This is one of those times where I wanted to enjoy the finished product far more than I actually did, and in some ways that makes Ditched even more disappointing than it would have been had it just been terrible from the jump.

Munich: The Edge of War is a handsome film, made with precision and care.

WarHunt is firing blanks, and any magic it may have had vanishes at roughly the halfway mark, never to return.

I liked Scream. I had a lovely time watching it. I was also not anywhere near as enamored with the film as I have been the previous sequels, most notably Scream 2 and Scream 4.

See for Me is an entertaining little thriller featuring two strong lead performances and chilling sequences overflowing in suspense.

It’s not a total waste of time, and if you’ve got laundry to do or have a game of pinochle to play, having The 355 on in the background as ambient noise will likely do quite nicely.

The King’s Man is an abhorrently unlikable misfire, and I truly hope I do not have to see its like again anytime soon.

On a series built upon a foundation of waking up from a false reality, learning to embrace inner truths, and crafting chosen families free from societal paradigms, The Matrix Resurrections deconstructs its mythos even as it celebrates the ideas it has always held nearest to its heart.

There’s nothing provocative about The Tender Bar. Even the bits that fell flat didn’t do so in a way that were so egregious I could get angry about them. I just wish that Clooney and Monahan had brought more to the production than just a general easygoing vibe that refuses to challenge and goes out of its way to not offend.
