That is probably the biggest lie Mr. Ripley says during the entire movie. Every time he puts on an act or does an impersonation, it is always with the women. Whenever he is with the young men of this movie, for the most part, he is … Continue reading The Talented Mr. Ripley (1999)

Star Trek (TOS; 1966-1969) review
Rated: 4 / 5 The original Star Trek series. The one that made sci-fi a popular genre (before 2001: A Space Odyssey came about in 1968). Not only that, but made cerebral sci-fi a thing. Though to be fair, given budget and technology constraints, cerebral was probably the best thing the series has going for … Continue reading Star Trek (TOS; 1966-1969) review
Space Adventure Cobra (1982-1983) anime series review
http://mistakesofyouth.com/images/cobra_poster.jpg Rated: 3 / 5 https://hamgear.files.wordpress.com/2013/06/nc-17.jpg So I got interested in seeing this after someone tweeted about how awesome that Sylvester Stalone movie Cobra is, and someone else tweeted how this is the other awesome Cobra. The cover they showed of the series was of the later OVA series, with this blonde aryan guy and … Continue reading Space Adventure Cobra (1982-1983) anime series review
Godzilla: Tokyo Clash (2020) board game review
Rated: 3.5 / 5 I used to own this other board game titled King of Tokyo, a game that abstracted kaiju fights by having monsters that were rip-offs of Godzilla and King Kong, the energizer bunny, among others (some of which, to their credit, were original). We all knew we were to imagine that these … Continue reading Godzilla: Tokyo Clash (2020) board game review
White Dog (1982) and Homicide (1991) dual review, and the issue of race
There will be spoilers for both films. https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-MKWPq55b1uo/UMYwHdYOiMI/AAAAAAAAN80/b8bTb7-PaLk/s1600/poster+whitedog+2.jpg Rated: 3.5 / 5 I have to admit, the 80s to the early 90s continue to impress me. The most interesting of their films tend to have a lot of grey in their morals and themes, rather than making a pure black and white picture (assuming we're … Continue reading White Dog (1982) and Homicide (1991) dual review, and the issue of race
The International (2009) review
https://sisterrose.files.wordpress.com/2009/02/the-international-movie-poster-12.jpg Rated: 4 / 5 "The truth means responsibility!""Exactly! Which is why everyone dreads it!" Films like these are how I know cinema didn't truly start dying until at least 2012. Sure there were the signs of decay with the unofficial banning (official blacklisting) of The Path to 9/11, but that was Disney being censorious … Continue reading The International (2009) review
XCOM 2 (2016) review (w/ expansion)
Rated: 3. 5 / 5 Now this is more like it. Is it as good as the original X-COM from 1994? Hell no, nothing is. But it's definitely a better game than the previous attempt from 2012. Especially with the War of the Chosen expansion. What improvements does this make compared to the last one? … Continue reading XCOM 2 (2016) review (w/ expansion)
Half-Drunk review of The Most Fucked Up Kid Flick Ever Made
So I'm reasonably blasted right now. Pretty sure I'd send my liver into a seizure if I drank anymore booze. ... Oh, who am I kidding? I could probably gulp down a few more shots and just be fucking dandy. I just re-experienced a fucked up kid flick from my childhood. Back in the early … Continue reading Half-Drunk review of The Most Fucked Up Kid Flick Ever Made
The Long Walk Home (1991)
Rated: 1.5 / 5 So I made this review on IMDB, which is currently getting processed. On the off-chance they're as bitchy as I've heard, and they terminate both it and my short-lived account, I'm putting it here. On the chance that the review stays and my account doesn't get terminated, I'm keeping it up … Continue reading The Long Walk Home (1991)
Dreamscape (1984) and Inception (2010) dual review
DREAMSCAPE Rated: 3 / 5 INCEPTION Rated: 3.5 / 5 I've been having a hard time finding my mojo with spontaneously writing up film reviews, even for those I've recently seen. I think it has something to do with this cocksucking Wuhan Chinese kung flu COVID (can operate vividly in death; I don't know, I'm … Continue reading Dreamscape (1984) and Inception (2010) dual review
