Man from U.N.C.L.E. Review – Too Hot for the Cold War
When the original Man from U.N.C.L.E. tv show aired, from 1964-1968, the Cold War was a real thing. We were straight off of Kennedy’s showdown with Fidel Castro over Cuba; the Berlin Wall separated families and men and women were desperate enough to escape that they risked death to cross over; the exploits of spies […]
Review – Mission: Impossible Rogue Nation – It’s the Tom Cruise Show and We Like It

Ant-Man, a Not-so-Small, Hit!
Ant-Man, a Not-so-Small, Hit! This review may contain spoilers: I openly admit to being very pessimistic about this film.

At a certain point a movie becomes so bad that reviewing it becomes almost counter productive. It’s like yelling at a […]

Raise Your Hand If You Want Tomorrowland!
It boggles my mind that most people rate Tomorrowland on its merit as a film. While that might be important on a superficial level, it’s not WHY the movie was made. I thought it was perfect, though maybe (clearly) it’s not for everyone (yet). Some people will say, “Yeah, I got it,” and then get […]

Tomorrowland – Review
Tomorrowland’s hopeful message is enhanced by a simple but wonderful Cherokee legend called The Two Wolves. An old Grandfather said to his grandson, who came to him with anger at a friend who had done him an injustice, “Let me tell you a story. I too, at times, have felt a great hate for those […]
