Superman (2025)(Movie) Date: September 19 2025 This was a typical James Gunn movie! Fun with little to no substance. The speech by Superman to Lex at the end was really what the movie all about - is Superman human or alien? It was a fun movie! |
The Accountant(Movie) Date: May 27 2025 This was a very fun movie! With some really good twists!! Of course, seeing the trailer for #2 gave away one of the twists but it still has some good moments. Love it. Now it has me wondering ... who would win - John Wick vs. The Accountant? One on One? |
Dirty Harry Binge!(Movie) Date: May 20 2025 Watched all of them in order

Alien: RomulusDate: August 27 2024 Absolutely phenomenal!! The best Alien movies since Aliens, hands down. It had everything we have ever wanted in an Alien movie and more. Just when I thought it was over, it was on again, and so many throwbacks. Perfect merging of Alien and the lore laid out in Prometheus & Covenant 10 out of 10. |
2024 Summer Movie Binge 2Date: August 12 2024 Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare Awesome! I love WW2 movies and this one was right up my ally. It had a goofie aspect to it that made the movie even better. It is sad it did not do well. 9 out of 10 The Beekeeper This was better than I thought it would be. Typical Stathom movie, with a little more gore and violence. Had a John Wick vibe to it that I liked. 8 out of 10! Deadpool & Wolverine The story was on par with the cookie cutter brainless stuff Disney puts out, but the cameos obviously made up for it. This one I actually saw in the Theater. 8 out of 10. |
2024 Summer Movie BingeDate: June 12 2024 Godzilla x Kong Awesome! If you like the Monsterverse, this is what fans of it asked for. Those that hated it were not fans of the Monsterverse. Loved it!! 10 out of 10 Godzilla Minus One Phenomenal! Everything everyone said it would be. Loved it!! 10 out of 10! Civil War Pretty good. I find it puzzling that people thought it wasn't political or taking a particular side. Abolishing the FBI is definitely a right wing thing. This was a very subtle allegory to what the left things Trump will do. 7 out of 10. |
Rebel Moon Part 1 & Part 2Date: April 29 2024 My opinion of this series is really no different from the majority of critics - it's terrible. The story does entirely make sense - why this big deal over grain with an imperial presence that can cross the galaxy through the "space vagina" in seconds and raise the dead. I get that it has this Magnificent Seven vibe but I at least cared about those characters. And the griffin ride - WHY? Made no sense. Good idea but poorly executed. Visuals were incredible, though. |
Dune Part 1 & Part 2Date: March 15 2024 Realizing I never posted about Dune 1, I decided to post about both since I rewatched it before going to see Dune 2. I really enjoyed both although both are really cerebral, perhaps a little slow, especially Part 2. The one thing about Dune 2 that stands out to me is that it leaves you thinking. Having seen the 1980s movie, then reading the book, you get a lot of themes out of it. First, you see why the 80s movie, while good in some ways, missed the mark in others. This version hits the mark in so many ways but it's very heavy... dense with lore and theme. I can see why some people just didn't get it. |
2023 End of Year Movie BingeDate: November 29 2023 Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning Part 1 Awesome! A lot of running and chasing but still a good movie. Very much a MI movie. Tom Cruise has his finger on the pulse of what a good MI movie is. 9 out of 10 only because it has too much Tom-Cruise-running Expendables 4 Somewhat disappointed in this one, although the story was not bad (although predictable). Missing several of their past stars and did not bring in any new 80s action heroes - just a few martial artists. 6 out of 10. Blue Beatle For a person that is suffering from super hero fatigue, I enjoyed this movie. I really like Blue Beatle as a hero and this was a great story. I like the focus on family. 7 out of 10 only because it is just another super hero movie with a generally derivative and overdone plot, but the characters were awesome! Equalizer 3 My favorite of all of these. I loves the locale, the action and I have always loved DW's approach to Robert McCall. he's the man!! 10 out of 10 |
Black AdamDate: December 21 2022 I do not know what all the fuss is about but I thought this movie was OK. Not terrible like many are saying. It was kind of fun, different but fun. I enjoyed it. |
