Rampage is the new Dwayne Johnson-starring giant monster movie based on a classic arcade game starring a giant gorilla, lizard, and wolf destroying cities. It should come as no surprise that the new movie is also about a giant gorilla, … Continue reading
I checked out the new suspense/horror/sci-fi almost experimental film A Quiet Place on Sunday. This is the film written, directed, and starring John Krazinski (Jim from The Office) and co-starring his real life wife Emily Blunt (lucky man). It made … Continue reading
Ready Player One is the new Steven Spielberg directed sci-fi film based on the pop-culture riddled novel from a few years ago. I read the book and went into the movie expecting certain changes of plot elements that a movie … Continue reading

The Cloverfield Paradox is the Netflix surprise Super Bowl announcement overnight release which, honestly, is a better story than the movie itself. It was previously called Cloverfield: The God Particle and was going to be a theatrical release but I … Continue reading
