On this little gem of a page, you can find my "reviews" for movies! As far as the reviews go, expect me to give the movie a fair go regardless of if it's an adaptation or original idea - although if I am familiar with the source, you can expect me to chime i on that as well. I've also provided amazon links at the end of each review, so if you see a movie you want to pick up you can provide a kickback to help the site keep trucking.

View the Title List by clicking the clapper image to see movies by title (assuming its been reviewed). If you know a specific movie, use the search bar to speed things up. You can also click on a MPAA Rating bar to bring up a selection of 20 movies from my comrade TPBM and I each of that Rating. I'm looking into getting the limit to be expanded by my provider though, so don't stress too much, okay?
One good action movie deserves another, and currently tonight’s movie is tearing up the most watched charts in the old Netflix watering hole. Don’t get me wrong, it does sometimes feel like any movie does that as long as it’s freshly added to the service, probably on account of all the other movies getting hidden behind the same thirty recommendations it usually throws at you - but I enjoy me some scifi military mashups, so either way I should have fun. Get ready for trauma introspection and a whole lot of explosions - tonight we watch War Machine.

We’ve put it off long enough. The first one was a great action alterative to all the super-real spat of movies that came out after the Wick movies showed folks just how cool that could be. A man made invincible by rage, pushed over the line but everyone’s favorite villains the Nazis, and so many moments that came out of left field it couldn’t be un-entertaining if it tried (unless you really aren’t cool with violence). So of course, when I heard there was a sequel, I bought it day one it came out on streaming - and then promptly threw it on the back-burner while i waited to see if i could get the full force of pals together to watch it just as everyone got busy with work and life in general. Well tonight that wait is over, tonight we hit the Road to Revenge.

Time for some old stupid fun. Well, I mean, there’s some assumptions being made. One of which is both funny to me and ageist- in that a lot of the cast still has the old action heroes I used to watch a long while ago. The other part - stupid fun - is really me just basing the enjoyability factor of the last 3 of these movies I watched and averaging it out to a good time. Let’s be real here - with a tagline like “They’ll die when they’re dead” - I’ve already gotten a chuckle and an expectation that this one isn’t going to think too hard, so grab your skull ring and polish off the one liners, tonight is Expendables 4.

Time for another movie I’ve had in my stock for a while and just haven’t gotten to watching it. It’s not exactly the one I had planned for this week, but when folks are away I find alternate play or something like that. All it means is instead of foreign action we’ll get some home-brewed kind of action instead, with some hints of horror/thriller. We watched the original and found it not bad, so surely the second could be pretty rad? What’s better than one robot? Two. Here comes M3GAN 2.0.

It’s my birthday, so I can watch what I want to and nobody can stop me. Up tonight is a random movie I found perusing the new adds to services. Hadn’t planned on it specifically, but when I read the title, saw it wasn’t an Asylum picture, and saw some of the trailer in the background I was hooked. Not like - oh yeah, this is going to be the best movie of the year kind of hooked, but “I’m gonna watch this because I’m probably going to have fun and it won’t overstay it’s welcome” kind of fun. So here we are, covered in ecto-goo and wondering how many friends i could convince to make a movie if I ever wanted to - tonight we punch ghosts with the Ghost Punchers.

We are going back a ways tonight. I remember watching this show way back when it first ran on Cartoon Network way way back in the year of 2000. Then they put on this bad boy - which I distinctly feel like I remember being a movie version - about a year later. Fast forward to now, I’ve just finished re-watching the show with a pal of mine, and for tonight’s movie we found a copy to watch. Get in touch with your inner giant robot piloting teenager, tonight we are going to watch Gundam Wing: Endless Waltz.

Brand new super-hot release right now, like fresh fresh off the press! I mean, technically I think it might have come out yesterday, but I was gonna wait until movie night to watch it anyways, so tonight’s the night! We’ll double down on this one two - as it’s an Amazon original, and it appears that Squarespace has sunset the Amazon block - that little retail link at the end of my reviews I could attach to an associates ID and make a kick back whenever someone bought stuff using the link that in fact never ever really got used so instead I keep just paying for the site out of pocket as another one of my hobbies to assault my wallet. Anyways, there’s different assaulting going on in this movie, against bad guys and possibly your sense of humor - tonight, we tune in for The Wrecking Crew.

Saw a trailer and read a pitch, and this seemed like it was going to be a fun movie. Yeah, sure, I could do all manner of movies - heck, I now have three back-logged movies that I own waiting to be watched, and another one that I’m surprised to see I haven’t done a review on (even though I know I’ve already done it for movie night at some point). Still, lets get something that looks like it should have some laughs, maybe some scares, and perhaps even some action! Grab the duster and hide under your blankets, tonight we watch Dust Bunny,.

