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.

Once Upon a Deadpool Movie Review: A Chopped Up and Muddled Deadpool 2 that Remains Fun

Once Upon a Deadpool is weird. And not in the way I expected. It is a PG-13 version of Deadpool 2 portrayed as a storybook that Deadpool is reading to Fred Savage in a perfectly recreated set of The Princess Bride. That's weird. The weird that I didn't expect was the odd choices of censorship. … Continue reading Once Upon a Deadpool Movie Review: A Chopped Up and Muddled Deadpool 2 that Remains Fun →
