Killers of the Flower Moon? More like Killers of the Hours
OMG could Martin Scorcese get himself an editor? And I am asking politely. Three hours and 26 minutes to tell this primary story of greed, corruption and betrayal is, IMHO, 30-45 minutes too long. True, there are numerous subplots, but really Martin? Your viewing audience is not dense. Once you have established a fact, let’s […]
Anatomy of a Fall or Was It Colonel Mustard in the Snowbank?
Is Justine Triet’s “Anatomy of a Fall” a courtroom thriller, a dramatic psychological study, or both, or simply a “true-crime whodunit” with all the twists and turns inherent in that genre? With the backdrop of Sandra Hüller’s all-consuming and brilliant portrayal of the main character Sandra, it is close to impossible to decide. She brings […]
Poor Things or how I survived a Salvador Dali LSD trip!
Never in my wildest dreams did I ever think I would leave a movie theatre thinking I had just taken an LSD trip or been a player in a Salvador Dali nightmare. Poor Things was certainly that and a lot more. NO, this is NOT a negative as I certainly give this film a more […]
Oppenheimer? HUGE YES!
Christopher Nolan’s latest opus is nothing short of brilliant! Cillian Murphy as Oppenheimer is Oscar worthy but let us not overlook the brilliance of Robert Downey Jr, as Lewis Strauss. Of all the roles in his career, this is superb. His malevolent narcissistic Machiavellian portrayal is simply brilliant. One should not overlook the wonderfully nuanced performance by […]
Hijack? Oh yes!
Edris Elba is absolutely brilliant in this new series. This is not Snakes on a Plane, rather an ultimately thrilling and intriguing suspense thriller. There are so many backstories and personal stories that you wind up rooting for everyone that is featured. HUGE 5 stars to sit back and enjoy the ride. Loved all the […]
Indiana Jones meets James Bond with a lot of sass!
And are any of you surprised that I LOVED this latest installment of the Indiana Jones enterprise? This is a wonderful romp incorporating the best of Indiana with spectacular James Bond over-the-top action scenes with a touch of Steve McQueen Bullitt car races. The opening segments are a brilliant use of CGI to make Harrison […]
FUBAR is Terminator meets James Bond!
FUBAR, starring Arnold Schwarzenegger and Monica Barbaro, is a mindless but fun takeoff on Terminator meets James Bond with a dash of True Lies. A totally mindless but totally fun romp! Who cares what the plot is? It is just fun hours of mischief peppered with a great supporting cast that delivers on all levels. […]
The Diplomat is OUR new fave rave Diplomat!
The incredibly wonderful Keri Russel is brilliant with her wonderfully nuanced performance as an unwilling British Ambassador amid an international crisis juggling her high-profile, albeit grudgingly accepted, position as the new ambassador to the UK while navigating her downward spiraling marriage to a former political star, brilliantly portrayed by Rufus Sewell. Netflix has hit yet another […]

Up Up and Away with AIR!
Ben Affleck’s latest directorial effort, AIR, leads me to believe that he is currently and will continue to follow closely in the footsteps of Hollywood legend and icon Clint Eastwood as he matures and shifts seamlessly between portraying and directing characters. His latest foray in directing this illustrious cast and portraying Nike founder CEO Phil […]

Lucky Hank? NO, Unlucky us!
This latest series starring Bob Odenkirk and Mirelle Enos is not a lucky way for us to spend our time watching a new series. So not intriguing as was his starring role in Better Call Saul. IMHO totally banal. Does anyone really care about a professor’s meltdown into an infantile persona? Now, I do like […]
Bruce Willis retires from acting
Bruce Willis has been gracing our TV screens. For most of us, we have actually grown with him, and he was our favorite action actor (for many of us, anyway). Unfortunately, just last year, in March 2022, the public came to learn the 67-year-old guru decided to retire from acting because he has aphasia. This […]
What’s with all the weirdness in the music industry: Playboi Carti’s performance raises eyebrows
Just last month, Sam smith performed that weird and creepy performance that made everyone pause for a second and second guess their choice of attending the Grammys. Many people were convinced it was more of a satanic ritual than anything else. Well, when you watch the video I think you will definitely end up forming […]