After getting my buddy into the hobby of gunpla to the point where he now has a pile of shame, I realize there really isn’t a lot of them for me to do on here. I mean, a lot of giant robot shows tend to be just that - shows - which isn’t very fitting for a movie night. Yeah, you occasionally get some movies that function more as a compilation of sorts - like the movies for the OG Gundam show or to some extent even the Gurren Lagann movies. Now, with what’s available to me, there was really only two main options - a movie for the Seed series (which I’ve never watched), or tonight’s movie. Well, obviously, we get tonight’s movie, one that I also knew nothing about until watching it outside of someone mentioning “i really should watch it” and jazz. Grab your radios and prepare to be instructed on how war is bad again, tonight we watch Mobile Suit Gundam Thunderbolt: December Sky.

Guess what came out on digital demand? Yeah, the latest Predator movie. Guess what I’m re-watching now that I can. Yep, that newest predator movie. Enjoyed it in the theater, lets see if I have any opinions that change after watching it at home where the image quality isn’t quite as huge. I mean, the ability to pause will certainly be nice for bathroom breaks, but who knows what things I’m going to figure out in this new watch environment. Start your clicking and show off your skulls, tonight is Predator: Badlands

First movie on the first of the year, and I brought the crew together for a funny one. Yeah, sure, we could have done horror or pure action or whatnot, but if I’m being real I brought in this year by being sick for all my day off so we might as well bring some levity in with the new year - because what’s more ironically funny than taking a day off from work to do work just to be sick and not be able to do anything? Perhaps a movie about a retired Vet defending his granny from a home invasion without her knowing? When the grandson is Michael Jai White, you know you Don’t Mess with Grandma.

Festive spirit for the festive day - well, sort of. It’s got Santa in it, but it sure ain’t for kids. Christmas and Santa makes it a Christmas movie in my book - but perhaps it doesn’t have the same level of cheer some people would require. Still, perhaps we’ll have an interesting take on the old man winter. Grab your cookies and heat up some milk, tonight we venture out take a peak at the Fatman.

What’s better for the holidays then a murder? Literally probably almost anything - but a murder mystery? Chefs kiss, we all love guessing who and why. Tonight’s entry might be lacking the snow, but hey - it takes place close to home (or at least closer to actual home than most movies do) in grand old New York. Yes, there is more up here than the city. Anyways, get your white collars and you knives out, it’s time to Wake Up Dead Man.

I was playing a video game earlier and made a comment about how cool it would be to have a mode where you were laying siege to a tower dramatically and the Lord of the Rings music would kick in, and that’s all it took today. I’ve already seen the other movies, even if I’ve only done a review of one of the Hobbit ones and can’t bring myself to watch the original trilogy after a extended cut marathon that has left me unable to ever proceed past a scene of Treebeard speaking without going unconscious - but either way thought it proper time for me to get to the animated one. I mean, it’s a no brainer on paper - I like anime, I like animation, I like fantasy, so i should like this. Let’s go a head with this mouthful as we check out The War of the Rohirrim.

When a sequel comes out and you think “ I should watch that” and realize you didn’t do the first movie. It’s a tale as old as time, and usually it doesn’t stop me - but then I think “but how does a sequel come from that first one, did I forget something?:” Well, heck with it we’ll just go back and do the first movie this week, since in that classic stuck-on-repeat nature of my existence, I would have sword I already did but in fact did not do it on here. Get the tissues ready for the smell of hypernature, Japan may have Godzilla but Norway has a Troll.

It might be a holiday here in the USA, but that doesn’t mean I get to sit around all day and play. Yeah, be thankful I won’t be pulling horrible rhyming schemes like that all review, it’d probably even annoy me! Anyways, I tried to come up with something that I could tie into either Thanksgiving or the release of the new season of Stranger Things, but after some looking around and thinking I decided to go with something from the backlog and see how it pans out. I remember seeing the trailer for it and thinking it could be a real interesting idea, but I suppose only time will tell. Water levels are rising, but tonight we just go with the Flow.

Time for one from the back log. It’s been sitting there for a while. Honestly, it’s been sitting there for too long, and now that it’s on a service I don’t have to pay individually for the movie there’s no better time than now to get it before it disappears back into the pay-to-watch land. I’ve been told a lot of things about it -primarily to be ready to be confused. Now, I’ve seen some stuff, so let’s see just how bad it can really be. It’ll open doors good and bad, so you best remember it for later, tonight is Tenet.

Fun fact, but I’m writing this up on a Wednesday instead of my normal Thursday. Why am I doing this? Because my normal night might end up being busy and I’d rather have something ready early then skipping it or getting it done late. Anyways, I had to decide on something to watch with no real plan or anything outside of being kind of tired from all this dang cold, so I thought we’d just hit a movie that i saw once already and was pretty fun - although I guess you’ll need to wrestle with waiting until the end to see if I thought it was good and fun. This time around, the babysitter fights back - tonight, we are Here for Blood.

A new Predator movie comes out this weekend, and I’m excited about it. Unfortunately for my review life, I already have done all those movies - including the crossovers with Alien. Including the newest animated one. Heck, I even did that Mortal Kombat meets Predator with Nic Cage in it, so what I’m saying is I kinda don’t have a whole lot left that i can really directly tie into my excitement for that movie, so I instead opted for soldiers versus aliens, which is going to just have to be close enough alright? Trip down to Cali where the surf just brought in a tied of extraterrestrial foes - this is Battle: Los Angeles.
