A ★★★★ review of Lost in Translation (2003) Introducing this to the gang with mixed results. I like "vibe" movies in general and this is a good one. Scarlet is a delight and Bill Murray doesn't phone it in. I almost melted when every My Bloody ...

A ★★½ review of UFOs: It Has Begun (1979) Now that's what im talking about! Been on a vintage paranormal doco kick lately and the YouTube gods have served up a prime slice. Pretty standard stuff, lots of middle aged guys pontificating, b-roll...

A ★★★★ review of One Battle After Another (2025) Engaging but messy with overbearing score. You'll find solid performances, thoughtful direction and a cool vibe. Film #31 of 2026.

A ★★★½ review of Mars Attacks! (1996) Tim Burton was in his transition phase from quirky autuer to mainstream Hollywood guy. Goes full Boomer with a rather fun cast and a messy story. Film #28 of 2026.

A ★★★ review of Thunderbolts* (2025) I was in the mood for slop and here it is. In my face. The bottomless snark of the first 45 minutes was driving me up the wall and I almost checked out. Kept going and found a reasonably entertaining ...

A ★★½ review of The Expendables 3 (2014) Yikes, film log is getting very mainstream this year. Part Three doesn't bring much to the table, hurt by being PG 13. A few decent action scenes but the slow pacing kills the party. Film #23 of 2026.

A ★★★½ review of The Expendables 2 (2012) Still objectively terrible but a step up from the first film. Astounding action scenes with solid direction. Film #22 of 2026.

A ★★★ review of Escape Plan (2013) Should have been really fun but curiously bland and grey. Film #19 of 2026.

A ★★★ review of The Expendables (2010) Despite the stacked cast this barely scrapes up a pass. Sure its got action violence but the story needed a few more drafts. We just finished watching Rambo 2 and 3, they were more coherent than this....

A ★★★½ review of Rambo (2008) Sylvester goes back for one last mission in this grim series entry. Really leans into the bloodshed but feels like one of the first three films. The start of the heavy handed colour grading era. Film ...

A ★★★ review of Dust Bunny (2025) Looks lovely and made with real flair, too bad it make not a lick of sense. Its a big swing that I always appreciate, unfortunately I bounced off this one. Film #15 of 2026.

A ★★★ review of Rambo III (1988) A film that has aged like milk. Still you'll find lots of satisfying explosions and general violence. Looks fantastic, why don't movies look like this anymore. Film #14 of 2026.

A ★★★½ review of Rambo: First Blood Part II (1985) Adorable action shitfest with a highly questionable premise. A tour de force of squibs and non stop explosions. Film #13 of 2026.

A ★★★½ review of MaXXXine (2024) Phone ate my long review but ill just say this was kind of a mess but I had a good time with it. Loved seeing gritty 1985, quite realistic. Film #11 of 2026.

A ★★★½ review of The Fabulous Baron Munchausen (1962) Dazzling visuals with every practical effect and analog trick in the book. Hokey story that winds up pretty charming in the end. Film #10 of 2025.

A ★★★★½ review of Avatar: Fire and Ash (2025) Couldn't shake the feeling that this is a big step up from The Way of Water. Thrilling with solid character work and a surprising amount of emotional heft, this is Cameron unleashed. A true technical ...
