Longlegs

Posted on July 12, 2024 by Joel Hilke

Longlegs is often a head-scratcher and surely it will reveal all its spooky cards on second viewing… once you know the madness to come and can spot the clues. Or maybe not. I am, however, scratching my head still. The … Continue reading →

How to Rob a Bank

Posted on July 12, 2024 by Joel Hilke

How to Rob a Bank is basically just another Netflix true crime documentary. Nothing special in its production. It’s a little interesting in terms of its subject matter… a crafty man and his accomplices take to robbing banks in the … Continue reading →

Fly Me to the Moon

Posted on July 12, 2024 by Joel Hilke

I struggle with my personal outrage when thinking about Fly Me to the Moon. I’ve got it enough under control that it only effects my final rating by just a little bit. There’s enough actually wrong with this flick to … Continue reading →

Horizon: An American Saga – Chapter 1

Posted on July 10, 2024 by Joel Hilke

Well, apparently I’m a chump. Finally decided to check out Horizon Chapter 1 in theaters since it might be hitting streaming soon and I bet it’ll be a $20 rental. So I used my AMC Premier thingy to plant myself … Continue reading →

Kill

Posted on July 8, 2024 by Joel Hilke

Kill is an Indian action film with an economy of storytelling, screen-time, and even action. Its a quick hour and forty minutes and gets to the point very quickly with some gnarly, brutal action scenes. And even some surprising story … Continue reading →

Despicable Me 4

Posted on July 8, 2024 by Joel Hilke

Familiarity Breed Contempt: The Movie. While there’s probably nothing radically different or even worse in this flick than all the other Despicable Me and Minions movies, the thoroughly average nature of this franchise has become less and less amusing by … Continue reading →

Maxxxine

Posted on July 6, 2024 by Joel Hilke

MaXXXine felt more like a direct sequel to Pearl than X… which is a plus for me since I loved Pearl but am very, very lukewarm on X. But it’s in active communication with both films and ideally you should … Continue reading →

Drawing Closer

Posted on July 5, 2024 by Joel Hilke

If you have a stony, cynical heart, you might hate this schmaltzy film. If you love a doomed romance involving sick and dying teens, you’ll love it. If you are like me, a little more cynical, a little more reserved, … Continue reading →

Space Cadet

Posted on July 4, 2024 by Joel Hilke

Space Cadet is a dumb movie and would have served itself better by totally committing to its “Police Academy only NASA” vibe. Instead, it’s a dumb movie that knows its dumb but should have either been 10% smarter or 10% … Continue reading →

Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F

Posted on July 4, 2024 by Joel Hilke

Take my rating of the fourth Beverly Hills Cop based on its backstory. I was a little too young for the original Beverly Hills Cop but all the older kids talked about it endlessly. I never saw it nor its … Continue reading →
