The balls on this guy.
Crawl
It’s suspenseful torture.
As a viewer I rarely felt at ease, whether it be in the crawl space below the house or within the flooded streets you always had a feeling that one of these reptiles was watching, waiting to leap from the waters and take with it an arm, leg or head.
Midsommar
It’s like an accident on the side of the road where you drive by and can’t help yourself from looking. You don’t know why you look but you continue to do so, knowing full well that what you may see could be shockingly horrible and at the same time hoping that everything for the most part will be alright for those involved.
That’s kind of like how Midsommar is… and once you watch it there’s no un-watching it.
Godzilla: King of the Monsters
The newest installment of Godzilla: king of Monsters is bad. It’s really bad.
There was a handful of people at my viewing that walked out and another gentleman that feel asleep in the first 15 minutes, who’s snores filled the auditorium for the next hour until another audience member finally woke him up and said stay up or get out!
If placed in the same position again as that gentleman… I’d prefer the latter.
Hellboy
This reboot directed by Neil Marshal is borderline unwatchable. The backstory is boring and redundant. The side characters are 2-dimensional and forgettable. It’s made to look like Del Toro’s original creations but it lacks authenticity and the execution staggers along a whimsical clutter of flashbacks and painful exposition.
US
How does a comedian who’s second directorial film become the most anticipated original horror film in history? When that first…
Captain Marvel
No one does superhero origin stories quite like Marvel and in it’s newest release Captain Marvel continues that mastery blend…
Glass
Glass drawls you in with the anticipation of the superhero battle between Unbreakable’s (2000) David Dunn (Bruce Willis) and Splits…
Aquaman
Too much exposition from characters with severe mommy and daddy issues haphazardly twisted into a mildly entertaining story with great CGI.
Mary Queen of Scots
It’s an different take from director Josie Rourke, who makes her feature film debut, guided by the charismatic Ronan and Robbie, great cinematography and good directing it’s a very entertaining film from start to finish and gives a bit of food for thought.
