Oblivion

I’ve seen Tom Cruise’s Oblivion maybe half a dozen times, and I can tell you with confidence, this movie deserves a place among the pantheon with the best sci-fi films of all time.

Why Michael Bay’s Transformers films are Narrative Genius

Is Michael Bay a genius? Are the Transformers movies anything more than a loud, sexist, racist homophobic mess? There may be a meaning buried under this crap.

Dune, Part 1

Dennis Villenueve’s Dune is a slow, complicated, visually stunning political, religious and sci fi slow burn with little payoff and a high amount of investment. If you’re a fan of instant gratification, you may not enjoy the movie. If you can handle high concept sci fi, politics, prophecy, and two and a half hours of

No Time to Die

Warning: This review contains spoilers for all of the Craig Bond movies, Avengers: Infinity War, Harry Potter, and possibly a few more movies. This also a longer review. Tl;dr: Daniel Craig’s No Time to Die doesn’t have the balls to be the best Bond movie it could be. 

Malignant

So James Wan is trying again, and this time he’s mixing supernatural elements with medical gore and a bit of mindfuckery. It’s an odd feeling to realize that this is the movie he abandoned The Conjuring 3 to make, considering how similarly these two films turned out, in that they both have a great effort

Ghost in the Shell (2017)

I know it’s not a popular opinion, but I really liked 2017’s #GhostInTheShell. I talk about why I like it, and why it sucks. An old review posted as part of stylistic, sci fi, action, female protagonist movie thread.

10 Cloverfield Lane

10 Cloverfield Lane is a fresh new take on the sci-fi thriller genre. It’s worth a watch, but it’s also worth knowing what you’re getting into.

Atomic Blonde

Atomic Blonde does a lot right and a lot wrong. The plot was by no means original, and it really didn’t need to be, but they managed to goof it up to the point that I really just wanted the movie to be over halfway in. Worth a watch if you’ve got a night off, and really only around the 50 minute mark if you’ve got a night in. 

Kate

I watched Kate across two nights, because the first time I tried to watch it, I was bored enough to turn it off and restart New Girl for the umpteenth time. This is not a review for the movie Kate, this will now be a review for the first four episodes of season 1, starring

The Daniel Craig Bond Films

Have you ever noticed that Daniel Craig looks a lot like Kevin McKidd? Imagine a world where McKidd made it as Bond, and Craig was a doctor at Grey Sloan Memorial. I still wouldn’t hate myself any less for watching 15 seasons of the show.
