Mayem (*1/2) and now for something not so different
…this film makes its fellow office massacre film The Belko Experiment look like Shakespeare.
-
Marry Me (**1/2) Thanks, but no thanks
Marry Me is a romantic comedy without the comedy. It’s Notting Hill without the depth of character.
-
Daily Wire’s Shut In (*** 1/2) – Uses the best parts
This film is a tough watch, but it is worthy. One should not watch this nor should they avoid it simply because of who produced it.
-
Resident Evil – Welcome to Racoon City (*1/2) Here’s blood in your eye
This film is appreciable for it’s dedication for recreating the original stories. The problem is, the story is better when you are playing a video game at 3 a.m. all hopped up on Mountain Dew.

Antlers (****) earns our fears
The atmosphere is such that it gave me tangential nightmares the night I saw them. Not many films do this anymore.
-
The Eyes of Tammy Faye (***) – All you are is blind
If nothing esle, the movie gives us some depth to what feels like an incredibly trite characterization living in memory.
-
Scream (***1/2) is still Scream 5
The sins of this film are outweighed by a brisk pace and some pretty gruesome kills.
-
Morgan (**1/2) feels like a prelude
The film doesn’t hold up, but with perhaps a bit more story, it’s premise could be really something.
-
The 355 (***) We’re spies, asshole
It’s not easy to love this film. It’s relatively easy to like, just for the women’s talent alone.

The Matrix: Resurrections (***1/2) Old Code, Something New?
It wouldn’t hurt to show a single blade of grass growing in some dirt. All in good time, I suppose. Maybe part 5?
