I suspect I’m entering unpopular opinion territory, but I really enjoyed this Venom sequel. I mostly liked the original but I thought it was too inconsistent and had a rather unmemorable ending. This movie feels more in control of its … Continue reading
Copshop opens with a snappy, energetic feel with cool music and visuals. I thought this was going to be a fun time at the movies within the first minute. And, hey, for the most part it was. But it was … Continue reading
