Moonlight is a dreamlike and beautiful film that probes into how we betray ourselves for others. To say this film is “about the human condition” or some bullshit like that is an easy out. The movie didn’t take any easy outs, so the least I can do is try to do the same. This film…
I’ve been seeing a lot of posts online recently featuring people lamenting the belief that their Fitbit made them fat. Naturally, I click on them and see if there’s any form of scientific reasoning behind the claims, and what I find is downright hilarious. The vast majority of the people complaining (my university education has…
This review is spoiler free, unlike every other review I'm finding floating around online at the moment. It's true, this film is hard to resist spoiling. The main point the film pivots on is an age old question that you'll be discussing with your mates at dinner afterwards. What would YOU do in this situation.…
Force Awakens was a difficult film to make, we all told ourselves. It’s weighed down by years of Star Wars history. It’s veritably bulging at the seams. Every second scene was a giant wink wink nudge nudge to the fans. Rogue One: A Star Wars Story on the other hand, relegates the winks and nudges to…

Are you a Harry Potter fan but not a fan of Harry Potter himself cause he was a piece of boring white bread in a magical world you wanted to spend your entire life in? Well good because you’re about to get your knickers blown off by CGI and even more wizarding lore. Not even…
The Founder follows the asshole who stole McDonald's from two brothers, and his infamous rise to power. The movie thrives in it's monologue retelling of the initial idea of McDonald's coming together. Nick Offerman (Dick) and John Carroll Lynch (Mac) capture the creative joy of the original founders perfectly. As you're watching them sweetly describe how…
Many are left in ruins after the election. While Hillary stole away the popular vote Trump took the presidency right out from under her. This just goes to show that smiling and waiting for the presidency to fall into your lap because your opponent is a total monster just doesn’t work anymore. To save you…
I had to duck out of reviewing The Accountant but fortunately Matt our resident professional with an opinion graciously still went without me and reported back with what he saw. So you saw Clerks 3 last night? Yeah man. Any good? So fucking good. Haha, in terms of movieness where does it sit on a…
