Review: “The Creator”

Gareth Edwards' "The Creator," his first film since 2016's "Rouge One," continues his legacy of gorgeous visuals paired with a logic-deprived script.  The story combines elements from "Blade Runner," "District 9," "Altered Carbon," and "Westworld," but only on a superficial level.  Fascinating concepts are introduced, but never given time to grow.  Instead, we are treated [...]

Review: “Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One”

When 2018's "Mission Impossible - Fallout" was released, it felt like the perfect way to conclude the current MI franchise.  Never before had a movie so expertly connected multiple threads of the movies before it and tied up plotlines that we thought had been abandoned.  When "Dead Reckoning" was announced, and repeatedly shut down due [...]

Review: “John Wick 4”

One of the most impressive aspects of the "John Wick" series is that each entry somehow finds a way to elevate the action and spectacle of the previous film.  After three exhilarating entries, creating a fourth movie that once again raised the bar sounds like an impossible task.  Thankfully, the Baba Yaga has never shied [...]

Review: “Creed III”

After six Rocky and two Creed movies, is there any more story left to tell in "Creed III?"  Apparently, there is, but it feels so familiar you'll swear you've already seen this one before. Life has turned out pretty great for Adonis Creed (Michael B. Jordan).  After securing his world heavyweight champion title, Adonis has [...]

Review: “Bullet Train” (2022)

"Bullet Train" has all the ingredients for a fun ride.  It's helmed by stuntman-turned-director David Leitch who also brought us "John Wick,"  "Atomic Blonde," and "Deadpool 2".  It's an adaptation of the best-selling Japanese novel "Maria Beetle" written by Kôtarô Isaka. And it has an exceptional cast, led by Brad Pitt, Brian Tyree Henry, and [...]

Movie Review: “The Kill Team” (2019)

Dan Krauss' "The Kill Team" is a dramatization of the Maywand District murders which was previously covered in his 2013 documentary by the same name. Between 2009 and 2010 a small group of soldiers stationed in Afghanistan were led on a series of raids by Sergeant Deeks (Alexander Skarsgård.)   Deeks comes across as a self-righteous [...]
