The Ice Road (2021)
A fun watch if you like action and Trucks with a smidge of token woke.
I was excited to watch when I saw the cast and premise. This movie is pretty cheesy. Not technically accurate 88% of the time, but if you don't know anything about trucking, or physics you won't notice . Of course they threw in some SJW wokeness for good measure.
Again. I stuck around for the action .
Unhinged (2020)
Best crash scenes I've seen in a while.
The movie is rediculous. Its very poorly written and acted. I don't think Crowe used a fat suit , I'll say that. I still very much enjoyed the old school movie crashes. Very nice in a world of CGI.
It had alot of disjointed ham fisted messaging about the state of affairs these days. Ticked all the boxes to get produced. The ending was written by a 17 y/o .
I still give 8 stars for good ol fashioned Hollywood violence sans CG.
I Care a Lot (2020)
Disjointed mess of a movie
I wanted to like it based on the premise, but it was just a mess. Could be categorized under fantasy. Massive amounts of Simping.
Trucks (1997)
Area 51 is no where near Canada. Inventive murders.
This is some low budget Cheese core. Based on the same short story as Maximum Overdrive.
This movie is the poor 2nd cousin of MO. The acting and dialog make you root for the trucks. Its slow quite often so do t be affraid to Fast forward I promise you won't miss anything important as far as dialog or character development.
If your a fan of the genre definately watch it. Its still fun watching trucks try to kill people. The practical effects are decent and only a smidgen of mid 90s CGI.
Im not sure which is best, the RC dump truck scene or , the biohard suit. Both were CHOICE ! Brava. 👏🏻
The Thing (2011)
If you liked the original, watch this movie.
It did a great job staying close to the original, right down the cool helicopter pilot. It's called a prequel, I see why they went that route. It would have been skewered if it try to be a " remake ".
I liked the practical effects. Very cool. The CG was not great even by 2010 standards.
Polar (2019)
I really wanted to like this .
I'm a fan of Madds Mickelson's acting and movies. There were so many aspects of this movie that had amazing potential, but would quickly fizzle out to some random cut to some cartoonish goings ons. This movie was disjointed. Fun to watch. Vanessa Hudgens is surprisingly a good actress.
The Devil's Candy (2015)
A great scary movie without the B.S
This movie is amazing. No stupid twists or turns. It doesn't try to be witty or smart. It's a good ol'fashioned scary ( not horror ) movie. The acting is superb. Ethan Embry is almost unrecognizable as an Iggy Pop-esque painter / Artist. This dude did some work to get in shape, I had to pause it and think " Is this the guy that played the kid in the movie Dutch?". Pruitt Taylor Vince is amazing. He is one of the most important yet underrated actors of our time. It has a good story line that doesn't try to be too serious about its self. As a music fan, I was impressed by the soundtrack and was more impressed they got the rights to a Metallica song! In the early 90's Metallica turned down John Carpenter when he asked to use Enter Sand Man in his movie " The Mouth of madness" and Carpenter is a legend.
This is a fun movie for fans of visual effects , story and sound track.
The Orville (2017)
I have been waiting a long time for a cool SciFi comedy
Seth MacFarlane and his crew are out of this world funny ( badum Tiss). A fantastic homage to Star Trek TNG. I can't help but wonder how long it will take before we see Jean Luc pi,,, I mean Sir Patrick Stewart make a cameo. He is Deputy Director Bullock on American Dad. Another Macfarlane joint.
Death Note (2017)
Lots of nerd rage here but, as an objective watcher I liked it.
I'm not an anime or Manga fan. I thought the movie was decent. The production value and acting was good. The main actor got a lot of grief online for his " scream" when he first meets the demon guy or what ever he is but, I've seen high school kids scream like little babies for less. If anything you could argue the scream was too realistic for a movie, though that's a dumb argument. I understand the source material was manga and anime and to die hards I'm sure it sucked comparatively but, It was a neat story with good plot twists . I'd recommend watching it for what it is not for what it is "supposed to be" .
F Is for Family (2015)
I love this show. Bill Burr uses this family to bring his humor to life
What does it say about me that this show reminds me of growing up in a middle (low) middle class family in the 80's. I love the humor and the real life situations that too many of us can probably relate. Through all the cursing and jokes there is still a strong message about friends and family. It's not, PC by any means but, if you can't laugh at this show then it's not for you any way. I hope more seasons are in the works.
Jack Reacher: Never Go Back (2016)
Yikes! This movie was really, not good.
I enjoyed the first movie and had high hopes. This sequel was not good. Lots of corny action and dialog. Rife with errors. Did they have a military consultant? An E1 could have pointed out most mistakes.
The story, dialogue and action are way overdone and cheesy. This movie has been made a hundred times in the past, just under different titles.
Teen Titans Go! (2013)
A fun, funny show. No sour grapes here.
Look, I'm a 35 year old man , I never watch cartoons except Futurama, family guy etc. But this teen titans is a fun show. I've never seen the original but even so why compare this to the original? It's it's own show . I'm old enough that almost all my old favorites have been remade but I'm not going to slog through online comments sections bitter that the new ninja turtles are crap compared to those of yesteryear. I just don't watch it. They are purposely adapting and appealing to a new generation of kids not adults who are cartoon aficionados. I like this show It's well written,corny in a fun way and this is one of the only shows I'm happy to sit and watch with my kids,we laugh together. Good job teen titans go!
