The Invisible Guest (REVIEW)

Concessions Confession: The Invisible Guest is everything you’d want in a mystery thriller, full of twists, deception, and tantalizing crime.  Following the contemporary thriller format of misdirection and making the ‘mystery’ itself what needs to be solve; The Invisible Guest might take its trickery too far but never stops being engaging. Log Line: Spanish businessman …

A Tale of The Two Popes

A film that demonstrates a rich dichotomy between ideological differences can be considered as old as film itself. Yet, international director Fernando Meirelles (City of God, Blindness) delivers with his recent film The Two Popes in constructing the perfect paradox of a film that feels entirely timeless as well as crucially contemporary.

Scooby Doo and Those Meddling Marketing Schemes

Why Every Blogger Should Watch Netflix’s The Circle

So, I have just watched the recent Netflix Original series The Circle and let me just say that it is one of the lowest common denominator pandering, reality television nonsense… and I love it! The self-proclaim “social media competition” mixes elements of Big Brother and Catfish to address new age internet culture behind the ruse …

Invader Zim: Enter the Florpus

Amidst the qualms of suburbia, you find something truly spooky to deal with…. Neighbors. Beyond the unkempt lawns and picket fences what are those around us hiding? Probably no life, just like you and me. What if your neighborhood was infiltrated by someone or rather something truly horrifying? Someone on the registry? No, well yes. …

Games and Thrones – Kakegurui xx Review

7 Psychopaths and a Game of Craps is back! That was a joke I made in my original Kakegurui review, which is an important one from my end. It was actually my very first anime review and after re-reading it to gain some perspective for this review I think it’s… okay. It’s interesting to see …

‘Velvet Buzzsaw’ What Exactly Am I Looking At?

"I can't save you"- Hoboman After watching a film as dense and awkwardly presented as Velvet Buzzsaw one might hope that a self-proclaimed critic such as myself can clarify the film in some regards or possibly legitimize your feelings of disdain or satisfaction. However, in this case I have to refrain and admit to you …

Top 5 Things I Didn’t Cover in 2018

By now you've probably seen everyone else hit you with what they consider the best of this last year... I don't consider myself much of an authority to much such claims. Though while we ring in the new year I guess I have some unfinished business when it comes to recommending television and films from …

Is There Such a Thing as Too Much Christmas Dog?

Twas the night before Christmas and all here is groovy. Except for the panic to gift one more Christmas post from K at the Movies. " I have no ideas and there's only one week!" K let out in a shriek. K shrugged his shoulder comforted by the thought that whatever he would have come …

Is ‘Roma’ (2018) as Good as They Say?

“Fellini’s Roma” was attacked in some circles as an example of Fellini coasting on his genius. I find this point of view completely incomprehensible. Critics who would force Fellini back into traditional narrative films are missing the point; Fellini isn’t just giving us a lot of flashy scenes, he’s building a narrative that has a …

Netflix Roulette

Come one, come all it's time to spin the Netflix Wheel. As I teased in my prior post, I am using the Reelgood website which is a quick and easy way to get randomized Netflix flicks to watch. So this is what happened after I took three spins of the wheel. (This post was my …

I’ve Been Nominated for ‘The Blog Complainer’s Appreciation Award’

If you've spent enough time exploring the content in the depths of WordPress, then I’m sure you’ve stumbled upon some mention of blogger awards you know: Versatile, Mystery and Sunshine …

Everyone has an Opinion on ‘She-Ra’! This is Mine

It’s She-Ra (CLAP CLAP) she’s a hero (CLAP CLAP). This is the wrong Sunday morning cartoon. Welcome to She-Ra and the Princesses of Politics a show that no matter what opinion you hold, countless people will hate you. I’ve heard the perspective from the detractors, and I’ve listened to the defenders and I’ve watched the show …

What is “Don’t Watch This”? ( Netflix Review)

In the spirit of Halloween I decided to check out the Netflix "series" titled Don't Watch This and every review I've seen of it makes the same joke how the title really represents the show well. To me, Don't Watch This is quite possibly the most bafflingly incompetent show I've ever seen. So Don't Watch …

