'Captain Marvel' Movie Review: Thanos Is Dust

Star InactiveStar InactiveStar InactiveStar InactiveStar Inactive

Captain Marvel movie review

CAPTAIN MARVEL isn't going down as one of the best Marvel movies, but it's definitely entertaining and feels more like a STAR TREK movie than a  Marvel outing. That's not a bad thing. It has lots of merits, and CAPTAIN MARVEL is a great movie for young girls or anyone whose told they can't achieve their dreams. By the end, there's no doubt Captain Marvel will pound Thanos to dust in ENDGAME.

'Black Panther' Movie Review: The Most Radical Superhero Movie Ever

Star InactiveStar InactiveStar InactiveStar InactiveStar Inactive

 Black Panther Chadwick Boseman Michael B Jordan

BLACK PANTHER isn’t just a blockbuster superhero movie. For a lot of people, specifically people of color and women, it’s the chance to see yourself reflected on the screen and feeling empowered. The Marvel movie poses a lot of questions about how we are as a people, our history of oppression and the responsibility that comes with having power.  Big action pieces are often mindless popcorn flicks, but that's not the case with BLACK PANTHER.

Star Wars The Last Jedi Captain Phasma

STAR WARS: THE LAST EPISODE has so many surprises and twists the two and half-hours go flyng by quickly.

Justice League Movie Review: Superhero Mashup We've Been Waiting For

Star InactiveStar InactiveStar InactiveStar InactiveStar Inactive

Justice League movie review 

JUSTICE LEAGUE is just what we've been waiting for in a superhero mashup. If you like the 70s cartoon television version of "Justice League" than you'll more than likely enjoy the latest entry in the troubled DCEU. As most critics have been noting, the CGI is questionable but more importantly the superhero team have great chemistry so you can overlook its shortcomings. Ezra Miller steals the show as The Flash, and provides the much needed comedy lacking in previous DC movies.

5 Ways Marvel Ushered In A New Amazing Spider-Man With Homecoming

 Tom Holland as Peter Parker / Spider-Man

The SPIDER-MAN: HOMECOMING might look a lot different if it weren’t for Marvel putting its footprints all over the sixth film in the Spider-Man universe.  The Marvel intervention may have never happened had it not been revealed through the 2014 cyber attack by the North Koreans that Sony and Marvel were in discussion on teaming up on the next Spider-Man movie and bringing it into the MCU, but nobody had pulled the trigger. The public pressure after hearing of the leaked emails between the two studios probably convinced Sony to bring Marvel into the fold.

Wonder Woman Review: DCEU Takes A Page From Marvel

Star InactiveStar InactiveStar InactiveStar InactiveStar Inactive

 Chris Pine and Gal Gadot in WONDER WOMAN

Marvel's cinematic universe has been successful because their films are fun. Superhero movies should be entertaining because they are fantasy. DCEU hadn't learned that lesson until now with WONDER WOMAN. There's comedy, action and heart to this WONDER WOMAN making it the most memorable DCEU film to date. That’s not the only thing borrowed from the Marvel universe. WONDER WOMAN resembles CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE FIRST AVENGER in tone and spirit.

Movie Review: 'Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales' No Walking The Plank For This One

Star InactiveStar InactiveStar InactiveStar InactiveStar Inactive

Dead Men Tell No Tales Johnny Depp Geoffrey Rush

Watching PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: ON STRANGER TIDES was the most unpleasant movie experience of my life. Luckily Disney learned from that hot mess of a movie, and DEAD MEN TELL NO TALES returns to the fun that made the original a hit. With a simple plot, a formidable new leading lady, a worthy villain played by the always effective Javier Bardem and a toned-down Jack Sparrow, PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: DEAD MEN TELL NO TALES is worthy of returning to the high seas.

Movie Review: Alien: Covenant

Alien: Covenant

The good news is that ALIEN: COVENANT makes sense and Ridley Scott may have redeemed himself from the mess that was PROMETHEUS. However, the plot lines are all too familiar to ALIEN fans, but perhaps that’s what we wanted all along.

'Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2' Movie Review: A Sci-Fi Dramedy

Star InactiveStar InactiveStar InactiveStar InactiveStar Inactive

Zoe Saldana, Chris Pratt, Dave Bautista Guardians of the Galaxy

What’s the likelihood that James Gunn could capture lightning in a bottle twice? As with most sequels, expectations should be low especially for a follow-up to a beloved movie like GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY. That’s the best way to go into GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY VOL.2. GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY VOL.2 doesn’t capture the magic of the original movie, but you have a good time watching the band of misfits on another adventure.

'Kong: Skull Island' Is An Old School Monster Movie

Kong Skull Island monster

Remember the cheesy Sinbad the Sailor adventure films in which he encountered monsters? That's what KONG: SKULL ISLAND reminds me of minus the cheese. KONG: SKULL ISLAND is a throwback to those classic adventure films featuring hideous creatures from the unknown. However, the action in KONG is far superior, brutal and director Jordan Vogt-Roberts clearly was influenced by APOCALYPSE NOW.

3 depressing holiday movies

The holidays are meant to be happy and merry, but not if you see these three totally depressing movies. Current movie releases A MONSTER CALLS, MANCHESTER BY THE SEA and COLLATERAL BEAUTY all deal with death of a parent or child.  That definitely doesn’t scream holiday spirit.

'Passengers' Movie Is A Screwed Up Love Story

Star InactiveStar InactiveStar InactiveStar InactiveStar Inactive

 Passengers Chris Pratt Jennifer Lawrence 1

PASSENGERS is not your ordinary boy meets girl love story. The trailer for the sci-fi flick is very misleading. It sells you on a Titanic-type love story set against a disaster action flick. On the contrary, Chris Pratt and Jennifer Lawrence have great chemistry, but their romance is far from romantic. Here’s why you should go in with an open mind to a film that’s off-kilter and quite screwed up.

XMen Apocalypse MichaelFassbender

The seventh film in the X-Men series hits theaters with X-MEN: APOCALYPSE directed by Bryan Singer. How does it rank among the other X-Men films in the series?  

Critics seemed to hate X-MEN: APOCALYPSE,  but audiences gave it "A-" according to CinemaScore.  For the purpose of this “Best to Least Favorite X-Men Movies List, we’re excluding X-MEN: WOLVERINE since the stand alone movie doesn’t include the usual cast of characters like Magneto, Professor X, Storm, Beast, Mystique, etc.

The Jungle Book: A Game Changer

The Jungle Book Mowgli Animals

Rarely does a 3D film make an impression apart from Avatar, but Disney’s new live action, THE JUNGLE BOOK far exceeds any expectations one could have imagined for a reboot of the classic Rudyard Kipling’s story. Director Jon Favreau (Iron Man, Chef) didn’t seem like a likely candidate to helm the effects-heavy CGI film, but he’s done a fantastic job bringing the jungle and CGI animals to life, and the viewers into that world.  Not only are the visuals outstanding, but the voice cast is perfect as is the actor playing Mowgli.

American Ultra Jesse Eisenberg Kristen Stewart image 

It’s hard to imagine Jesse Eisenberg as an action hero, but he pulls it off as a stoner turned cold-blooded killer in AMERICAN ULTRA. Surprisingly, Kristen Stewart also proves  a formidable action heroine alongside Jessie and "Nashville’s" Connie Britton who equally brings on the whoop ass.
