Space Jam [1996] ★★½
Call this a nostalgia review, but after I went through a roller-coaster of emotions while watching the fantastic Chicago Bulls documentary “The Last Dance”, I decided to stream Michael Jordan’s “Space Jam”, which I also found on Netflix. For those of you who grew up in the 90’s, this movie was kind of a big…

Classic Movies I Don’t Love
I haven’t written anything controversial ever since fanboys messaged me for hating on 2014’s “Godzilla”, so I thought it would be a good idea to tackle something that has been on my mind for a while now: what are some classic movies that I don’t personally love? Don’t get me wrong, most of the films I’m…

6 Great Nicolas Cage Movies
People often ask me: why do you hate Nicolas Cage? Truth be told, I don’t. Aside from the shitty movies he’s been doing for the past decade, Cage is an Oscar winner and one the most popular stars of the 90’s. Let’s take a closer look at some of his finest moments. Yes, they do…

Groundhog Day [1993]
One of my all time favorites. Bill Murray gives what may be the best performance of his career in this unique comedy, arguably the best of the 1990’s. Murray plays Phil Connors, a cynical and grumpy weatherman who is dispatched with producer Rita (Andie MacDowell) and cameraman Larry (Chris Elliot) to a friendly town in Pennsylvania to…

The Big Lebowski [1998]
One big funny joke, courtesy of the Coen brothers, about an unemployed slacker better known as “The Dude” (Jeff Bridges in a one of a kind hilarious role) who’s mistaken for a big shot millionaire of the same name, and then gets hired by the guy to deliver a ransom when his wife is kidnapped.…

The Hurricane [1999]
Exceptional movie follows the story of Rubin “Hurricane” Carter (Denzel Washington in one of the best performances of his career), a proud, talented prizefighter unjustly convicted of a brutal crime he obviously didn’t commit. Locked away for almost 20 years, his once forgotten case surprisingly reemerges when a small group of supporters decide to help…
-
JFK [1991]
Brilliant movie from director Oliver Stone about the assassination of John Kennedy, and the investigation that followed his death. Kevin Costner gives the performance of his career as the attorney who becomes obsessed with the case; he is convinced that there’s more to the assassination than the official story (a conspiracy maybe?). His final speech (which is 20 minutes…

What Dreams May Come [1998]
I really wanted to write a positive review about “What Dreams May Come”, but truth be told, I couldn’t. It may be visually impressive (the special effects won an oscar), but the story is so damn confusing and awfully boring that I couldn’t care less about the characters. Robin Williams is Chris Neilson, a guy who…

Dances With Wolves [1990]
“They were a people so eager to laugh, so devoted to family, so dedicated to each other. The only word that comes to mind is harmony”. While watching this movie, I had a feeling of deja vu. I felt like I’ve seen this story before. Then it hit me: “Avatar”. Now I know that “Dances…

Ed Wood [1994]
The story of the “worst director” of all time Edward Wood Jr. and how he produced his low budget movies “Glen or Glenda”, “Bride of the monster” and “Plan 9 from outer space”. Johny Depp is terrific as Wood and he’s surrounded by a talented cast aswell (Martin Landau is brilliant in his oscar winning…
