Posted on January 31, 2019 by Joel Hilke

Fyre

Posted on January 23, 2019 by Joel Hilke

Checked out the Netflix documentary about the failed Fyre festival that fizzled out spectacularly in 2017 (I think). There’s a matching, competitive Hulu documentary as well… but I don’t have Hulu so Netflix is it. I don’t travel in circles … Continue reading →

Checked out Glass, the new M. Night Shyamalan flick that’s a sequel to Unbreakable (the surprise superhero flick from around twenty years ago) and Split (the surprise undercover sequel to Unbreakable via an after-credits scene with Bruce Willis). I liked … Continue reading →

Goosebumps 2

Posted on January 18, 2019 by Joel Hilke

Rented the flick Goosebumps 2 after missing it at the theaters over Halloween. This is the Non-Jack-Black sequel to the Jack Black led Goosebumps from a few years ago. It wasn’t a bad (nor an overly good) little family comedy … Continue reading →

And, finally, watched the documentary RBG – about Ruth Bader Ginsberg – which was made by CNN Films and was able to catch it on CNN itself (also available on iTunes). I checked this out after watching – and being … Continue reading →

Upside, The

Posted on January 11, 2019 by Joel Hilke

Checked out the new Kevin Hart / Bryan Cranston drama/comedy The Upside over the weekend. This is a movie that’s getting heavily Twitter-bombed because Kevin Hart is in it and he hasn’t – or hasn’t enough – apologized for old … Continue reading →

Replicas

Posted on January 10, 2019 by Joel Hilke

And… wooo baby… I also went to see the surprise Keanu Reeves sci-fi flick Replicas. I say surprise because I didn’t see a trailer for the flick and I kept thinking, “that guy sounds like Keanu Reeves.” “Wait… that IS … Continue reading →
