I had initially viewed “Uncut Gems” in theaters in the first week of January of 2020 and had chosen to forgo writing a review. I had just returned from a 10-day road trip and was responsible for seeing “1917”, “Richard Jewell”, “Little Women”, and “Bombshell” in the same week to catch up on what IContinue reading “Uncut Gems (2019) – Movie Review”

1917 (2019) – Movie Review
Films about war occupy a very special niche in our culture. For generations, soldiers subjected to military service have seen the worst of humanity while their own lives were sacrificed at the behest of governments dictating world conflicts with virtually no regard for the people sent to fight for them. It is through the mediumContinue reading “1917 (2019) – Movie Review”
Star Wars: Episode IX – The Rise of Skywalker (2019) – Movie Review
**********SPOILER WARNING! DO NOT READ IF YOU DO NOT WANT SPECIFC DETAILS OF THIS MOVIE REVEALED TO YOU************** *Dramatically inhales* Yikes. What a mess. “The Rise of Skywalker” has finally arrived and mercifully brought an end to this aimless trilogy that Disney has created. I really must apologize upfront to anyone who has enjoyed thisContinue reading “Star Wars: Episode IX – The Rise of Skywalker (2019) – Movie Review”
Marriage Story (2019) – Movie Review
Seeing as I am a 24-year-old that is a solid 6 out of 10 with the maturity of a 4th grader and the financial wherewithal you would assume a movie blogger would have, it should come as no surprise that I have never been married (Hit me up, ladies!). I have been blessed to witnessContinue reading “Marriage Story (2019) – Movie Review”
Knives Out (2019) – Movie Review
“Knives Out” is the latest film from director Rian Johnson, the suspect director of the notoriously divisive “Star Wars: The Last Jedi”. Considering he is a man of outstanding character, it is strickingly odd that his presence is considered as controversial as it is, but thus is the nature of ‘Star Wars’ fandom. Whether youContinue reading “Knives Out (2019) – Movie Review”
Ford v Ferrari (2019) – Movie Review
They had it! It was right there! And some poorly thought-out last-minute decision that goes completely against everything that was set up before it swoops in and snatches defeat straight out of the jaws of victory! I was not prepared to say this here, but these are trying times and not everything goes as expected.Continue reading “Ford v Ferrari (2019) – Movie Review”
The Irishman (2019) – Movie Review
Unfortunately, I do not live in a city important enough to have “The Irishman” playing in an actual theater, so much to the dismay of director Martin Scorsese, I was forced to stream the film on Netflix… at home (Insert ominous music and thunderclaps here)! Inarguably, my actions are an affront to the almighty, butContinue reading “The Irishman (2019) – Movie Review”
Harriet (2019) – Movie Review
From the beginning of my time reviewing films, I have made my opinions on the biopic genre very well known. While the likes of “Bohemian Rhapsody” and “Rocketman”, amongst others, garnering praise from many critics, they struck me as cliché and unfocused. I would go as far as to describe those films as well acted,Continue reading “Harriet (2019) – Movie Review”
Parasite (2019) -Movie Review
It is a rare occurrence that an Eastern film would get any mainstream attention upon its initial release in the West. Most often it is not an issue of quality, but culturally, there can often be a bigger disconnect between audiences with content than opposed to that of other Western films. So, when a SouthContinue reading “Parasite (2019) -Movie Review”
Jojo Rabbit (2019) – Movie Review
“Jojo Rabbit” is the newest production from “Thor: Ragnarok” director, Taika Waititi. It is a movie which he has touted as a work of modern satire with a story that follows a young German boy during the waning days of WWII named, Jojo, who is an absolute Nazi fanatic. Jojo’s life seemingly revolves around theContinue reading “Jojo Rabbit (2019) – Movie Review”
