Rated: 3/5* * = with caveats, especially with dialogue that self-references the year. "Helloooo? This is 1967! I can do whatever I want!" Introduction ... ... ... Ok, so this movie. I had reservations going in. But there are times where I get sick and tired of being on edge, of having such a high … Continue reading Detroit review and discussion of Hollywood’s portrayal of racism over the years

Atomic Blonde and The Blood of Heroes dual review, and a discussion on female empowerment
Rated: 2/5 Cocksucker? Really? It was convincing wasn't it? So I must confess, Atomic Blonde is a film that I initially didn't have any interest in. That is, until I saw this little parody via Steven Crowder: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AD3TSrfwJgE Now for the record, prior to watching the film, I assumed he was just exaggerating with … Continue reading Atomic Blonde and The Blood of Heroes dual review, and a discussion on female empowerment
Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets review
Rated 3/5 Eh, this movie is just ok. It's entertaining enough and all, it looks great, but it's not something all that memorable to me. But it does make me interested in checking out the comic series Valerian and Laureline (started all the way back in 1967, and ended in 2010). I haven't read the … Continue reading Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets review
Dunkirk review
Rated: 3/5 This is one of a very few select theatrical films coming out this year that I've been eager to see. The number of films I'm willing to shell out money for (let alone time) has been dwindling over the past couple years, and this year has accelerated that trend for me. Christopher Nolan … Continue reading Dunkirk review
It Comes at Night, and The Adventures of the American Rabbit dual review
So some bad news and good news first. The bad news, I got fired from my full-time job. The good news, I can blog more. And I wanted to do 2 films, not because of the special occasion, but because one of these films is so damn bleak that I needed something ridiculously cheery to … Continue reading It Comes at Night, and The Adventures of the American Rabbit dual review
13th review
Rated: 2/5 America. Home to 5% of the world's population. America, which has 25% of the world's total prison population. The highest rate of incarceration in the world. For a country so great that illegals would want to flock to it, one would wonder why it is that the prison population is so high (or did … Continue reading 13th review
Do the Right Thing review and discussion on racism
Rated: 3/5 So "nigger" is an offensive word right? At least when white people use it? But why is that exactly? From what I've been taught, it has to do with the past, during the 1800s to the late 1900s (depending on which area of America you are at). A term used by white men … Continue reading Do the Right Thing review and discussion on racism
Alien: Covenant and Baby Driver dual review
Yep, review of two movies, because I don't feel like doing excessive typing for just one of them. Mainly because lately I've been focusing on novels rather than films and games, though I've been getting addicted to The Elder Scrolls: Legends, a card game in the same vein as Hearthstone. In case you're curious about … Continue reading Alien: Covenant and Baby Driver dual review
Transformers 1-5 epic review
Yep, all 5 films into one review. Why? Because the films try to be grand and epic, and lengthy. Transformers Rated: 3/5 NOTE: Fair warning, I was high while writing this portion of the review. It might come off as a bit sporadic and stuff. Probably helps replicate the feel of the franchise. So, looks … Continue reading Transformers 1-5 epic review
Gloom of Kilforth review
Image by Tristan Hall Rated: 3/5 Introduction So after bitching about the censorship of the artwork on one of the cards, and later apologizing for it since it ended up not being censorship at all, finally got a hold of the game and played it, solo. So small controversy aside, how is this "roughly 10 … Continue reading Gloom of Kilforth review
