The Outwaters is a found footage film that wins my Skinamarink Only Slightly More Watchable award for February, 2023. More power to filmmakers and their microbudgets but if you give me nothing to work with, then I’m going to feel … Continue reading
I had a blast with Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania (maybe not the most popular take out there considering the reviews). The Ant-Man movies have been pretty small scale superhero comedies and never really mattered to the bigger picture. So … Continue reading
A bunch more Classics all rolled up for review. 1932 – Grand Hotel – old time Hollywood cast in an interesting intertwining set of stories. I thought it was pretty good… and also realized it’s the first Greta Garbo movie … Continue reading

Somebody I Used to Know is a romantic comedy that’s better on the romance than it is on the comedy… and it’s only so-so on the romance. I think the problem is the movie has the wrong main character. The … Continue reading
