Rumors of Maggie Moore(s) being a Fargo knock-off are not greatly exaggerated. My immediate feeling when the movie launched was just that… and it’s far from a perfect film to boot. It has issues but I enjoyed enough of it … Continue reading
I went into this movie with low expectations and a surly attitude (I had to bail on another movie because the theater’s projection was unwatchable… again). I figured it would be the latest ho-hum Pixar film randomly picked to return … Continue reading
Perhaps its due to seeing too many Stan Lee docs already (and reading his book Excelsior) but this latest Disney+ doc did very little for me. About the only thing new it brings to the table of the man’s life … Continue reading

Malum is one of those movies where a lot happens but probably none of it is real. This kind of ambiguity often doesn’t work for me and that’s the case with this sometimes creepy flick. It’s about a cop who … Continue reading
When this flick was in theaters, it was the B choice that I just never got around to. I laughed with a guy in concessions that, whatever I was seeing today, at least it wasn’t Mafia Mamma. I have no … Continue reading
