Ghost in the Shell
Good 17 Points 2017

Scarlett Johansson in a compelling cyborg story. Not as inspiring as say, Robocop, but Scarlett sure makes for a cute robot, and they have set things up nicely for a sequel. Let’s see where this goes.

Shimmer Lake
Great 17 Points 2017

A new twist on a great crime thriller: throw in subtle comedy and tell the story backwards. It was tough at time trying to soak in the story in reverse order, but the process of remembering the ending events and revealing the motives by showing them was a unique and fun way to experience the st…

Baby Driver
Great 83 Points 2017

Choreography comes to car chases in Baby Driver. British director Edgar Wright’s benchmark blockbuster presents like Tarantino set to music. Nowhere to Run, Radar Love and Never, Never Gonna Give Ya Up lead the 60s & 70s chestnuts that impart old-school cool into this new-school movie. Star…

Good Time is a helluva good time movie, if your taste in movie entertainment includes sickly funny slices of life from the underbelly of society. Mine does, for better or worse, so this demented masterpiece struck me and most of my entire theater as OMG and increasingly LOL pretty much all the …

The Wizard of Lies
Good 17 Points 2017

Robert DeNiro is great as Bernie Madoff, the famous financial bad-man who pulled off a $64.8B Ponzi scheme from 1960 to 2008. The movie, a little slow at times, does a decent job portraying what life as a Madoff was like, and the extent to which Bernie ruined the lives of not only investors, but…
