My quick rating - 4.5/10. I Saw the TV Glow is one of those movies that promises a hypnotic, mind-bending experience yet I was just staring at the screen, wondering, “Wait, that’s it?” The poster glows with promise, and to its credit, the movie does draw you in with an intriguing setup and some great atmosphere. But when the credits roll, I was left feeling like I had watched someone else’s dream that forgot to end properly. At its core, it’s a coming-of-age story with a supe

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

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

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

My quick rating - 4.7/10. It was the middle of the road, and didn't try to be all about fighting or comedy, more drama really. The acting was fine, and yes, Triple H held his own, not getting wrapped up in the WWE thing. Michael Rapaport was good for comedy. Plot was exactly what you expect, released from prison, drawn back into crime....etc. Parker Posey was great (what else is new). If you go in like some jackasses will, assuming it's a wrestling flick, you will say it su

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

My quick rating - 7.4/10. Time to hit another best picture nominee. Such a great story of a child's journey to becoming a renowned director. The movie itself is a semi-biographical tale of how Steven Spielberg became the influential artist we all know him to be. I have to admit that he is easily one of the biggest influences on my love for film, and I am sure many in my age group feel the same. So the chance to take a look at what shaped his incredible vision was a movie tha

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 - 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
