The Fly: Movie Review
I never was a horror movie genre fan nor a fan of Cronenberg. In fact, I normally eschew horror and especially Cronenberg since it’s simply not my taste. I do have a fair amount of respect for his work, despite it being, bluntly stated, commonly “gross.” So when I spotted The Fly on HBO Now…

The Lego Movie: Review
People who have known me understand that I have been a Lego fan my entire life. I’ve collected Lego since the age of 2 and would not be the same person without them. They have caused me grief (both in stepping on them and dealing with the cost/burden of having so much) but they consistently…

Interstellar: Review
I asked around a bit before deciding to give this movie a shot. Originally, I hesitated after reading some poor reviews on IMDB but a few coworkers suggested for me to check this out. Needing a quick distraction, I decided to give Christopher Nolan’s Interstellar a spin. Oh boy.

The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies – Review
Being a completionist (and a masochist simultaneously), I decided to finish up Peter Jackson’s The Hobbit series with the final film as it came out on iTunes today. I wrote a pretty scathing review for the first one and didn’t bother writing up a review for the second one, despite having seen it. So how…

Megan is Missing Review
Some sadistic jerk in from one of the Twitch streams I subscribe to made a suggestion to check out Megan Is Missing because the streamer enjoys “fuck up things.” Since I haven’t seen a movie in a while (at least a non-repeat), I decided to hang out and give this thing a try. If you…

Captain America: The Winter Soldier Review
As usual, I know I’m horribly late to the game in writing up a review because I finally have been able to see this movie. Honestly, I had been waiting for sometime to catch Captain America: The Winter Soldier on iTunes and just bought it on HD. Back when the latest X-Men was released, I…

X-Men: Days of Future Past Review
I managed to hit the gym and decided afterward that my reward would be to check out X-Men: Days of Future Past. As a long time X-Men fan (especially for Storm, whom I profess infinite geek love for), I was eager to check this movie out after seeing the gorgeous previews and hearing the clamors…

Movie Review: Wolverine 2013
Since I don’t have anyone to hang out with for seeing movies, I tend to be a little late to the game when it comes to the blockbusters and such. As a result, I end up waiting until they come out on iTunes so I can pick them up. Unfortunately, that tends to bulk up…

I ended up stumbling across Master of the Flying Guillotine, which I never up until now had seen…
