Pepsi, Where’s My Jet

Posted on November 24, 2022 by Joel Hilke

Presented as a Netflix series, these four 30-40 minute episodes play more like a padded movie than anything else. It tells the story of a young man in 1995 who noticed a goofy Pepsi commercial was promising an actual Harrier … Continue reading →

Strange World

Posted on November 23, 2022 by Joel Hilke

Strange World is an alright film. It’s got a sci-fi/adventure feel to it which is fun on the surface. It looks amazing. And it has a plot that’s… alright. Plus it’s chock-a-block full of family drama llama (to its detriment). … Continue reading →

People We Hate at the Wedding, The

Posted on November 22, 2022 by Joel Hilke

The struggle was real. The struggle, in this case, was to enjoy this very rocky, wildly uneven, tonally chaotic, and weirdly overacted Amazon Prime comedy. Because sometimes it was perfectly sweet and funny and more of the time it was … Continue reading →

Slumberland

Posted on November 22, 2022 by Joel Hilke

I know Little Nemo in Slumberland is a comic strip and movie adaptations but that’s about it. Previous to this new movie, the closest I ever got to the franchise was an obscure NES game that I never even played. … Continue reading →

Wonder, The

Posted on November 21, 2022 by Joel Hilke

The Wonder is, at first, a very strange title for such a grim, austere, borderline brutal looking and feeling film. It’s a film that slowly feasts on your soul and belief in human kindness. It’s a cruel, frustrating film that … Continue reading →

Disenchanted

Posted on November 20, 2022 by Joel Hilke

What a wild disappointment. I enjoyed the original Enchanted quite a bit and this sequel, while well-cast and with some good ideas, falls flat in so many ways. The film reunites us with Giselle, former fairy tale princess (Amy Adams) … Continue reading →

She Said

Posted on November 19, 2022 by Joel Hilke

She Said tells the true story of how the New York Times investigated and ran an article about human garbage Harvey Weinstein. It follows the lead reporters as they try to interview woman after frightened woman about their experiences working … Continue reading →

Spirited

Posted on November 19, 2022 by Joel Hilke

Will Ferrell and Ryan Reynolds doing Dickens’ A Christmas Carol? You know this ain’t gonna be a straight adaptation and it most certainly isn’t. There are so many Christmas Carol adaptations that this film turns it into a cottage industry. … Continue reading →

Menu, The

Posted on November 18, 2022 by Joel Hilke

Forgive me for using this obvious but completely apt adjective here, but The Menu is a delicious movie-going experience. A wicked and cruelly delightful satirical spit in the eye of a film. The flick is about an exclusive island where … Continue reading →

Christmas Story Christmas, A

Posted on November 18, 2022 by Joel Hilke

The latest re-animated fan favorite franchise that threatens to ruin your childhood is somehow not brought to you by Disney+. No, this time it’s HBO Max potentially bringing the hurt with A Christmas Story Christmas. Will it crush your withered … Continue reading →
