Slash/Back (2022)
Interesting little creature feature!
Congratulations to the people of Pangnirtung, Nunavut. It is nice to see something come out from this area and the residents way of life. This was an interesting little creature feature movie. In a way, it reminded me of THE THING. Too bad, there wasn't a bit more of a budget which would have given it a bit more potential, but I enjoyed it. Some flaws to the storyline but kept me entertained. Kudos to all involved in this Canadian production.
You Are Not My Mother (2021)
Excellent Irish Thriller
This was one of the best I have seen in some time. Don't need gore to make it a good movie. The music, acting, and storyline worked well for me. This little gem is a must watch. Highly recommended. I don't understand why people are giving it bad reviews. Oh well, their loss.
Firestarter (2022)
Burned out way too quick!
I walked into the theatre thinking to not even consider any of the original Firestarter. Was ok up to about 2/3 of the way in. Then it was like there was a rush to finish it and not even think it through properly. When the credits rolled, I thought "That's it?". Was too short, ending was too rushed, effects were not good at all. For me, there was a lot lacking and left me with a feeling of "what a waste!". It did not do anything for me at all. Sad! Going back to watch the original again now to get that bitter taste out of my mouth!
Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness (2022)
Meh! Meh again!
I like the first one but this one was too silly and too confusing. I guess you have to watch Wandavision to catch up. I found it too confusing and made no sense in some places. Effects were ok but it did not make up for a full good movie. Dr Strange 3 may be coming out. Would not be for me.
Everything Everywhere All at Once (2022)
One Word: FANTASTIC
This has been one of the best movies so far, in my opinion, I have seen recently. Too bad it has not been marketed much, but it is definetely worth the time and money. The whole cast is superb and terrific and the story is original and blew me away. Please see it. You won't be sorry. Michelle Yeoh is fantasic in this film.
Dream Horse (2020)
Awesome! Fantastic! & Feel Good!
This movie was fantastic. Have seen and heard this similar story before but this one kept me thoroughly entertained throughout. I rarely watch a movie more than once but will watch my favorites numerous times. This one will be on that list too. Don't miss this one! Too bad this one wasn't promoted more...
Countdown (2019)
Gem of a Movie
I really had fun watching this film. It was entertaining to say the least. Few flaws but kept me entertained for the full 90 minutes. Very good acting and script was good. Don't believe all the nay-sayers. This one had quite a few jump scares and was not boring at all. Give this one a watch!
Scream (2022)
Whatta movie!
I don't care what the haters think! Awesome, awesome movie. 'Nuff said. Not perfect but real close! I was waiting for this movie for some time and I felt it was well worth it!
Meditation Park (2017)
One of the best.
This was one of the best movies I have seen in quite some time. Old world values plus new generations and conflicts between the two. Loved the relationships between the 4 women as well as the neighbour. This one was a fresh breath of air. Being 94 minutes, it is well worth the watch.
Zombieland: Double Tap (2019)
Double Bad
Sorry. Liked the 1st. This one did not have to be made. Not funny. Like some reviewers said, boring, boring. Not at all like the first one.
The Tournament (2009)
Action to the Max.
I saw the trailer to this and it looked like your standard action adventure. So I took a look and had to get the DVD for my collection. Excllent from the word GO. It satisfied my "hold on to your seats" action. It checked and filled my every category. Action, booby traps, stunts, gore a-plenty. What a wild ride! Too bad, this film did not get the full attention it deserves. Give it a watch if you like your over the top action. You will be really, REALLY impressed. Good cast and the storyline is great as well. Liked it a lot and would watch this one a few times. Kudos to all for this.
Jungle Cruise (2021)
This the best summer fun movie!!
I was a bit hesitant to see this one but thought I would give it a try. Boy, was I wrong. In my opinion, this movie is absolutely fantastic. The characters are all great, the story line, the action. All top notch. A bit of story flaw but it is quickly overlooked. I can't stop raving about it so go see it. You'll smile. And being just over two hours, it was well worth it. Seemed to go too quickly but well worth the time and money. This would make a great drive-in feature as well.
Gunpowder Milkshake (2021)
Fun Little movie. Some will like. Some won't
I thought this was an interesting little movie. Few flaws and few timing/story issues but, for me, it was a fun watch. Well worth the 2 hours. I enjoyed it.
Greenland (2020)
Enjoyable movie.
This movie was intense and a good thrill ride. Storyline is all the same for these types of movies but this one, for me, was enjoyable. There are a few times where the characters make some very poor decisions and you think, "why did they do that or why did they say that? "...Despite that, I enjoyed it immensely. Good job by the actors.
Hunter Hunter (2020)
Thoroughly enjoyed this movie!!
This was a great Canadian film. Great twist ending. One of the better ones I have seen in some time. The music was excellent to bring the tension to its peak. Good job on this.
Come Play (2020)
You must Watch!!
I was not expecting a movie like this to keep my interest, but, was I wrong. This movie has it all. Terrifying, pace, and jump factors. This checked all my boxes. Pace was a bit slow in the beginning but final act made up for it. You must watch this! It is great and I mean, great. You will not be disappointed.
Killer Therapy (2019)
Very interesting and very edge of your seat.
This was a movie of epic proportions. It was quite the journey into the mind of a distrubed individual and the actions taken afterwards. I still do not understand why people have to walk so zombie-like when they are in a dangerous situation. I felt sympathy for the killer and it was somewhat distrubing. The kid who polayed Brian in the beginning. WOW-so crrepy. Great acting job!!
The Babysitter (2017)
Totally good fun!
This is like a mash-up of Home Alone and Adventures in Babysitting with a little bit of blood mixed in. Goofy at times but great fun. Liked this one! Well worth the time!
Antebellum (2020)
I was confused...then it hit me!!
I was confused on where this movie was going......then the modern tech came into play.(What!?).and I was further baffled but then I begun to understand. Some questions still need answering...But, in this day and age, open your mind and watch! Drink it in. I was quite surprised. It was a very interesting piece of filmwork.
Black Box (2020)
Entertaining...but not by much
The acting by the lead was somewhat boxey and bland whereas the daughter (Amanda Christine) was excellent. It was predictable yet you needed to keep watching to see what would happen next. It was entertaing to watch some of the characters but script/storyline needed a bit more of a punch.
The Call (2020)
Had potential
I watched this hoping it would be a good horror film. Wrong! It really fell flat early in the film. The acting by the teens was so plastic and was right out of the 80's. It was disappointing! Too bad because it seemed to have potential.
The Lie (2018)
Tense, eerie, and well acted. Bravo!
Very good movie and a great twist ending. Love it! I really like the imagination and delivery of all Blumhouse Productions. Great acting and very good delivery of the script along with the Canadian setting. Eerie, cold, and the tension holds the viewer. Another outstanding production.
The Hunt (2020)
Best spent hour and a half.
Don't even listen to the critics on this one. This was a fantastic movie along with Gilpin's facial expressions and speeches. Great acting by all and action from Point A all the way to the ending. This was excellent and well worth the time. Blumhouse does it again!! Great job. Would see this one again.
Busanhaeng (2016)
This movie was one of the best.
For a foreign film, after the intro of the characters, the action begins and not too long into the movie. It was well worth the time to watch it. Excellent story (even though you know how it were to end), good acting, and the story flow was perfect. A great film indeed!!!
The Dark (2018)
Excellent movie: Worth the time.
This was one of the best dark movies I have seen in some time. There were a lot of twists and turns in this and the acting was not weird or phony. The acting was very, very good and the storyline (to me) was great and the relationship between the two main characters was believable. This was extremely well done and should be given a second look by all. This is one spectacular gem of a film.
