The Princess is basically Joey King trying her John Wick skills in medieval times- the eatery not the actual time period at least that's the vibe I get. This isn't a great movie but it was a fun one especially for the summer holiday weekend and a nice cleanser after the Stranger Things finale. The... Continue Reading →
The Suicide Squad: One Wild RIde
When I first heard the cast list I was like Polka-Dot Man? Ratcatcher? Oh dear. They ended the movie as my two favorites (outside of Harley of course but I'll get to her). I think that might have been the nicest part after a run of mediocre films. It wound up being The Suicide Squad... Continue Reading →

Spying My Way Around Europe
Okay, so The Spy Who Dumped Me is a comedy and Mission Impossible: Fallout an action/drama but they both totally made me want to hop on a plane immediately and go running off to Europe. They also bring up some interesting life questions. Who's your ride or die? Your Morgan or Benji? Would they murder... Continue Reading →
Always Team Dinosaur
I am Team Dino.
