At the very last minute, she boards the Fool’s Errand, a bomber plane, with a mysterious package and note saying she will accompany the crew. Given the lack of space …

Front to back
You’ll never guess who made this movie. To start with, I’d like to apologize. I know I promised to stop bringing up the pandemic in my reviews, but here I have to. For better or worse, Tenet is intertwined with COVID-19, probably more than any other movie that’s come out lately.
How does it feel…to finally watch watch this movie?
If I had a voice like New Order, I’d turn that into an actual song. (Unmarked Spoilers) While the previous films made it seem as though Diana Prince/Wonder Woman (Gal Gadot) retired from superheroics following the death of her lover, Steve Trevor (Chris Pine), Wonder Woman 1984 reveals quite the opposite. It turns out she continued her …

Ready, steady, go
The Hunt is On. (Unmarked Spoilers) In a post-apocalyptic world, a virtual reality videogame that has replaced the internet itself called the OASIS is people’s only escape. Its creator James Halliday (Mark Rylance), has died and left his vast fortune and control of the OASIS itself to anyone who could find the Easter Egg he …
Edward Gunhands
Good thing he no longer has to hold a wand. Miles (Daniel Radcliffe) is this computer geek who decides it’s a good idea to troll an online death-match called Skizm. The site’s creator, Riktor (Ned Dennehy), doesn’t take too kindly to that and decides to make Miles the next contestant. Nailing two guns to his hands, …
Happy belated birthday Kick-A*s!
If I was a better critic, I would have had this out yesterday. (Unmarked Spoilers) For those of you who don’t know, Kick-A*s is to superhero movies what Scream is to horror movies. The plot concerns this loser high school student named Dave Lizewski (Aaron Johnson), who decides to be a real-life superhero named Kick-A*s. He also finally earns …
A good reboot that nobody wanted.
A great thing about the internet is movies being released online before they’re out on DVD. Happy International Women’s Day! To celebrate, I’ve decided to look at a film that was made by and stars a cast of mostly women. Charlie’s Angels (2019), written, directed, and starring Elizabeth Banks.
It’s Harley Quinn’s world, they’re just living in it
Why didn’t I just use the money I spent on The Gentlemen for this? This movie’s got its title wrong. Instead of Birds of Prey (and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn), it should be Harley Quinn (guest-starring the Birds of Prey). (I dare you to say that sentence five times fast.) I suspected as much …

Lock, Stock, Snatch, RocknRolla & Two Smoking Barrels
Learn the most creative ways to call someone a c**t. Recently I found myself with a dilemma because I wanted to see a movie and the one I was going to see, The Turning, got absolutely destroyed by critics and audiences alike. Oh well, now I have more time to read the book as I wait for …

Are you in the mood to watch a movie?
Because I’ve got a movie for you to watch Friday night. Safecracker Red (Luke Bracey) has just gotten out jail and happily reunites with his family. His wife, Chloe (Nina Dobrev), is an aspiring artist with a whole show on prison walls and is forced to work with this scumbag name Derek Blarney (David Hewlett). …
