Break Time Reviews
Michael Bay has an iconic (okay, sure, iconic only to some) filmography. Armageddon, Bad Boys, The Rock, Transformers, the list goes on. And you can add Ambulance to the list of insane Bay movies. But what’s perhaps most interesting is that Ambulance is actually a pretty good movie. And not just “good for Michael Bay” […]
“Unfathomably incompetent.” That was my initial thought once the credits started to roll on Morbius. Lazy, bland, surface level at every turn. I think the “bland” note is what I keep coming back to the most. Nearly every decision made in Morbius was the most obvious, boring decision that could have been made. (Matt Smith […]
When you think of a thriller or mystery, you probably imagine one big, central mystery that every event in the movie leads up to. The tension builds and builds until it reaches an explosive climax. And when it’s done well, it’s great. There might be smaller reveals along the way, and that’s all well and […]
It’s 1979 and you’re in rural Texas shooting an adult film. You rent out a guesthouse on the farm of an elderly, possibly senile, couple, and you hide from them what you’re really there to do. What could go wrong? Well, a lot, actually, if you’re the film team in X, the latest from Ti […]
Deep Water is a lot of things. A “good” movie is not one of them. But a “fun” movie? Well, kind of. And yet I somehow still kind of had a good time watching it? It’s weird. It doesn’t really fit into the “so bad it’s good” category. Lots of the technical aspects are well […]
This review is going to be a little different. I always think you should go into a new movie knowing as little as possible, just what’s in the trailers (though they seem to be getting worse with how much they give away) and maybe a quick plot description. If you want less than that, more […]
Nobody will disagree that Batman is one of the most iconic and well-known characters of any medium. It’s a rich character with countless storylines to pull from and adapt and a rogues gallery that can go toe to toe with anyone. And it’s this history and familiarity that makes it both easy and difficult to […]
We all know the saying, “A dog is a man’s best friend.” And it tracks. Dogs are the best. And they show time and again that they just might be too good for us. Well that notion is put to the test in the aptly named Dog, the Channing Tatum-starring buddy road trip comedy-drama – […]
Marry Me is a ridiculous movie. A world-wide superstar singer, Kat Valdez (Jennifer Lopez), and her world-wide superstar singer fiancé Bastian (Maluma) are getting married mid-concert, in front of millions of fans across the world. But when Kat learns Bastian has been cheating on her with her assistant only moments before the two are set […]
If you would have told me watching a 69 year old Liam Neeson limp-run and slow-fight his way through Blacklight, his latest action thriller, would be a painful experience, I would have said, yeah, that sounds about right. Liam Neeson is not the young man he once was. He’s not even the middle-aged or just-over-middle-aged […]
