The Holdovers Review

The Holdovers is exactly the kind of movie I typically greatly enjoy. A low-stakes, grounded, comedy-drama about interpersonal relationships. And it’s distributed by Focus Features! Even better! I should have already had my mind harkening back to movies such as Lost In Translation or Dan In Real Life. But, for whatever reason, I kind of let The Holdovers pass me by while it was in … Continue reading The Holdovers Review

The Iron Claw review

It’s always intriguing when Hollywood gets the occasional bug up their butt to make a movie based on something I’ve long been passionate about.

The Boy And The Heron Review

Someday, I hope to meet a very specific 4% of professional movie critics. You see, Hayao Miyazaki’s Spirited Away is my go-to movie for why Rotten Tomatoes sometimes baffles my mind. It stands, as of this writing, at a 96% on the critical aggregate website. And I swear that is down from a 97% the last time I looked it up! Anyway, if you understand … Continue reading The Boy And The Heron Review

It’s one of the … Continue reading The Night Of The Missing Review

Top Ten 21st Century Science Fiction Movies

When I decided to do this after hearing my buddies at The Countdown Podcast do the same category, this was one of those lists that I went into thinking “Well, this will be really hard to do”, and it was! But it shortly became hard for a much different reason than I initially expected. See, I typically don’t think of myself as a sci-fi fan. … Continue reading Top Ten 21st Century Science Fiction Movies
