In addition to new releases and bad movies, I also took on the task of reviewing films that turned 25 this year. This was a much more enjoyable endeavor, as I got to rewatch some of my favorite 90s films including “Primal Fear” and “Empire Records.” Rather than making an end of year list that captures my own personal favorites, I thought it might be best to highlight some of the more surprisingly enjoyable ones I rewatched during this trip down memory lane. There were a LOT to choose from, and this list was harder to compile than the Rated…

We take a look at the 30 films rated 10% or less we reviewed in 2021, and came up with the 5 lowest scored.

It’s a difficult balance in journalism, wanting to discuss current and relevant topics while also trying to get headline worthy responses from their interviewees. This is even more tricky when you’re dealing with high profile actors and directors. These people consistently have to sit through hours upon hours of press junkets where pundits ask the same question over and over again. Naturally, they’re bound to lash out and occasionally provide some headline worthy soundbites. That’s all well and fine, and most reputable outlets manage this balance well.

I’m sure you’ve seen the commericals: an gigantic LG TV that somehow rolls away into itself. It’s the kind of sci-fi futuristic make believe technology we really didn’t think could ever exist.

We’re truly baffled by this tv, and it’s price.]…

“Sing 2” feels more like a collection of scenes rather an a complete feature film.

It’s not the best, and doesn’t get everything right, but “Bruised” is one of the better MMA movies out there.

“Masters of the Universe” part 2 feels like a manufactured controversy, purposefully splitting a rather complete series into two parts for no other reason than to get people to talk about the show.

“Hawkeye” is exactly what the MCU needs right now, and exactly what WE need to find some sliver of joy during the holiday seasons.

“Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City” may have some script and pacing issues, but makes up for it with solid directorial execution and a clear desire to try and maintain the integrity of the game franchise.

“King Richard” is a wonderful movie going experience, one that you shouldn’t miss out on and I highly recommend.
