Hellhole
Well, hell. This isn’t a very good movie but it has a wild and weird ending that kind of knocks it up a notch. I just wish I knew if they meant it the way I took it. The film … Continue reading

Lego Star Wars Summer Vacation
Lego Star Wars Summer Vacation barely hangs together as a short bit of fuzzy-headed comedy. I was marginally amused at times but most of the jokes were predictable and done before. The flick is marginally about the cast of the … Continue reading
