Better Man is a strange biopic about Robbie Williams, as a cgi chimp. I recall seeing the trailers and wondering who in their right mind would go to this. Then I watched it and was incredibly impressed. That doesn't make my concerns any less valid. Folks did not show up for Better Man and the reason was obvious.

The Flash movie was a financial failure and just one of several in a row for the DCEU. The Flash director decided now is a good time to remind people that even talented director's can have some pretty terrible opinions. He blames the failure of the movie on the lack of popularity of The Flash. Stating that people didn't go to the movie because The Flash just isn't that popular of a character. I'm...

Here are my Top 10 picks for movies in 2025 that will probably suck. I checked out the lineup for 2025 and a few movies stood at as troubles spots. I think Snow White looks like a complete train wreck. I still can't believe Mel Gibson directed Flight Risk. It looks really rough. Then there's the Minecraft Movie. What were they thinking? Sprinkle in a hot-take like Avatar 3 being terrible, and you...

There are some awesome movies making their way to theaters in 2025. Today I give you 10 films that I'm very excited to see! M3GAN managed to bring a unique twist to the evil doll genre and I think M3GAN 2.0 will go way harder. James Gunn has a massive job to do with Superman and I think he's the perfect director to bring it home. Prey turned out to be a great entry into the Predator franchise so h...

Ad Vitam Movie Review - Well here we are. The first streaming-exclusive film on Netflix I've watched for 2025. It's about as bland as expected. In fact, the biggest crime Ad Vitam has going for it is just how formulaic and basic it is. Let's talk about it!

Better Man Movie Review - Robbie Williams stars as a cgi ape in Better Man. The film is based on his true story but with an obvious twist. I was absolutely floored by the quality of this picture. The music, the choreography, the story; it all worked. I think fans of Robbie Williams will really appreciate this film while newcomers should have no problem getting into the strange presentation. See Pr...

I already mentioned my picks for worst movies of 2024 but 10 other films managed to disappointment me almost as much. Today I go over 10 movies that I was very excited to check out but ended up either disliking or being let down. Films like Longlegs and Nosferatu had huge buzz from fellow movie critics. I felt mislead after seeing them for myself. I hated those films! Moana 2 was not a total waste...

Mufasa: The Lion King is now in theaters and I just can't bring myself to sit through this crap anymore. I have been trying for years to give these Disney live-action movies a chance and they almost always fail to be anything more than soulless cash-grabs. They are lame remakes of beloved classics that exist only to make money and pretend to be some modern take for a new generation. When in realit...

Conclave Movie Review - Great actors, stunning filmography, sharp writing. Conclave seems like a sure-fire win. Well it was, until it wasn't. The first 2/3rds are interesting, engaging and intriguing. Then it all kinda falls apart in the last act, leaving me with a "that's it?" sort of attitude. Conclave is still worth a watch but maybe keep expectations low. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.co...

Carry-On Movie Review - Taron Egerton and Jason Bateman star in Carry-On, an exclusive Netflix movie. Streaming exclusives have been a very hard thing to watch this year but Carry-On manages to buck the trend. It felt like an old-school thriller with a simple premise, solid performances and enough exciting twists to keep the film fun. Carry-On was a easy watch! See Privacy Policy at https://art19....

Nosferatu Movie Review - Robert Eggers crafts a really beautiful, really dull Nosferatu film in 2024. We've had several versions of this movie and the character but this was easily the most disappointing attempt. Mainly because I had such high hopes for this film. Eggers has directed some great films like The Witch and The Northman. In fact, The Northman was one of my favorite films a few years ba...

Wicked Movie Review - Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo star in Wicked: Part 1. A 2 1/2 hour musical that could have easily fallen on it's face. The film has some big scale and great performances but I did find the direction to be lacking polish. Even with my hangups though, Wicked provides great music, wonderful characters and enough charm to sustain the lengthy journey. I look forward to Part II!...

Gladiator II Movie Review - Ridley Scott returns to his iconic franchise for a sequel, 24 years later. Gladiator II is another legacy sequel that tells a very similar story, makes lots of references and isn't as good as the original.

Dear Santa Movie Review - Jack Black ruins Christmas as Satan. This "comedy" has almost completely void of humor with bad acting, miserable direction and some sad looking effects going on. Dear Santa completely misses the mark on all levels. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

How To Train Your Dragon just came out with a new live-action movie teaser trailer. It likes about as lifeless and empty as all the Disney live-action crap. I am really getting sick of all these modern reboots of classics. They never amount to anything exciting and always pale in comparison to the original. I rant for a good while about the live-action trend and how it needs to change! See Privacy...

Red One Explained - Spoiler Breakdown. Dwayne "The Coal" Johnson teams up with Chris Evans in an action-packed Christmas film, called Red One. Santa Claus is kidnapped, forcing Callum Drift (Dwayne Johnson) to team up with an unlikely ally. This premise is fun but unfortunately the movie is played far too seriously and the action is at times very hard to see. A big budget Christmas movie could wor...

There has been articles swarming about Robert Englund wanting Kevin Bacon to play the role of Freddy Krueger. We think Kevin Bacon is great but way too old for the role. We also give our own ideas about who could play Freddy Krueger if the character ever gets free from the estate that holds him captive!

Red One Movie Review - An action Christmas movie for the whole family just hit theaters. It's called Red One. I mean, it's supposed to be a Christmas movie for the family. I'm not sure what it actually is. An Avengers-style action movie for adults? A silly comedy for kids? It's unclear and it doesn't seem to go one direction or the other. Red One is a large piece of coal in your stocking. See Priv...

Lately I've been seeing more 90 minute movies pop up and I think that's a great thing. More often than not, a mediocre film can be made better with a tighter edit. The opposite is also true. I fine movie can be hampered by long, pointless scenes. I talk for a bit about the pros and cons of longer films and why I gravitate towards shorter movies.

Hot Frosty Movie Review - Netflix is back with their newest holiday movie to rival Hallmark. It even stars Hallmark royalty, Lacy Chabert!
