65 (2023)
"65" is a mediocre science fiction film about an astronaut who crash lands on a planet that turns out to be earth some 65 million years ago. This poorly executed movie was produced, directed, and written by the filmmaking duo of Scott Beck and Bryan Woods ("Haunt" 2019); [..]
John Wick: Chapter 4 (2023)
Producer-director Chad Stahelski has come out with a spectacular third sequel to "John Wick" (2014) called "John Wick: Chapter 4." He has retained the taut story lines, tense drama, and amazingly choreographed shooting scenes that characterized the first three "John Wick" movies of 2014, 2017, and 2019. Shay [..]
You People (2023)
Director Kenya Barris (tv show "black-ish" 2014-2022) and screenwriter Noah Hill collaborated on a romantic comedy film that also serves as a commentary on ethnic, religious, and race relations in upper-crust Los Angeles called "You People." The result is some good comedy that has had some negative [..]
Bitcon (2022)
Producer-director Matt Osterman ("400 Days" 2016) put together a loser of a film called "Bitcon." It is the story of a missing hard drive loaded with hundreds of thousands of dollars of cryptocurrency, with numerous people on a search for it. The lackluster screenplay by Osterman [..]
Don’t Worry Darling (2022)
Producer-director Olivia Wilde has created a psychological thriller drama film that she also stars in called "Don't Worry Darling." This story about a seemingly perfect couple living in a company town has striking similarities to "The Stepford Wives" (1975) and "Westworld" (1973). Sloppy direction by Wilde [..]
Brexit: The Uncivil War (2019)
Britain's Channel 4 produced a made-for-television movie that takes a comprehensive look at the movement inside the United Kingdom to leave the European Union called "Brexit: The Uncivil War." Although seemingly filmed like a documentary, director Toby Haynes and teleplay writer James Graham filled the film with [..]
Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets (2017)
"Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets" is an exciting science fiction film set in the 28th century, based on a French comic book series called "Valerian and Laureline." Director-screenwriter Luc Besson filmed the picture in English and features Dane DeHaan and Cara Delevingne in the lead [..]
King Richard (2021)
Will Smith won the Best Actor Oscar for his portrayal of Venus and Serena Williams' father Richard Williams in "King Richard." This one of six nominations for a biopic that was a little boring and tedious for a 145 minute film; we really do not need [..]
Sand Dollar Cove (2021)
"Sand Dollar Cove" is a made-for-tv romantic comedy movie about a real estate developer rep who comes to the town of Sand Dollar Cove to negotiate buying some property. She has problems with one of the property owners, who is an eligible bachelor that she soon becomes [..]
Apex (2021)
Bruce Willis stars as an ex-policeman serving a life sentence for a crime he did not commit in the futuristic science fiction action film "Apex." This movie is just plain awful, horribly produced, directed, and written by Edward John Drake ("Breach" 2020). The screenplay is poorly [..]
