So Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales is about as good as most the rest of the series. If that makes you say, “Cool! I should go see it” then ok. Someone has to like these movies. … Continue reading

Also checked out the kid’s flick Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Long Haul. This is the fourth film in the series and it is kind of a reboot in that they recast everyone… which makes sense for the kid … Continue reading
