Red One: Christmas Magic
I have a fondness for Christmas movies but even more importantly, my favorite Christmas movie is an action film. So when I saw the trailers for Red One I was excited. With a fantastic cast and promises of exhilarating action, I looked forward to seeing the film. What I discovered when I watched the screening…
“My Old Ass”: A Fresh Twist on Coming of Age
I wanted to see “My Old Ass” as soon as I knew Aubrey Plaza was in the film but add in meeting yourself back when you’re eighteen, it sounded too good to miss. I felt like the concept could be funny but what I loved was how it was a fresh twist on the coming…
Fall For Him by Andie Burke: Full of Heart
Dylan Gallagher’s hot neighbor loathed him from the second he moved in, and causing a flood, falling through the floor, and landing directly onto that same neighbor’s bed probably means that’s unlikely to change. The poorly timed “It’s Raining Men” joke didn’t help. Meanwhile, ER nurse Derek Chang’s life is a literal when-rains-it-pours nightmare. A…
Between the Temples: Quirky and Upbeat
When I saw the trailer for Between the Temples, I found myself fascinated and hopeful. With both Jason Schwartzman and Carol Kane in the movie, I knew both are very capable actors and funny. Once I watched the film, I was struck by how quirky and upbeat it is as it explores how messy and…
Kneecap: Music is the Star
Anything that is music based is always of interest to me and this one even more so with the use of the Irish language. I was very hopeful that it would be an interesting film and I wasn’t disappointed. The film was riotously colorful, unique and full of intriguing characters. While the story is fun,…

I have loved the Despicable Me films from the very beginning. I love animation and comedy; with Steve Carrell voicing Gru, they’ve been wonderful fun, so I was excited that we were getting a new film after seven years. Despicable Me 4 is hilarious family fun with a cast of crazy characters that will keep…
Thelma: Delightfully Funny
I like different, especially in movies. I’m always looking for something that’s going to be entertaining but add a different point of view. When I heard about Thelma, I was excited because in this film, the main hero is an elderly woman. When I got the chance to watch the film, I found it as…
Running Close to the Wind by Alexandra Rowland: Brilliantly Funny
Avra Helvaçi, former field agent of the Araşti Ministry of Intelligence, has accidentally stolen the single most expensive secret in the world—and the only place to flee with a secret that big is the open sea. To find a buyer with deep enough pockets, Avra must ask for help from his on-again, off-again ex, the…
“The Idea of You”: Charming Performances
I’ve liked Anne Hathaway even as a young actress. In “The Idea of You”, she plays the older woman, a far different role than she’s taken on before and I wanted to see what that looked like. In addition, Nicholas Galitzine has been outstanding in the performances I’ve seen him in. Together, the pair have…
“The Fall Guy” Thumbs up Action and Fun
Ever since I saw the first trailers, I knew I wanted to see “The Fall Guy”. Not only did I watch the original tv series with Lee Majors but from the trailers, it looked like Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt were going to be comedy gold together. When I finally got the chance to see…
