97 Minutes (2023)

Keep an open mind, this movie was fun!! 1 star reviews unwarranted!

[10/10 · 22 November 2023]

I'm not sure why all the one stars. The film was fun and kept you on the edge of your seat. Too many people put on their "it's not realistic enough" goggles and chalk it up as not good. This is definitely not the case. I think it was actually really good considering it was a b movie. Not a 10 but an easy 7.5. (Have a 10 to offset one star reviews) There are twists, turns, a pretty good storyline and plenty of excitement, action, etc. I was also impressed with the cgi mixed with the real airplane shots. It did not feel cheesy to my wife and I. Keep an open mind while watching this flick. I think you will be pleasantly surprised with how much fun it is and you too may actually enjoy it.

9-1-1: Lone Star (2020– )

Give it a chance!

[9/10 · 28 January 2023]

I really like this show. It felt a bit off at first due to the possibly forced "inclusiveness" aspect. Like it was just for the sake of being woke? But I quickly became a fan and completely changed my mind on that. All the characters I have become emotionally invested in. All good people! Doing what good people in that line of work would do!

The calls to action can be a bit outlandish but you'd be surprised how many times these things really can happen in real life.

Has the right amount of drama and action. All peppered in with humor to make light of dark times.

Give this show a chance! I was a complete hater starting out. But I now look forward to me and my wife catching up on the next episode!

Slumberland (2022)

It was great!

[10/10 · 21 November 2022]

I don't get the bad reviews and honestly thought this would get at least an 8/10 for over all rating. But that being said you can't make everyone happy. My wife and I loved the story and think we loved it more than our kids lol. It was a roller coaster of emotions. Had tears at times, laughter at others, pure joy, thrilling worrisome excitement, etc. I would recommend this movie more to kids between the ages of 7-14. Our youngest who was 5 just didn't get it. But that's ok. I think this is a classic that I undoubtedly will watch again with my youngest when she is older. Fun movie overall with all the right components to make it memorable.

Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021)

It was fun

[6/10 · 20 February 2022]

If I was ten years younger I probably would have ranked higher but I think marvel is doing too much with these movies. Was cool to see Tony McGuire in it since I grew up on that spider man. All in all was fun and some cool action scenes but I wouldn't watch again. It is worth seeing once though.

Sing 2 (2021)

Better then the first

[9/10 · 13 January 2022]

In my opinion this one was a better then the first... I think they made this one a bit more enjoyable for the adult audience but still great for the kids.

An American Werewolf in London (1981)

Good old flick but the ending is meh

[5/10 · 24 December 2021]

All in all it was a fun old school movie. The nostalgia is awesome and makes me appreciative to a simpler time. The ending kind of ruined it for me though. Very climactic and then just ends abruptly leaving you asking questions that will never get the answers. Could have been more full circle I thought. Still worth a watch at least once though!

The Ice Road (2021)

Don't listen to bad reviews

[10/10 · 29 June 2021]

It's good. Especially if your in this field of work. Of course it will be dramatized and unrealistic at times but take it for what it is... a movie. And a good one I think.

Army of the Dead (2021)

Dope!

[10/10 · 22 May 2021]

I'm not even all the way finished with this but had to chime in from all these bad reviews... like it so far because the characters you can connect with. Plus little funny dialogue between them adds to it. This movie is good. Take it for what it is but in my opinion this is a refreshing new zombie take! Like this one a lot!

Raya and the Last Dragon (2021)

People are being too critical..

[9/10 · 14 March 2021]

People should stop looking so deep into this family movie. This movie is all around a good movie to watch with your family. My wife and our toddlers enjoyed it very much... I recommend the watch if you have a family and your looking for something new! Also has a very good message of people who don't agree can come to a common ground!!!

Below (2002)

Good movie

[7/10 · 11 March 2021]

Was funny to Zack galifinakis in this... good ole thriller flick from the 00s

Willy's Wonderland (2021)

A Devine masterpiece

[10/10 · 28 February 2021]

That is all.. it is great. Best movie I have ever seen. Nick cage is unstoppable. Gone in 60 seconds eat your heart out

Bigfoot Family (2020)

Good family fun, don't like the how oil portrayed 100% falsely and incorrect

[6/10 · 27 February 2021]

Good family movie and enjoy it for most part... the way they portray oil industry is a down right joke... Black smoke from flare stacks, oil spewing out of the ground... that's just not how it goes. Especially in America where strict epa rules that have to be followed.

I know it's a kids movie but I feel it's a bit ironic and people are pushing there "green" agenda behind this movie.

Surf Ninjas (1993)

This is a classic!

[10/10 · 15 February 2021]

I don't understand the bad reviews this is the best movie around for 6 to 12 year olds... this was my jam back in the day... love this movie. And if your kids are that age demographic bet the love this movie too

Black Bear (I) (2020)

Never trust the matoe meter

[1/10 · 21 January 2021]

I question rotten tomatoes more and more after watching this pile of confusing trash

Spark: A Space Tail (2016)

Kids movie

[10/10 · 21 January 2021]

Some people are far too critical for these movies created for children... I thought it was decent and the kids enjoyed it. That's all that matters.

Don't Tell a Soul (2020)

Worth a watch

[8/10 · 20 January 2021]

Brothers that are at each others throats. Stockholm syndrome. Twisted yet satisfying ending.

Hunter Hunter (2020)

Meh

[5/10 · 8 January 2021]

Decent story line... seemed ok at first but all the characters lack of common sense is beyond frustrating. Worth a watch but not great

The Croods: A New Age (2020)

Better then the first

[9/10 · 2 January 2021]

Great movie for the kids and enjoyable for me and the wife as well... Just wish it didn't cost 20 bucks each time to rent for 48 hrs. With how kids are they want to over watch the heck out of a movie they really like. So beware parents. I've already rented twice lol

Jexi (2019)

Was a decent little romcom with a twist

[8/10 · 3 December 2020]

Don't understand the bad reviews... funny little movie for you and your significant other in your life.

Unhinged (I) (2020)

Started out good

[1/10 · 2 December 2020]

Turned into such an unbelievable story. I don't understand the 10 out of 10s

Hard Kill (2020)

Hard no

[3/10 · 1 December 2020]

Hard pass on hard kill some corny unbelievable terrible acting

No Escape (I) (2015)

Dad of two daughters

[8/10 · 27 November 2020]

This movie hits hard being a dad of two daughters... good flick

Son of Bigfoot (2017)

Good family movie

[8/10 · 17 October 2020]

I enjoyed along with the kids. Disappointed that the sequel isn't available in U.S.!

Hocus Pocus (1993)

You haters were probably born after 93

[10/10 · 6 October 2020]

This is hands down a classic Halloween movie! These kids don't get it

Ratched (2020)

It's amazing

[10/10 · 27 September 2020]

People who give this show less then a 7 are just too critical. It's a god damn masterpiece. Must watch!
