Monsters of California is a sci-fi movie I should have liked… by law. I like the gonzo philosophies and borderline magical realism it trades in… in theory. But it’s so cheap and amateurish, it gets in its own way at … Continue reading
I kind of liked the original Vacation Friends mainly due to John Cena’s exuberant weirdo of a character. It wasn’t a movie I expected a sequel to and I was pretty sure it wasn’t needed when I heard about it. … Continue reading
