The TODDcast

Cena sells it. Gunn owns it.  The Suicide Squad was just the beginning. Warner- quit messing around and let Gunn run the DCEU. #peacemaker #hbomax

How can you tell a delusional lie from the truth?  This mini-series from Shonda Rimes doesn't really help much. Well-told but admittedly false in parts. Might be better reading the books? #netflix #inventinganna

Well-produced and makes the case against the capitalistic bent that caused two airliner crashes. If you are unaware of the story, worth watch. Fails to nail the regulators to their failure because Boeing essentially gets a slap on the wrist. #downfall #netflix 

Just in time for Valentines! Day and Slate mix it up well. The writing/direction is pretty spot on. The romance and comedy are earned in this standard story elevated by not being terribly hokey. #amazonprime #iwantyouback #valentines

Wendigo myth as addiction metaphor? Check. Pleamons and Russell as siblings fighting creature. Pretty good. Cooper with DelToro assist does good job in horror as metaphor. #antlers #hbomax

Koepp delivers a post-modern "Rear Window" that mostly works. Acting money is saved on only have Kravitz and a few no names. Soderbergh has mastered this low-budget thriller.  #hbomax #kimi

Oscar lovers might love. Horror or noir fans will be left wanting. I love Del Toro and his skills are here just not for editing and story.  #nightmarealley #deltoro #hbomax

Ritchson nails the attitude and physical capability of the iconic character. Cast does able support especially Willa Fitzgerald. Fans of the books will love more than the Cruise movies in particular. #reacher #amazonprime #ritchson

A spiritual sequel to "A Christmas Story" set in the 80s! NPH totally nails it as narrator/father. A worthy addition to #xmasmovie rotation. #hbomax #8bitchristmas #xmasmovies

My review sounds negative. I enjoyed it but felt it could have been better. As a "requel" it works, but where does it go from here #screammovies #scream #ghostface

PTL this biopic does a good job. Chastain and Garfield embody the couple pretty well.  Worth a watch even if they didn't bilk you. #hbomax #eyesoftammyfaye

This is going to win awards.  The ensemble carrying off a killer dialogue laden script is why.  #massmovie #oscarbait

Ever wanted to see a live-action cartoon of Bugs and Daffy in an action movie? This approximates it. With Salma Hayek unable to speak without cursing. Turn your brain off and it works.  #hitmanswifesbodyguard #hbomax 

Any one of the characters in the bar would have been more interesting than the lead. Narration by Ron Livingston is good, the kid version is good.  Falls apart in adulthood and works better as an unofficial sequel to Affleck's character from Good Will Hunting.  #thetenderbar #amazonprime #goodwillhunting #affleck

The adventures of Johnny and Daniel-san continue with their kids and students. Excellent choices except for how they brought back Silver. (Glad they did) If you like the other seasons, its worth it.  #karatekid #cobrakai #netflix

No spoilers other than this is a "remix sequel". As an OG fanboy, this worked for me. I can see why some are unhappy, but this worked for me unlike much of the OG sequels. #matrixresurrections #hbomax

A satire needs to be funnier and less literal than this. Mark Rylance steals the show as a faux Jobs/Musk/Zuckerberg hybrid but not enough. I love McKay but not this. #dontlookup #netflix

Desperately wanted to review each episode.  This is not your comic book Hawkeye and that's not a bad thing. Welcome to new Black Widow, Kate Bishop and Echo!  And #pizzadog rocks #hawkeye #disneyplus

Buddy cop comedy at Christmas that ISN'T Lethal Weapon? Yep- thanks Hines and Crystal for bringing the funny. Great music and set pieces enliven this classic. #runningscared #12daysofxmasmovies

There is no debate. Go watch. Yipey Ki Yeah and Merry Xmas #diehard #12daysofxmasmovies

Bardem and character actors like Simmons elevate Sorkin. Poor editing choices and Kidman being unable to keep an accent hurt. Not enough to not recommend, but this is NOT an award winner.  #amazonprime #beingthericardos

Classist experiment with PCP off the rails?  Dan Ackroyd in most disgusting Santa outfit topping Bad Santa? Topless Jamie Lee Curtis?  #tradingplaces #12daysofxmasmovies

Xmas horror done right. Hate to spoil but this has more to do with Krampus than Silent Night. Very fun but takes itself seriously. #rareexports #12daysofxmasmovies

Leary as snarky thief taking bickering couple hostage? Ransom Of Red Chief?  Yeah, it's that good. #theref #12daysofxmasmovies

Believe the hype. Spoilers be damned. Best of the Holland films by far. #spidermannowayhome #nowayhome #spiderman
