John Wick

John Wick (2014) Review

John Wick is exactly the bullet to the face that the American action picture desperately needed. There’s nothing remotely new to the mostly predictable narrative of this film and that’s totally fine – it’s just lean, mean, and very, very effective. Obviously inspired by the blood ballet that is The Raid and The Raid 2…

Concussion Review

I am shocked and confused by how little respect was paid to Peter Landesman’s confident, important, and all together sad true life story Concussion, which documents the mostly futile attempts by the brilliant Dr. Bennet Omalu to wake the NFL up to a massive health issue, played in a nearly career topping performance by Will…

10 Cloverfield Lane Review

10 Cloverfield Lane is a fun and effective chiller that is disingenuously positioning itself as a sequel or side-quel or whatever you want to call it to Matt Reeves’ multiple genre-busting 2008 film Cloverfield.

The Witch Review

I’m not a horror movie guy. They don’t scare me, I’m always aware of cinematic artifice, and I find most attempts at “scary movies” to be cheap and obvious and boring. The Witch, however, is a cut above the genre competition, despite not really being the film I expected to see and avoiding certain horror…

Lost Tree Movie Still

The Lost Tree Review

The Lost Tree revolves around Noah who after a serious traumatic accident, leaves his old life behind and moves to an isolated cabin to start over but soon learns about the sinister past of his new surroundings. Instantly the movie visually looks like a drama piece, and depicts it’s surroundings to match the tone and…
