Ok ok, I might be a little bit biased here, but this live-action version of one of the most influential video games of the 90’s is actually…fun? I know, I’m a bit surprised myself. But get this: as someone who grew up with the blue hedgehog (I pretty […]
It doesn’t reinvigorate the genre or take the franchise in completely different directions, but “Bad Boys For Life” has a pair of live wires that would make any action flick rise above the routine. I’m talking about Will Smith and Martin Lawrence, who are still just as entertaining […]
“Bombshell” flirts with greatness so many times, it’s a shame it never truly reaches its full potential. It has an important story to tell, no doubt about that, and just the right actors to carry it through. But there’s still something missing. Charlize Theron, Nicole Kidman and Margot […]
T’is the season. Every year I struggle to find a new Christmas movie to watch, so I always end up revisiting the same old classics. I refused to see “Last Christmas” at first (it kept reminding me of the song and I can’t listen to this song anymore), […]
As far as sequels go, “The Next Level” is enjoyable enough. The harshest thing anyone can say about it is that it lacks the element of surprise, and understandably so. The 2017 movie caught audiences by surprise and delivered superior entertainment (although I was skeptical at first). So […]
In a multiplex filled with mostly blockbusters, it’s not too bad to spend some time with veteran actors in a thriller that keeps coming at you with twists and turns. “The Good Liar” is directed by Bill Condon and stars Ian McKellen as a professional con artist who […]
I don’t pretend to understand everything that goes on in this vast Terminator universe. And I admit: I have been chronologically confused about the series ever since “Rise of the Machines” hit cinemas in 2003. Know that? It doesn’t matter. Even with all its up and downs, this […]
As someone who, swimming against the current, didn’t care much for the first “Maleficent” movie, I thought this sequel was far more enjoyable. While the first film focused on retelling a classic story, this one has some new ideas that kept me entertained at every turn. Angelina Jolie […]
Plot-wise, “Gemini Man” isn’t groundbreaking by any means, but if you’re going to see it, do it for the sake of the highly advanced technological visuals. This is one of the few 3D movies that made me feel completely immersed in its world. It also helps that it […]
I couldn’t care less about a remake of the 1988 cult classic “Child’s Play”, but now that I’ve seen it, I guess you could do worse. This is a decent enough updated version that’s actually more gruesome than any other film in the franchise. Bonus points for having […]
