Ferrari: A Disaster in Slow Motion

There is not much worth saying about Ferrari, it fluctuates between average and a little above average during it’s runtime and it doesn’t do anything to captivate the audience’s attention. There were a couple of interesting moments where I thought “ohh that’s interesting that Enzo Ferrari did that” and then it dips back down into […]

Dune: Part 2. A Worthwhile Sequel?

Dune 2 is a direct upgrade to Dune, it keeps the beauty of the world, the power of the music and the immersion in the world building. My main gripe with Dune was that it didn’t finish in a satisfying place, which is understandable seeing as it’s in the middle of a book but I […]

Moulin Rouge!: Should The Show Go On?

This film reminds me a lot of the Greatest Showman, which I feel was better in several ways. When “Moulin Rouge!” started, for the first 30 minutes I wasn’t sure what I was getting myself in for, but after that I started to enjoy the film a lot more and was captivated by how there […]

Did Predestination Fail Before It Started?

I am rarely so divided on my experience with a film. I thought this film was setting up a time travel thriller but it really isn’t, it has been given the “action” genre but that is not accurate. Nothing of interest happens in the first hour of this 90 minute movie; I was wondering when […]

The Room: Why You Should(n’t) Watch It.

A film that follows the relationship of an engaged couple and their friends, and how their lives are impacted by friction within those relationships. If you’ve heard of this film, you’ve heard that it is bad and…it is. Films like this, help you to appreciate the mediocre films as there are so many things that […]

Room: A Waste of Space?

Room at its core is about relationships, communication and perseverance. It is a very touching film about a young mother raising a child in a difficult environment. This film is an outstanding portrayal of human nature: where it is beautiful and where it is ugly, and I was gripped by it. I wasn’t so engrossed […]

Coach Carter: Just Another Sport Biopic?

Coach Carter is a High School basketball movie, based on true events, about respect, commitment and self-improvement. I thought this film was good, the story was solid, the message was good, it was well paced, and it was interesting. My only criticism is that there was a subplot which I thought was nice but didn’t […]

Should you Watch The Iron Claw?

I went into the Iron Claw not knowing much about it besides that it was produced by A24, it had an 8/10 on IMDB, Zac Efron was in it, it was biopic about wrestling. I unfortunately don’t have a whole lot to say about it, I thought it was well made and there were some […]
