  Based upon the acclaimed novel Ridley Scott's latest movie is a real stick in the mud rather than this big, bold post apocalyptic survival movie that is seems to be on paper. Featuring a pretty stellar cast including Jacob Elordi, Margaret Qualley, Josh Brolin, Guy Pearce and more The Dog Stars has a lot going on but for the most part it just feels rather bland and uninteresting. It follows a group of survivors from a global pandemic (2020 vibes) who search for a mysterious radio transmissions origin point. What follows is a fight for survival against scavengers, wild dogs and whatever else may be lurking around.  Performance wise I did like Jacob Elordi's performance here it's a bit one note but for what is was trying to go for it I found it really working. As for everyone else they do a fine job but really the material they're working with isn't exactly astounding in a screenplay that tries to do so much but manages to achieve very little in my opinion. Visually...

  Who doesn't love the Looney Tunes?? I and I'm sure plenty others grew up watching the cartoons from a very young age. They were and are still timeless to this very day. It's now 2026 and after WB canned a potential Coyote vs Acme movie it ended up being saved by a company named Ketchup Entertainment who in association with WB have now finally released the movie. But is it any good?? the answer is a resounding yes! the story of Coyote vs Acme follows exactly that a court battle between Wile E Coyote who after many failed attempts at trying to catch the roadrunner decides to hire a lawyer to help him sue the Acme Corporation due to constant product destruction and injury.  What follows is a hilarious movie laced with physical gags and comedy but really with a real beating heart in moments that helps elevate the movie to really strong heights. It also pretty much flawlessly intertwines live action with the Looney Tunes worlds various extravagant characters and known setpiece...

  I never do tributes or share any sort of words about actors on this blog but this one this feels different. Hayden Panettiere was so much more than an actor to me. Even though I never got to meet her living through and loving her work has been nothing short of an honour. The first time I can remember truly seeing her was Scream 4. Along came this hilarious, stunningly beautiful woman who was so smart so empathetic and empowering it was hard not to instantly become a fan of hers. 15 or so years later and hearing of her own personal battles with various matters was tragic yet there was light at the end of it all and she was in the midst of making a comeback a comeback that has been tragically cut so short. At only 36 years old she is only 6 years older than I am right now which really puts your own life and mortality into perspective. So with all that being said I just wanted to come on here and write in my own way totally off the cuff just a few words in her memory. From Kirby Ree...

  Cosmic events, dinasours and a transported street The End of Oak Street is a fascining movie it truly is. It starts off all swell just like another other regular day in an American suburban neighbor hood. Anne Hathaway and Ewan McGregor play a mother and father to two children. Known as The Platt family they seem like your run of the mill family so when their entire lives are turned upside down they are transported back in time back to the age of the Dinasour how will they manage to handle it?? it's a fight for survival both inside their home and outside as tension is propelled to the max. I really did want to like this movie and while I did at points something just feels off especially why the family get transported back in time it comes out of nowhere and really isn't solved all that well all culminating in a sort of full circle moment, in between there are big and bold action setpieces as the family and any and all survivors instead of banding together to survive all seem ...

  A celebration of youth couldn't be more accurate of what Sunny Dancer represents as it showcases the true power and strength of youth, their friendships and the many highs and lows of life. Sunny Dancer follows a 17 year old named Ivy a cancer survivor whose parents sign her up for a 4 week summer camp deemed as Ivy calls it a ''chemo camp'' upon her arrival she struggles to fit in but as time passes and she begins to make friends she has a summer that she will never forget including love, romance, friendship and everything else in between.  Bella Ramsey is brilliant here as young Ivy a witty, strong willed young woman who comes across as somewhat shy at first but once she opens up at the camp she becomes herself more and more leading to many amazing summer days and nights with her new group of friends who like her are all either cancer survivors or cancer patients themselves. Her performance is effortless in a movie that is absolutely gut wrenchingly beautiful. A...

  The latest chapter of Spiderman in the MCU begins and with it comes a genuinely great movie that manages to juggle so many things really well without losing much quality. Tom Holland is back as Peter Parker / Spiderman and after the events of the previous movie he is all alone in NYC. Bad guys are popping up everywhere and Spiderman is doing Spidey things while Peter Parker gets put on the back burner. The movie opens with a great montage of both classic villains being apprehended and other various small time crimes being stopped by Spiderman. It's a perfect setup to a movie that introduces a ton of things from Sadie Sink's mysterious character to The Punisher playing a pretty chunky role to even a rampaging Hulk Brand New Day has got it all going on and as a whole l it handles everything well and doesn't rely on too many jokes which was very refreshing. After the events of the previous movie No Way Home I do really love how much character development Peter Parker gets he...