Don’t Be Caught ‘Gnome Alone’? (Review)

I'm only reviewing this because I'm producing the sequel, Country Roads, Take Me Gnome. It's a road trip movie... but with gnomes. WHAT EVERYONE WANTS! Haha just...why did I watch this?? Netflix wanted to respond to all you Luke Cage and Iron Fist fans and delivery you something to keep your subscription and that's apparently....Gnome …

Netflix Quick Review: Adventures in Public School

Adventures in Public School is the perfect film, for when you don't want to feel the actual emotion-packed into To All The Boys I've Loved, but your not at the point of self-loathing that you actually waste your time watching The Package. Netflix finally pulled the cord and now people like me might be outlet …

‘A Perfect Man’ is Unintentionally Kinda Funny (Review)

I'm not going to say much on A Perfect Man (2013) because honestly, who gives a fudge about A Perfect Man. I'm just going to ramble nonsensically but this movie is lowkey hilarious. You know the dialogue is bad when I watch the opening scene and think that this is some kind of "movie within …

What Exactly is Happening in ‘Enemy’? (Debate/Theory)

The Denis Villeneuve directed, Jake Gyllenhaal starring mystery thriller Enemy shows a problematic clash when Adam Bell a history professor meets an actor who is his exact doppelganger. To everyone who has seen the film will agree that things are never quite as they seem and here we will debate the possible theories as to …

Is the She-Ra “Controversy” Really Just the Future of Marketing?

A beloved franchise is returning in modern times and is facing scrutiny from fans of the original. Also, in today’s news water is wet. Quite a few news outlets have already covered the topic, but I think I have the most bizarre hot take on this that you might want to buckle in. She-Ra is …

‘The Girl in the Book’ – Film Review

I can't believe this film has a 92% on Rotten Tomatoes. Feel free to disagree but I felt this film was a classic example of "good premise" and sincere intentions but incredibly lackluster execution. The Plot The Girl in the Book is a flashback narrative that focuses on a book editor assistant named Alice and how …

Netflix You Suck! I’m Going To Miss You User Reviews

If you haven't heard the news, Netflix is removing user reviews from it's site and I'm Grr... angry about it. No more stars and no more comments on the movie and I for one am going to miss it. There are numerous reviews on my site in which I checked the user reviews to get …

Vine Star’s Awful Comedy Movie – Holiday Breakup (At the Movies #2)

https://youtu.be/Ys_f55YR5JM I'm glad vine is dead. The video is admittedly a little rough around the edges but I mean so is sand paper. Sorry my thoughts aren't very cohesive in this one either, in my defense this movie slowly eats away at your IQ I swear.  Below while be the video script if you're one …

Hannah Gadsby’s Comedy Special ‘Nanette’ is Divisive yet Fascinating

Where does one even begin to discuss this special? I pretty much like to keep the peace so I'm going to be walking on more eggshells than that time your teacher dropped all the those eggs off a ladder. I'm sorry Ms. Robinson, how was I supposed to know what to do with 5 cotton …

Netflix Finally Did It! ‘set it up’ is the First Decent Original Movie!

  Netflix did it, maybe my standards have slowly been chipped away but Netflix finally made a "good" movie. In fairness, I haven't seen every Netflix film, and I've missed some recent ones in Kissing Booth (no thank you) and Alex Strangelove or how I Learned to Stop Worry and Love a Guy. Netflix always …

Reasons Why “13 Reasons Why” Season 2 is Hated

13 Reasons Why is a guilty pleasure of mine, Netflix's attempt to copy an MTV teen drama in the vein of Teen Wolf, Awkward, or Finding Carter but with an interest in the taboo. Though like many "angered voices on the internet" despite my disapproval of returning for a second season not because of the …

Doki Doki Gambling Club? What the Hell is Kakegurui?

Should I be embarrassed that I watched this? Nothing against anime, but watch the end credits, or the opening credits, or two minutes of this and you might question what you're doing. I’ve been in a show hole and haven’t wanted to watch anything that I needed something bizarre to get me out of it …
