While watching just about every Spielberg movie, I’d heard of it before. His entire filmography is filled with classics, and then there’s Always. It isn’t memorably bad like 1941 or Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, and at the same time, it just isn’t good. This is in part due to how incredibly generic the entireContinue reading “Always Review”

Castello Cavalcanti Review
Of all his shorts, this one is easily my favorite from Anderson. Castello Cavalcanti has the awkward humor, meaningful moments, and the colorful shots we’ve all come to know. Jason Schwartzman’s character was written in such a way that allows him to be the fish out of water the story needs, but also has himContinue reading “Castello Cavalcanti Review”
Hotel Chevalier Review
Hotel Chevalier is a thirteen minute short that feels longer than that. Strangely, this isn’t the worst thing. It’s an incredibly basic premise of a Natalie Portman’s character reuniting with Jason Schwartzman’s. However, it tells everything in an incredibly linear sense. We see Jason Schwartzman go through the acts of brushing his teeth and staringContinue reading “Hotel Chevalier Review”
Bottle Rocket Short Film Review
Although this is the first in Wes Anderson’s long period film making, there are elements that scream Wes Anderson. Sure, the black and white coloring isn’t at all like what we have come to know from him, but, in the way the story plays and dialogue is delivered is what sets this apart from otherContinue reading “Bottle Rocket Short Film Review”
Bill and Ted Face the Music
Bill and Ted Face the Music was an interesting experience for me, as I realized it was the first I’ve seen that has come out in 2020. For this to happen this late is a strange feeling. And, although I wasn’t in a theater, a mindless and fun blockbuster like this is exactly what weContinue reading “Bill and Ted Face the Music”
Cats Review… Yeah, I’m Doing This
What did I just watch? I’ve definetely watched some messed up Indie films in the midst of quarantine, but nothing… NOTHING, compares to this CGI horror fest with a budget of, let me check… Ok, 95 million USD. That’s a whole bunch of flipping money. Ok, where do I start? Well, why don’t I startContinue reading “Cats Review… Yeah, I’m Doing This”
100th Post!!! Ranking all 99 Films I Have Reviewed During Quarantine (Plus Cats)
I think it’s no secret that quarantine has been really long. There is no better way to illustrate that fact better than the number of movies I have watched and reviewed this summer. Now, keep in mind, I haven’t reviewed every film I have watched this year, in fact, there are a lot I haven’tContinue reading “100th Post!!!

Garth Marenghi’s Dark Place Review
Garth Marenghi’s Dark Place is a strange one, and chances are, you haven’t heard of it. But, I can tell you to go watch it right now. The series is absurdly funny, and takes takes the idea of a parody to a new level. Rather than simply making fourth wall jokes, or taking itself tooContinue reading “Garth Marenghi’s Dark Place Review”
Miller’s Crossing Review
Miller’s Crossing is somewhat a merge between the gangster and noir genres. There is the quippy dialogue of a gangster film along with the darker undertones of a noir film. And while this largely works, the merging of genres makes it so some smaller issues are much more prominent. This is helped by a veryContinue reading “Miller’s Crossing Review”
Last Crusade Review
Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, or, as I will be calling thus forward, The Second to Last Crusade serves as a fitting end to one of the best trilogies of all time. While it doesn’t beat Raider’s, it’s a huge step up from the flop that was The Temple of Doom, and brings theContinue reading “Last Crusade Review”
