I just took the time to watch the 2016 horror film Before I Wake. I love a good horror film, but I never thought I would call one ‘sweet’. Before I Wake entraps both elements of heart-warming and stuff that nightmares are made of. Unfortunately, I may need to reveal the ending to explain why this is a sweet horror film, but there are plenty of twists and jaw-dropping moments
An overload of references from almost every 80s and 90s pop culture game, movie and comic consumes this childish movie made for adults. But what really sets the tone for this film (spoiler coming), is the hidden agenda presented by Spielberg and co. Get off your ass, get your head out of the screens and live in reality. I question whether a pretty awesome concept should have been mixed with a
Wakanda Forever. The cry will resonate in movie history for years to come. Black Panther is not only a film. It’s not only an action film. It’s not only a superhero film. It’s a movement. It’s a force. It’s a triumph. We are told the history of Wakanda early in the film, and how the vibranium that oozes in their soil came to be. Vibranium is the strongest metal in the
I really didn’t know what I was in for going into The Greatest Showman. The modern music infused into a New York City, where the country was going through the financial crisis in the late 1830s, made me almost cringe at how that would work. I heard the songs first. All of them. I loved them all. I just wasn’t sure how they would sit in a film that’s meant
So, there’s a remake and a reboot. A remake is taking a classic, copy-pasting the story line, but remixing a few bits here and there. Ultimately, the film is exactly the same. I am happy to announce that what we have here is a reboot; a stand alone film which has a similar concept and shares the exact same title as a timeless classic. The reason it makes me so
I’ve hated every new DC film made so far. Well, Suicide Squad was okay, but I have yet to see a new age Batman and Superman related film that I can say was awesome and not just DVD/Bluray worthy. Justice League was pretty close to making me say it was awesome. I didn’t hate it. I didn’t love it, but I didn’t hate it, and that is the most important part considering
There is so much to be pleased with and there is just as much to be disappointed with when it comes to Disney Pixar’s, Cars 3. Rarely do we see this type of hero’s journey. Would you call it a win, or a straight up loss? Did the number 95 win the race or was he forced to retire in the pits? We start off with Lightening McQueen (voiced once
So, here we go again. Another Spider-Man movie. A third version. A different actor. However, this is not like what we’ve seen before. Oh no, not even the slightest. Spider-Man: Homecoming puts us right where we left off with Tom Holland’s Spidey – after Civil War and completely skips the spider bite story. Going back eight years, after the Avengers’ battle of New York, we start with former Batman turn
Hype has it that this is the best DC film, thus far. It has even been compared to Captain America: The First Avenger. Well, I’m here to tell you that both are sort of, kind of true. Wonder Woman is a spectacle with raw emotion by our superhero, and justified action. DC’s most dominate female hero, Wonder Woman has finally been brought to life, thanks to the extraordinary direction of
Finally the next installment of this great series of intertwining Marvel movies is here, and we fans are beyond ecstatic. However, what’s there to say about the second volume of Guardians of The Galaxy? Well, I’m a mixed bag of emotions with this one. I am almost numb. I really want to love it and at the same time, I really want to dislike it. I can’t come down to
