There is one line in this movie that sums up the entire movie's mindset. I don't remember it too well, so I'm paraphrasing here: "I know it might not make sense at first, but I assure you it does." This movie's dumb. I don't want to talk about it any more. 4/10

John Wick Chapter 3: Parabellum – Quick Thoughts
The John Wick series continues to push the action movie bar higher and higher with each entry, creating action movie perfection that oozes with passion and creativity. Every action scene is so well thought through and so badass, that your eyes forget to blink while you relish in the glory. Keanu Reeves is still a … Continue reading John Wick Chapter 3: Parabellum – Quick Thoughts
Pokemon: Detective Pikachu – Quick Thoughts
Detective Pikachu is an incredibly fun mix of Zootopia and Who Framed Roger Rabbit? that is a must see for even the most casual of Pokemon fans. I was entranced by the amazing CGI Pokemon and the world that they inhabited even when the plot started to feel a little familiar. The banter between Ryan … Continue reading Pokemon: Detective Pikachu – Quick Thoughts
Avengers: Endgame – Quick Thoughts
What can I say that hasn't already been said? This movie is an outstanding accomplishment. Weaving so many stories together so seamlessly while still being approachable to casual fans is a feat that should not be taken for granted. The ending is just perfect. Both Captain America and Iron Man got amazing sendoffs that will … Continue reading Avengers: Endgame – Quick Thoughts
Hellboy (2019) – Quick Thoughts
This movie, man. This movie's something. I was extremely excited for this movie. The casting of David Harbour is inspired and that second trailer kicked ass. When the embargo dropped, and the nasty reviews started trickling in, I was worried, but I still had hope. It couldn't be that bad, right? So I saw it … Continue reading Hellboy (2019) – Quick Thoughts
Shazam! – Quick Thoughts
Whoopsies! Bad opinion alert! Avert your eyes! Shazam! is my favorite superhero movie of the year so far. Even though it is first and foremost a comedy, (and it sure delivers on that front) Shazam! has a really effective emotional center to it. The depiction of the foster family feels genuine and it grounds the movie … Continue reading Shazam! – Quick Thoughts
Captain Marvel – Quick Thoughts
A perfectly fine origin story that is in line with the original Thor in terms of tone and quality. Space Ben Mendelson and young Nick Fury take it up from a meh to a good. Pretty weak compared to the other movies in Phase 3. 7/10
How to Train Your Dragon 3: The Hidden World – Quick Thoughts
I love the original How to Train Your Dragon to death. It's a 10/10 in my eyes. The sequel wasn't as good, but it had amazing action and an ending that packed a punch. I was hoping that the third and final entry would be just as enjoyable and poignant as the first two, but … Continue reading How to Train Your Dragon 3: The Hidden World – Quick Thoughts
Glass Quick Thoughts
I was a fool. I was sure that Glass would be good. I trusted Shyamalan. Why would he connect Split to Unbreakable if he didn't know what to do with the story? He didn't know what to do with the story. It felt cheap, lazy, and disrespectful to both Split and Unbreakable. Glass was bad. … Continue reading Glass Quick Thoughts
Upgrade Movie Review: a Brutal and Bad-Ass Vision of the Future
I can't stop thinking about Upgrade. It is embedded into my mind like STEM is embedded into Upgrade's protagonist. STEM allows a man, (who I call Tom Hardy-ish) who was paralyzed in an attack from a high-tech gang that killed his wife, to walk again. It soon becomes sentient and helps Tom Hardy-ish find his … Continue reading Upgrade Movie Review: a Brutal and Bad-Ass Vision of the Future
