Bernie, 2011

I’m kind of embarrassed it took me this long to finally watch this movie. Jack Black turned in one his finest and subdued performances ever. I can just tell this will end up being a movie that I’ll break out every year or so to re-watch.

The Kingdom, 2007

A good cast and a plot with some interesting things to say. Peter Berg sure does know how to shoot an entertaining movie.

Apostle, 2018

I can’t really put my finger on the reasons, but this movie never really clicked for me. It had all the right ingredients for something special, just not creepy enough I suppose. I still would check it out if you are a fan of Evans’ other work,

The First Purge, 2018

I’ve grown to love this series but even I have to say there just isn’t any more story to tell here after this prequel. Even after saying that I will still check out the tv series.

The Death of Superman, 2018

It’s strange that DC is already remaking their own animated movies. I did like this quite a bit. The animation was better than the original but I still do not like Superman’s character design. Splitting the story in 2 parts gives this first part more time with the characters before...

A Dark Song, 2016

A very good slow burn. I liked how they treated the rituals in a very procedural type of way. I really seem to enjoy movies that leave you guessing the entire time if what you are seeing is going to actually lead to something major happening or not.

Hold the Dark, 2018

I’m a huge Saulnier fan and you can’t beat his visual style. I found bits of the plot confusing and it made more sense once I searched out the original book’s ending.
