So… The new animated film version of The Grinch is, at least, better than the Jim Carrey version. I mean, on the graduated scale of badness, it’s a few notches in the positive column. You just have to ask if … Continue reading
Checked out the new twisty crime drama Bad Times at the El Royale. I might be the only person that did based on bad box office this weekend. Apparently Fox continues to half-heartedly market things, what with them being bought … Continue reading
Checked out the new Kevin Hart / Tiffany Haddish comedy Night School. The flick stars Hart as a slick rick who dropped out of high school but fell into a decent career as a grill salesman. He’s in a … Continue reading
Checked out the new horror flick Hell Fest… I’m sure you’ve heard of it! This is an unabashed, unadorned, gimmick-free throwback to 80s and 90s slasher flicks. There’s no particular reason this particular creepy-masked killer is hunting teenagers. There’s no … Continue reading

Also caught The Spy Who Dumped Me, a new action comedy starring Mila Kunis and Kate McKinnon. Based on the trailers, I went into this expecting little and was mildly surprised… at least for the first hour. The film … Continue reading
