If you haven't already, watch this Netflix original. You'll enjoy it. And, even sadder about it is, this is happening in the real world. |

The film got stuck in my head.

"Maybe for you there's a tomorrow. Maybe for you there's 1,000 or 3,000 or 10. So much time you can bathe in it. So much time you can waste it. But for some of us,there's only today. And what you do today matters."
Damn time loops. Bill Murray got stuck in one in "Groundhog Day" and could escape it by surrendering to love. And Tom Cruise had a less pleasant loop in "Edge of tomorrow". He died every time during an alien invasion. Samantha (Zoey Deutch) faces the ... |

It - Lite

I desperately wanted to like this film, I really did. After all, I'm a huge Stephen King fan, and had just finished re-reading the entire 1153 pages of the novel the movie is based on. This story is only surpassed by King's other mammoth work, 'The Stand'. But reading the novel before seeing 'It' was my first mistake. I understand that it is difficult to cram in 500+ pages of book into a 2 hour movie (I say 500+ because the film only covers half of the time-span laid out in King's novel). In wa... |

"Critters 2" by Yojimbo
|
|
Brad returns to Grover's Bend two years later but when a batch of Crite eggs hatch and ransack the town, he must once again enlist the help of the extra terrestrial bounty hunters to exterminate them. It was immediately obvious that Critters was a rip off of Gremlins, but in the sequel the plagiarism is even more shameless; it's essentially exactly the same plot as the creatures cause chaos throughout the town. As is usually the case in this type of cash-in, the gore and trahiness have been ram... |

| Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales |
Rating of: 2/4

"Dead Men Tell No Tales" is the fifth installment in this exhausted franchise that should have sunk 10 years ago.
Remember how grand and epic these movies were, but with the unfinished effects, predicable scenes, and over rushed storyline, it looses the magic. You just wish that Javier Bardem character would just impale Captain Jar Jar Binks with his sword and be down with it. I was rooting for the villain through the whole thing.
Fuck Jack Sparrow! |

| Table 19 |

Table 19 seems to have been swept under the rug upon its release. That's too bad since it's a pretty good romantic-comedy-drama. The ensemble cast is a good lineup. Anna Kendrick remains one of the best actresses for the genre. What works for 'Table 19' is that it doesn't take shortcuts or wind up predictable. It's swee-natured without being too saccharine. |

I have a deep appreciation for It - the book is my second-favorite Stephen King novel (The Stand will always win, by a hair) and the 1990 adaptation featuring the unforgettable performance from Tim Curry is still one of the better King adaptations there has been. When I heard they were coming around to make a new version, I was a bit skeptical, even hesitant, but when that first trailer dropped, I was sold and Andrés Muschietti has created the definitive version of It, and It is very good.

If you liked Rounders, you will like 21. OH, wait. except you've seen Rounders, and that's basically what this is, except it's blackjack and not poker, the characters are mostly one dimensional and oh boy how is he going to get out of this pickle. So very cliche'f opening. The love interest relationship is forced. It's fairly well acted, given the script. Just, there's nothing amazing about it, nothing that makes it "jump off the page" (eh :) see what I did there?) |

This is the cinematic catastrophe known as 2017, and this is the best we got so far. |
