Film Review: “Ant Man & The Wasp: Quantumania”

Has Marvel jumped the shark? — For 15 years, The Marvel Cinematic Universe has gone on to become one of the most successful film franchises to date. While the MCU may have had their highs with films such as “Endgame”, “Winter Soldier”, & “Iron Man”, they’ve recently had a few misfires as well. Aside from “Hawkeye”…

The 10 Worst Movies of 2022

10 films that just simply didn’t work for me — Every year, there is always a debate on whether making a “Worst list” is ethical or not. People often say “you’re a terrible person for doing this” or get completely angry, claiming that I’m being mean-spirited. Don’t get me wrong, I get it. There are people who act in bad…

The 22 Best Movies of 2022 (Part 2 of 2)

Covering #10–#1 — Welcome back! For the first half of this list, Click here. Before we continue on with my Top 10 best films of 2022, Here is a list of Honorable Mentions: - “Pearl”: I wasn’t too big on this film at the start but, I came around to it. Mia Goth and Ti West are a great actor/director duo but, “X” edges this one out for me as far as what movie is better - “Clerks III”: It’s “Spider-Man: No Way Home” for Jay & Silent Bob fans: a celebration of what makes the view askewniverse great and a heartfelt exploration of loss, friendship, and making every day of your life count.

The 22 Best Movies of 2022 (Part 1 of 2)

Covering #22-#11 — 2022 was quite a year in film. I truly feel like we were spoiled this year with great film after great film. It’s been a very long time since we had a year where I had a very hard time narrowing my best-of-the-year list down to simply just 10. So…

Film Review: “Iron Man 3” (2013)

Yes, it’s a Christmas movie. (Spoilers included) — It’s that time of year when families get together, people trample each other to death at your local Walmart because their secret Santa pick was an estranged relative, and spoiled rich kids post their brand-new cars and Rolexes on Instagram. In other words, It’s Christmas. In the film world, that…

Film Review: “Avatar: The Way of Water” (2022)

Not too shabby, Jim. — When we last visited the beautiful world of Pandora, it was in the year 2009. I was a freshman in high school who was both an angsty teenager and floored by the visuals of James Cameron's Oscar-Winning Blockbuster. I embraced the wave of 3D films that came in afterward, attempting…

Film Review: “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever” (2022)

An emotionally satisfying conclusion to Marvel’s phase 4. — When we last visited Wakanda, it was in 2018 with both “Black Panther” and “Avengers: Infinity War”. The former was a very well-made film that, despite having a formulaic plot, made a strong impact on audiences mostly due to its cultural representation. The latter was a subversive and intense event…

Film Review: “Black Adam” (2022)

Dim-witted yet delightful As I begin to discuss the latest film to both star The Rock and be based on a beloved DC Comics character, allow me to state the obvious: yes, Superhero movies have gotten old. So old, that they can be seen ordering cheap meals at your local…

How Halloween Really Ends: Spoiler-Discussion

My Spoiler-filled thoughts on “Halloween Ends” — As of writing this, I have seen “Halloween Ends” twice. Upon both viewings, my opinion has not changed. I walked away satisfied with the conclusion of David Gordon Green’s trilogy. It’s far from a perfect movie and I definitely have a plethora of issues with it but, I overall enjoyed…
