- Hell of A Summer (4.4/10)
This 2023 slasher-comedy falls flat. The acting is weak, and the so-called twists and revelations at the end don’t justify sitting through the entire movie. While it offers a few moments of entertainment, it’s ultimately a forgettable watch and an easy pass. " Camp counselor Jason Hochberg thinks his biggest problem is feeling out of touch with his teenage co-workers. What he doesn't know is that a mysterious masked killer is lurking on the campgrounds, brutally picking off victims one by one."
- Together (8.4/10)
This new horror film starring real-life couple Dave Franco and Alison Brie was a pleasant surprise. While it leans heavily into horror, it mixes in plenty of comedic beats that keep it entertaining. Still, if you’re not a horror fan, this one probably won’t win you over . "Years into their relationship, Tim and Millie find themselves at a crossroads when they move to the countryside, abandoning all that is familiar in their lives except each other. With tensions already flaring, a nightmarish encounter with a mysterious, unnatural force threatens to corrupt their lives, their love, and their flesh."
- She Rides Shotgun (8.0/10)
A new Taron Egerton crime/thriller that delivers a solid ride from start to finish. Everything was solid. The pacing, the tension, the performances but nothing truly elevates it to be a great film. Still, you can’t go wrong giving this one a watch. " Marked for death by unrelenting enemies, a newly released ex-con must protect his estranged 11-year-old daughter at all costs. With little resources and no one to trust, they form a bond under fire as they evade a corrupt sheriff and a brutal gang leader who'll stop at nothing to protect his criminal interests."
- Dream Scenario (7.8/10)
This was a bizarre Nicolas Cage film. It is a 2023 Comedy/Horror film. It felt so unique that I found myself really enjoying it, staying curious the entire time. The concept kept me hooke d. That said, the ending didn’t quite land for me, which is why it fell just short of an 8/10. The ending was actually really bad. " A family man finds his life turned upside down when millions of strangers suddenly start seeing him in their dreams. However, when his nighttime appearances take a nightmarish turn, he's forced to navigate the consequences of his newfound stardom."
- Spoiler Alert (8.6/10)
Sheesh! This movie was an emotional ride. It was strange at first seeing Jim Parsons outside of his iconic Sheldon Cooper role, but he absolutely nailed it. The performances across the board were incredible, pulling you deep into the story and hitting every emotional note. It tugs on a lot of emotions. Depending on who you are, there is a decent chance you could cry. " Writer Michael Ausiello embarks on a roller-coaster ride of emotions when his partner gets diagnosed with terminal cancer."
- Nuked (4.5/10)
As you can tell we have been on a real cold streak of movies. This one didn't help either. The comedy aspects were not funny, the plot had potential. I think a better cast and different age group of people would have made this film a lot better. " A night of fun at a cannabis-infused dinner party soon turns to chaos when the guests learn a nuclear missile is heading their way."
- The Map That Leads to You (4.7/10)
A new trending movie on Amazon Prime that has an obvious ending. Madelyn Cline is a bad actress, I am sorry to say it if you already didn't know. " Heather embarks on a European adventure, her journey taking an unexpected turn when she meets Jack. Their encounter opens up new possibilities which neither had anticipated."
- Eenie Meanie (3.4/10)
This is the #1 trending movie on Hulu. It is horrible, please don't watch. " A reformed teenage getaway driver is dragged back into her unsavoury past when a former employer offers her an opportunity to save the life of her chronically unreliable ex-boyfriend."
- The Rainmaker (8.2/10)
This 1997 drama/thriller/crime film starring Matt Damon reminded me how good he was in his early career. It’s a classic lawyer movie where you can more or less see the ending coming, but you still find yourself hoping for the best. Nothing overly flashy, but a real solid watch: strong acting, a good plot, and sharp dialogue that keeps it moving. It does run a bit long, but overall you can’t go wrong with it . "Struggling new attorney Rudy Baylor (Matt Damon) resorts to working for a shady lawyer (Mickey Rourke), where he meets paralegal Deck Shifflet (Danny DeVito). When the insurance company of Dot Black (Mary Kay Place) refuses her dying son coverage, Baylor and Shifflet team up to fight the corrupt corporation, taking on its callous lawyer (Jon Voight). Meanwhile, Baylor becomes involved with Kelly Riker (Claire Danes), an abused wife, whose husband complicates matters when he confronts Baylor."
- Night Always Comes (5.1/10)
I don't have much to say about this film, it was fine but not good. Vanessa Kirby starred in this and did an above-average job. You can skip this even though it is trending on Netflix. " Facing eviction in a city her family can no longer afford, a woman plunges into a desperate and increasingly dangerous all-night search to raise $25,000."
- Carol (4.5/10)
This 2015 Romance/Drama starring Cate Blanchett and Rooney Mara is set in the 1950s and follows the spark between the two lead characters. For me, the acting felt a bit forced—almost as if the lines were rehearsed rather than natural, giving it a play-like quality (though I don’t think that was intentional). The pacing was extremely slow, and I didn’t care for the way it was shot. Overall, not for me. " Aspiring photographer Therese spots the beautiful, elegant Carol perusing the doll displays in a 1950s Manhattan department store. The two women develop a fast bond that becomes a love with complicated consequences."
- In the Mood for Love (8.1/10)
In the Mood for Love (2000) is a romance/drama often cited as one of the most romantic films ever made. Entirely in Chinese, it features incredible performances—both leads deliver subtle, lived-in portrayals of longing and restraint. The music and cinematography are stunning, especially for its time, giving the film a timeless elegance. Similar to Yi Yi , it’s undeniably well-crafted and emotionally rich, though I’m not sure it reaches the same universally engaging level as something like Parasite, where the subtitles fade away and the story feels more accessible to all audiences. " In 1962, journalist Chow Mo-wan (Tony Leung Chiu Wai) and his wife move into a Hong Kong apartment, but Chow's spouse is often away on business. Before long, the lonely Chow makes the acquaintance of the alluring Su Li-zhen (Maggie Cheung Man-yuk), whose own significant other also seems preoccupied with work. As the two friends realize their respective partners are cheating on them, they begin to fall for one another; however, neither wants to stoop to the level of the unfaithful spouses. "
