dickie ) lead a devout Christian life with five children, homesteading on the edge of an impassable wilderness. When their newborn son vanishes, and crops fail, the family turns on one another. Beyond their worst fears, a supernatural evil lurks in the nearby wood. A great looking and sounding movie that plays at the mind more for the horror aspect than it does w

My quick rating - 6.5/10. I am a big fan of hers and pretty much always have been, but this isn't one of her best shows. It isn't awful by any means, but she has done much better. Then again, it has been a decade since her last comedy special, so maybe out of practice? It is her typical borderline raunchy at times, but not all-out profane, touching upon Nazis, "alleged" groups that molest children, and her ever-questioned sexuality. Basically, the usual type of conversation
