Reviews of movies and television programs
Nefarious
A Christian-themed horror movie. As bad as it sounds. Not Recommended. Continue reading Nefarious
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3
This is how all superhero franchises should end: on a high note. Highly Recommended. Continue reading Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3
Strange World
A curiously unformed and modestly thrilling animated adventure tale from Disney. See Innerspace, Jumanji or Fantastic Voyage instead. Not Recommended. Continue reading Strange World
We’re All Going to the World’s Fair
The internet and social media are horrifying. Looking for meaning in them is even worse. A challenging film that, while thought-provoking, doesn’t hold in the end. Toss-up. Continue reading We’re All Going to the World’s Fair
The Super Mario Bros. Movie
Mario eats mushrooms, meets a beautiful princess, fights a gorilla, drives recklessly and defeats a dragon with a Meatloaf complex. Definitely no sleep ’till Brooklyn! Continue reading The Super Mario Bros. Movie
The Pope’s Exorcist
Russell Crowe’s Father Amorth takes on a nasty demon tormenting expats in a crumbling abbey in Spain. Sounds like a party, and it is. Recommended. Continue reading The Pope’s Exorcist

Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves
The life of Edgin (Chris Pine) is a tale of misfortune and woe, sung in a pleasing tenor. In the fantasy realm where Dungeons and Dragons: Honor Among Thieves takes place, he formerly was a member of a peacekeeping group known as the Harpers. The Harpers worked with the Red Wizards to keep things orderly. … Continue reading Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves
A Good Person
A well-made tearjerker about drug addiction. Solid performances by Florence Pugh and Morgan Freeman make this worth watching. Mildly Recommended. Continue reading A Good Person
The Fabelmans
Spielberg tells the story of his childhood. His journey as a director coincides with his parents divorce. One of Spielberg’s most personal films that naturally ends with a note of optimism. Highly Recommended. Continue reading The Fabelmans
