Missed the Mark

Rounders brings a high stakes, fast paced, underground world of poker that makes you want to buy into the story and characters!

Death is kind of a dick!

The Foreigner is a lean and mean action political thriller with a once in a lifetime powerful performance by Jackie Chan!

What would be a run of the mill courtroom thriller is elevated by Edward Norton's stellar film debut and powerful ending! 

We take a trip together down nostalgia road and revisit the beloved Chris Farley film Tommy Boy!

Stir Echoes had the misfortune of releasing the same year as The Sixth Sense, but how does it ultimately hold up against the occult classic?

Blood Diamond has some epic action sequences and fantastic acting in an otherwise uneven movie that feels like a PSA by the end!

Venom is a chopped up, unevely paced tonal mess that is ultimately saved by Tom Hardy's captivating performance!

Although now considered a Sci-Fi classic with a more and more relevant message today, Starship Troopers was a very misunderstood work of satire upon it's initial release.

Does Austin Powers stand the test of the time as a stone-cold comedy classic or just another spoof that has aged like milk?

Despite some stellar performances, especially Johnny Depp's, Black Mass is hindered by a weak script from being anything more than just another mobster movie.

While the concepts and worldbuilding for Reign of Fire are compelling, the film is bogged down by a weak script and underwhelming action that leave you feeling a little hollow at the end.

25 years later, Guy Ritchie's first feature film is still an absolute banger!

The final film of our annual movie dump month is The Book of Eli! This post apocalyptic story has plenty of good action and acting but feels barren and a little hollow with it's plot and twist ending!

Third up on our annual movie dump month is Boiler Room, a financial crime drama that just almost on the level of The Big Short or The Wall of Wall Street!

Next up on our annual movie dump month is The Pale Blue Eye. This historical fiction detective mystery is so close to being great, but falls short with a lack of tension and a cheap twist!

For this year's dump month, we check out 90's stoner comedy, Half Baked! How has it aged?

We say farewell to 2023 with The Long Kiss Goodnight. Christmas wouldn't be complete without a holiday action movie! Happy Holidays and a Happy New Year!

Hard Target is like Van Damme's mullet, a business in the front and a party in the back!

Kong Skull Island is a hell of a roller coaster ride with some awesome action sequences, memorable character deaths, and satisfying visuals!

And not a single sandwich joke was made... Pathetic!

Arlington Road is a slow burn of a story ends with a bombshell! Unfortunately, the more you think about how you got there, the more it begins to unravel...

Tombstone earns its place as a historical Western classic thanks to a compelling story and lots of memorable and sleek performances!

Quite possibly one of the dumbest and most incoherent action movies we have ever watched that really thinks it's really smart, edgy, and stylish!

For Halloween 2023, we continue our yearly tradition of watching spooky movies all month. Our final film is the fantastically fun Army of Darkness!
