3.5 out of 5 stars (above average) Note: If you have epilepsy and/or issues with prolonged loud noises, do not see Godzilla Vs Kong. Godzilla Vs Kong knows exactly what it is, what audiences want from it, and gives them just that. If you enjoyed the human focus in Godzilla, Kong: Skull Island, and Godzilla:… Continue Reading
Zack Snyder’s Justice League: A Flawed, Fun Superhero Epic
3.5 out of 5 stars (Above Average) Zack Snyder’s Justice League is an extended cut of the largely unmemorable DC team-up film from 2017. Split into parts, this version restores director Zack Snyder’s original vision and ends the story in stirring fashion.

Sadly, an underdeveloped supporting… Continue Reading

Charlie’s Angels: Well-Cast Comedy is Clever, Fun And Empowering
3 out of 5 stars (average) The trailers for Charlie’s Angels are misrepresenting it. Watching the trailer, you get the impression that it will be yet another self-congratulatory continuation (not a reboot) with a minimal plot that revels in its perceived greatness. Thankfully, the movie itself is none of those things, updating its source material… Continue Reading
