Hurry Up Tomorrow

Posted on May 16, 2025 by Joel Hilke

This is going to be one confused ass confusing review… but looking at the ratings chart of this film on Letterboxd, that sounds about right. And it’s not just because I don’t know what to make of this movie, it’s … Continue reading →

Final Destination: Bloodlines

Posted on May 15, 2025 by Joel Hilke

Imagine my surprise sitting in the theater realizing this might just be my favorite film in this kinda same-y franchise. I guess taking fourteen years off and coming back with bigger and better splatter gives you ideas of how to … Continue reading →

Shadow Force

Posted on May 13, 2025 by Joel Hilke

Generic Title is a pretty mediocre movie that often tried to convince me it was good. Mainly through fairly obvious punched up dialog designed to make certain characters more fun. But the core of the film… not so good. It … Continue reading →

Silent Zone

Posted on May 12, 2025 by Joel Hilke

Of all the reasons to rent what looks like Generic Zombie Movie #583, it being almost two hours long is one of the stranger ones. But, yeah, here’s another zombie movie that doesn’t sound like it’s moving the needle, but … Continue reading →

Summer of 69

Posted on May 11, 2025 by Joel Hilke

Summer of 69 pretends to be a super raunchy sex comedy… but it evolves into a gentler, if a little daft, heart-felt buddy comedy. It’s almost like the title is designed to be misleading (also of note: it doesn’t take … Continue reading →

Juliet & Romeo

Posted on May 10, 2025 by Joel Hilke

The audacity. The wishful thinking. The misguided lunacy. The plug-my-ears these songs are generic. There’s so many accusations to chuck at this flick that it’s almost tough to point out the volume of other wild-eyed adaptations of any Shakespeare play … Continue reading →

Winter Spring Summer or Fall

Posted on May 10, 2025 by Joel Hilke

Winter Spring Summer or Fall is a pleasantly low drama romance film… perhaps a little too low stakes but also that works for me. Probably could have used more such-and-such… just not sure what that such and such would be … Continue reading →

Nonnas

Posted on May 9, 2025 by Joel Hilke

Nonnas is a movie that will work better for you if you have big family meals and/or an Italian upbringing. I think to the rest of us – or maybe just me – it loses something in the translation. Which … Continue reading →

Britain and the Blitz

Posted on May 9, 2025 by Joel Hilke

Britain and the Blitz is a short Netflix documentary that feels like it needed to be a long Netflix documentary. It contains interesting footage and small stories but its not deep enough to breath or inform. It’s a little over … Continue reading →

Clown in a Cornfield

Posted on May 8, 2025 by Joel Hilke

Clown in a Cornfield begs the question: where are the scarecrows? Are they going to bring this up in the next meeting of Horror Icons Anonymous? I think the clowns co-opting the cornfields is reason for a dialog – even … Continue reading →
