It's Oscar time again and time to see if anyone can beat my picks! Now I know and I much later than normal getting these posted, but what can I say....it's been a crazy year! With any luck this is the first of many new posts to come, so please bear with me and don't forget to bookmark as well as share my pages!
So...on to my predictions!
Read MoreTo say that 'Suicide Squad' suffers from too thin of a plot is giving it far too much credit. While this muddle of a mess boosts a fantastic cast, with little storyline...
Read MoreWhile we are still months away from the Academy Award season, the race for Best Actor is on and Bryan Cranston as the real life US Customs agent Robert 'Bob' Mazur is a few steps ahead of the pack.
Read MoreThose looking for a remake or sequel of the original 'Ghostbusters' will be disappointed. While there are plenty of nods to the classic 1984 blockbuster,..
Read MoreLet’s put this out there first, screwball ‘R’ rated comedies are really not for everyone. I’m ok with that, just like Romance or Action movies are not for everyone.,
Read MoreThey have been trying to make a decent Tarzan movies for years. Since 1918 there have been 48 attempts to bring the jungle hero to film, the last three were direct to video Disney animation films.
Read MoreI like writer/director Shane Black, I really do. He has written some very good films, including the first 'Lethal Weapon' and the often maligned, but fantastic 'Long Kiss Goodnight' to directing & writing 'Iron Man 3', 'Kiss, Kiss, Bang, Bang' (another fantastic one) and others
Read MoreEvery so often, I make a big blunder when it comes to movies. Normally. I don't make snap judgements based on a trailer or even the subject of a film, no matter how bad it may seem, I do try and get to it. I made a big, BIG, mistake with 'Zootopia'.
Read MoreWell cast, even well directed, 'Money Monster' has a lot going for it except for a compelling storyline that holds the viewer for the entire 90 minutes.
Read MoreThese days, superhero movies are coming out on a weekly basis, even for a comic nerd from way back like me, it's starting to get a little exhausting. But then something happens to shake everything up. Just like in the comic book world,
Read MoreI've always heard the old adage that fact is often stranger than fiction; in the case of 'Elvis & Nixon' the adage holds very true indeed! In 1970, Elvis apparently thought the country was going in the wrong direction so he decided to do something about it.
Read MoreLet's face it, no one goes to a Garry Marshall film to be challenged. Much like the sitcoms he is really known for (Happy Days, Laverne & Shirley, Mork & Mindy), most go to Garry Marshall films to be simply entertained. Please note, I emphasized simply.
Read MoreTom Hanks has made an outstanding career by making perfect choices of the roles he plays even despite a few of his misfires ('Joe vs the Volcano' or 'Bon of the Vanities').
Read MoreWhile visually stunning in many ways, 'The Huntsman: Winter's War' has very little else going for it. It's a prequel/sequel that for the life of me I still can't figure out the purpose.
Read MoreDisney has certainly raised the bar with the amazing 'The Jungle Book'! You've read the book as a child, if you're like me, you saw the original animated classic in the theaters;
Read MoreSally Field returns to the big screen and man am I glad to see her! In her new film 'Hello, My Name is Doris', Field (as the title character Doris) simply shines and proves once again just how great of an actress she is.
Read MoreI am convinced that Melissa McCarthy is the best female comedian in film today; she is also simply the best 'R' rated comedian in film. But for some reason,
Read MoreWhile it doesn't really live up to the original, 'My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2' is a harmlessly cute film that delivers genuine smiles throughout. Writer and star Nia Vardalos once again revisits her nutty family, only this time,
Read MoreAs everyone who reads my reviews knows, I am a comic book geek since I could pick up the tattered pulp pages of 'Action' comics. There has been very few adaptations of comics to the screen that I have been able to find fault with. Since I was a kid,
Read MoreI have to admit, I am not a big fan of 'Faith Based' films. Most tend to be too preachy and slap you in the face with right wing Christian views. However, with an outstanding performance from Jennifer Garner
