Welcome to the last installment of Pandemic Theater. It’s not that the COVID-19 problem is over, given the millions now coming down with it in China courtesy of their dictator Xi deciding to lift the measures. Nobody really cares and there’s … Continue reading

Mom and Dad Save the World

This little-known comedy was part of Jon Lovitz’s short-lived career as a leading actor and I remember it briefly existing via a commercial or print ad. However, it probably tanked for being in the shadow of bigger, more successful Summer … Continue reading

Operation Mincemeat

Thanks to the wonderful hosts of Stuff You Missed in History Class, I already knew the underlying premise to this movie about a real deception pulled off by the UK’s Military Intelligence. Mincemeat does change a couple of little things I’ll get … Continue reading

Prey

The Predator franchise is just frustrating much like the Alien one, Terminator died after Judgment Day for me. They started off really well, had a pretty good sequel and then have been really uneven ever since. For Alien, the biggest gripe I have is … Continue reading

The King’s Man

Since Taron Egerton decided play Elton John and passed on being Gary for a third time in the pretty clever Kingsman flicks, the people running this possible rival to James Bond decided to go the lazy, en vogue direction…a prequel. As if … Continue reading

Lucky Logan

Currently, the laziest and most popular screed we’re subjected to is either “the MCU is played out” or Star Wars, take your pick if you think it will make you sound smarter than you really are. One such critic is Martin … Continue reading

The Exchange

Prez Grampa’ Brunch may have declared the Pandemic over and told us to just live with it, once again proving the Leftists’ point in how there is NO MEANINGFUL DIFFERENCE between the modern Democrats (really the NeoLiberal Party) and psycho … Continue reading

Your Highness

Here’s a dud that didn’t age well after 11 years with James Franco being revealed as a creep adding insult to the injury my eyes endured for almost two hours. I definitely need to see Danny McBride in The Righteous Gemstones … Continue reading

Villains

Villains isn’t a terribly original film about two robbers on the lam who break into the house of two psychopaths while hiding out from Johnny Law. Tarantino built a whole act around this with his poorly aged and overrated Pulp Fiction. … Continue reading

Ingrid Goes West

Ingrid is a stupendous Dark Comedy that’s more than Aubrey Plaza doing her trademark psycho character long perfected with Parks & Rec and The Little Hours. To me it’s also a dig on how lame and shallow the “Instagram Famous” are. It’s what this movie … Continue reading

Permanent

This really cute Coming-of-Age movie set in the Eighties helped solidify how much I enjoy seeing Rainn Wilson in about anything. Before you ask, I’ve barely watched the American version of The Office. I have no opinion of it, thus, I … Continue reading

Charlie Says

I decided to revive this sub-category of movie reviews/discussion for several reasons: I just don’t go to the movie theaters as often due to my need to save money, the theatrical choices remain lame and the Pandemic isn’t really over. … Continue reading

Harold and Kumar go to White Castle 2021 edition

So pissed I couldn’t find my original review of this flick from 2004 (pre-Weblog format) because I did spend the money at the terrible Cinemark outside my house. Hell, I cannot remember if I liked, hated or thought meh of this. … Continue reading

Justice League: the Snyder do-over

Allegedly, this Snyder Cut happened via HBO Max through the fans. Who these people are, I have yet to meet one. I do readily admit to enjoying Snyder’s 300 and he did the best job possible with The Watchmen, a story that … Continue reading
