2023 TV & Movie Reviews: The Last of Us / Creed III / Scream 6 / Poker Face
Boxing, stabbing, bullshit and mushroom zombies. The Last of Us My current roommate and three of my former roommates were huge fans of The Last of Us on PS4, so I didn’t exactly go into HBO’s small screen adaptation ‘cold.’ However, I’ve never actually played the game myself. I don’t love video games because I’m…

3rd Annual Golden Shrimp Awards
Coming at you live from my sweat-soaked bed are the third annual Golden Shrimp Awards, the awards show that exists solely on my blog where I celebrate the best and worst cinematic achievements of the year. My voting body consists only of one body, a sexy body, but I am attempting to diversify. If you’d…

2023 TV & Movie Reviews: Cocaine Bear / Return to Seoul / Pressure Cooker / Skinamarink
Cocky chefs, cocaine bears, Korean orphans and whatever the fuck a Skinamarink is. Cocaine Bear I have to be honest when I say that I wasn’t expecting much from Elizabeth Banks’ Cocaine Bear, a movie I’ve seen so much marketing material for in the past five months that I’ve felt like my head was going…

2023 Movie Reviews: Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania / She Said / Speak No Evil
Bad parents, brave women and small men. Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania I can’t remember the last time I was so indifferent towards a movie. Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania certainly isn’t terrible, but it’s a far cry from the best Marvel offerings, and I think Marvel fatigue is really starting to set in for…

2023 Movie Review: Magic Mike’s Last Dance
A little late for Valentine’s Day, but here ya go. Magic Mike’s Last Dance For the longest time I thoughtlessly dismissed Magic Mike as mindless garbage for horny mothers and a co-worker I had a huge crush on at Walmart. The original was released during my junior year of ASU and while it was smack…

2023 Movie Reviews: Knock at the Cabin / You People / To Leslie / Amityville in Space
Home invasions, space ghosts, alcoholism and meeting the parents. Really stressful movie week. Knock at the Cabin Good or bad, great or terrible, I’m always first in line to see the new M. Night Shyamalan movie, who seems to have finally crawled out of his “possibly the worst filmmaker in America” status he seemed so…

2023 TV & Movie Reviews: Missing / Infinity Pool / All Quiet on the Western Front / From
Kidnapped, cloned, murdered and lost. Missing As far as laptop thrillers go, Missing is cream of the crop I guess. I don’t really know if that’s what to call it, I would say “Zoom Moovie” but this doesn’t take place solely over a video conferencing app. Everything is seen through our young heroine’s laptop screen…

25 Best Film Performances of 2022
Although television thoroughly kicked movies’ collective butt this year, there was no shortage of excellent film performances. From tragic real-life figures to fictionalized stand-ins for real life figures, from violent cannibals to Austrian royalty, from fame-hungry serial killers to financially struggling Asian laundromat owners who get called to do something greater than themselves (there are…

2023 TV & Movie Reviews: Tulsa King / Broker / The Hatchet Wielding Hitchhiker / White Noise
A mobster, baby merchants, a Hitler studies professor and a hatchet-wielding hitchhiker. Tulsa King Boardwalk Empire creator and MVP Sopranos writer (Pine Barrens, Long Term Parking) Terence Winter brings us another mob story, this time with the help of Yellowstone and Hell or High Water creator Taylor Sheridan serving as producer and Sylvester Stallone serving…
