A whip-smart script about whip-smart people doing world historic things in super-cool cars going 200 MPH makes Ford v Ferrari perhaps the best sports biopic ever. Its perfect cast is led by a perfect Matt Damon. Granted, the moviemakers had loads to work with given how iconic was the Ford GT…

Painfully unfunny. The movie starts off cute, then immediately goes into the can, with perhaps one humorous scene stuck somewhere in the middle. The premise of a self-absorbed yuppie couple getting emotionally tortured by their self-absorbed divorced families means that the humor is all based o… |

Edge of your seat documentary about Alex Honnold’s journey to finally free soloing El Cap in 2017. Seriously stressful watching this – but so rewarding! |

The true story of Oscar Grant is a bitter pill to swallow, in part due to the film’s focus on his struggle to pull away from his past and do better for himself, his daughter, and his family. History tends to keep a strong bond for better or worse and when it is compounded by prejudice, it can be… |

The first great movie of 2013 is Gangster Squad. Oh great, what we’ve got here is a movie featuring a bunch of Hollywood Liberals gunning down loads of people with weapons they’d like to ban in real life, all in the name of entertainment. Only in America. OTOH, what’s great is a richly p…

Is there a more enjoyable Elmore Leonard movie or charismatic John Travolta movie than Get Shorty? So what if it’s a trifle, a light crime-comedy. It’s a movie about the love of movies, which it celebrates with sleek Hollywood panache, rich Elmore Leonard flair and charming details. In short, *…

Big thing Godzilla, been around a long time, sixty years on screen, millions more in Godzilla story years. Archetype and moviestar, it’s a 350’ T-Rex that thrives on nuclear energy, making it a metaphor for nukes in general and nuclear bombs in particular. Godzilla 2014 proffers little new, ye…

Hail The Conquering Hero is a welcome stop on the Tour de Sturges, even if not one of the best. The Greatest Generation dealt with challenge differently than we 2nd Millenniums do, to put it mildly. Preston Sturges made Hail The Conquering Hero during World War II, right after the Marines…

Seriously funny and savagely smart, Hail, Caesar! represents another triumph for the Coen Brothers and their company of retro thespians. A satire of golden age Hollywood, it uses the Studio System as a canvas to mock targets across the political spectrum. Amazingly the Lefties take the worst o…
