The story itself is a little bit more predictable than I would have liked. It’s also funny how Po masters things in a week that take...

I love it when sequels are done right. Now that the universe and characters have been established, it is time to dive deeper into the...

Jack Black is always a treasure. He brings personality and relatability to any character he plays. The film had a great message that...

What if the city was the Hunger Games? That is essentially what happens in this movie. Katniss takes everything personally and decides to...

I never really liked the last book in general. This movie focuses on the propaganda aspect of the rebellion. Not much happens story-wise...

Catching Fire is easily the strongest entry of the trilogy. The game itself has a unique threat element to it. The characters are all...

Clearly inspired by actual world governments mixed with the movie Battle Royale, this YA movie stood out in a busy time. Kinda insane...

This movie was way better than I expected. Normally the human story is just filler in between Godzilla attacks. This time around it is a...

This movie definitely put the silent in Silent Night. There were maybe 3 pages of actual dialogue and the rest of the script was scenery...

I’m so glad I saw this when there was only a single family in the theatre, otherwise, this would have been extra weird. The movie is...

Such a hollow shell of what it was supposed to be. The action is great as always but there are two things I didn’t like. The CGI felt...

This was definitely an improvement over the first one. It felt more like a personal story. Even the villain had a personal connection so...

This felt like a mix of several different action movies, all in one flick. The precision of John Wick, the smarts of Sherlock Holmes, a...
