Second-tier Marvel is first-class entertainment in the form of the 2021 Venom: Let There Be Carnage, especially given Tom Hardy being directed by Andy Serkis. The legendary Serkis knows his way around tangible superego characters, having been Gollum in Lord of the Rings…. |

Atlas tried, again. If only Part II was double the fun or carried twice the load of Part I. Instead, the new casting ends net neutral while the story remains mired in the Fifties. Plus the sheer weight of putting on an economic thriller remains overwhelming. Still, all hail the attempt….

Beghe's Hank Reardon - hell of a man

Go in with expectations lowered and laugh your ass off. Self-conciously redundant and even more misanthropic, Part II feels like The Hangover’s hangover. That said, it’s funny as hell. LOL bombs rain down early and often. It’s also distinctly edgier than the original. Yes that’s possibl…

The Legend Continues and so do the laughs. Unfortunately so do the gaffes, which way outnumber the LOLs, driving the gaffe-to-laugh ratio well above 1. That’s far from great, even if some of the bits are truly great. Yes, you’ll laugh YAO early & often enough, so one can say The Legend C…

Your mission, should you choose to accept it: Pay $15 for an IMAX sequel that spurns the music and conventions that defined Mission Impossible in the first place and that fails to induce vertigo, IMAX or no. Doesn’t seem a worthwhile value in these recessionary times. MI – GP is a good movi…

Life is cheap in Jakarta. Guys get killed. Girls get, well, you know, treated disrespectfully in The Raid 2. The fun – this being a hell of a fun movie – comes from seeing how the guys get knocked off, as it’s often spectacularly inventive and/or a complete gross-out, with a body count that …

Star Trek VI concluded the original movie series in disappointing fashion. Last of Nicholas Meyer’s II, IV, VI trio, last with the founding cast, ST VI is first in being ridiculous. That’s saying something for Star Trek. Fortunately, Shatner and Crew ensure it’s not without its charms, a…

Christopher Plummer: 1st Rate Villain
|

With HB2, you have a mostly sucky story, but really good lol generating comedic antics by a solid cast. You have your new-Stooges with Bateman, Sudeikis, and Day – performing in a way that shows tribute to Danny DeVito’s Sunny in Philadelphia. Then you have Kevin Spacey and Kris Pine who do the… |

Tons of laughs form the Channing Tatum and crew. I mean, how could you not find the premise of following a stud-muffin crew on their final blowout funny. Just the story generates lols, but the cast does a great job of stretching that out for the entire film. |

Chris Pratt’s charisma is nearly as supernatural as the dinosaurs in Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, a competent if not especially terrific summer blockbuster. Pretty much every monster phobia gets exploited. However, the people are ploddingly obvious in their actions and not very engaging, sup…
