Posted: January 26, 2024 at 7:23 pm   /   Television, Television Reviews

If you were around during the late ‘90s and early 2000s, you’ll probably recall the massive influx of World War II video games and movies that suddenly became prevalent. Call of Duty, Medal of Honor, Brothers in Arms, Enemy at the Gates, Windtalkers, U-571…a full list would take up an entire page. While WWII as […]

Welcome to JURASSIC WORLD: CAMP CRETACEOUS, the New Netflix Show

Posted: September 18, 2020 at 8:37 am   /   Television, Television Reviews

One of my favorite movies of all time is Steven Spielberg’s 1993 larger-than-life dinosaur adventure, Jurassic Park. The adaptation of Michael Crichton’s novel is thrilling, scary, and action-packed from beginning to end. The idea of returning to this world is exciting, and it all started with the 2015 blockbuster Jurassic World starring Chris Pratt and […]

Film Review: ‘Ready Player One’ Starring Tye Sheridan, Olivia Cooke, Ben Mendelsohn

Posted: March 29, 2018 at 9:29 am   /   Movie Reviews

When the first trailer dropped for Ready Player One, I was incredibly intrigued by its premise and seemingly endless string of video game and pop culture references riddled throughout, not to mention none other than the likes of Steven Spielberg in the director’s chair. Therefore, I sought out the 2011 best-selling book by Ernest Cline. […]

Film Review: “The BFG” Starring Mark Rylance and Ruby Barnhill

If you ask the question “What is the BFG?” to two different generations, there’s a good chance you’re going to get two very different responses. Growing up in the 90’s as a computer gamer, my first reaction when I heard the title of the movie harkened back to my days of playing DOOM and Quake […]

Movie Review: ‘Lincoln’ Starring Daniel Day-Lewis, Tommy Lee Jones, David Strathairn

Posted: November 16, 2012 at 8:10 am   /   Featured, Local, Movie Reviews

Lincoln is a President that everyone knows, without really knowing the man himself. We see him on the five dollar bill, but seldom do we ask the question, “why is he on there?” Director Steven Spielberg and “Team of Rivals” author Doris Kearns Goodwin feel that one of the reasons is because of the passing […]

Blu-Ray Review: “The Adventures of Tintin: The Secret of the Unicorn”

Posted: March 14, 2012 at 9:49 pm   /   DVD/Blu-Ray Reviews, Film, Local

For me, “The Adventures of Tintin” couldn’t fail.  The talent and source material was just too great.  I had been familiar with the character due to my brother.  He watched the tv series that aired on HBO in the early ’90s.  I knew he was a young twenty something journalist who had adventures involving mysteries […]
