Movie Breakdown: A Quiet Place Part II

Pre-Screening Stance: While I remain baffled that the sequel to A Quiet Place wasn’t titled A Quieter Place, I am excited to see it. Writer/director John Krasinski did a really solid job with the first...

Movie Breakdown: Army Of The Dead

Pre-Screening Stance: Army Of The Dead looks like a pretty good time. On another note, the messy situation with Zack Snyder’s Justice League was an entirely weird, fairly exhausting thing, and while I did end...

Movie Breakdown: The Woman In The Window

Pre-Screening Stance: Joe Wright (Hanna, Atonement, Darkest Hour and lots more.) is a good director, and Amy Adams is fantastic actress. However, The Woman In The Window has been on the proverbial shelf for quite...

Movie Breakdown: Spiral: From The Book Of Saw

Pre-Screening Stance: I’ve never actually seen any of the Saw films, and I would likely skip right over Spiral if it wasn’t largely driven by Chris Rock. I don’t know why he suddenly decided he...

Movie Breakdown: Riders Of Justice (Noah)

Movie Breakdown: Riders Of Justice

Pre-Screening Stance: I made it roughly 10 seconds into the trailer for Riders Of Justice before I declared that I had to see it. Post-Screening Ramble: I went into Riders Of Justice fully expecting an...

Movie Breakdown: Profile

Pre-Screening Stance: Profile looks like the sort of film that was definitely filmed during the pandemic, but it was actually shot back in 2018. How weird. Anyhow, I thought the trailer for the movie was...

Movie Breakdown: Oxygen

Pre-Screening Stance: Director Alexandre Aja’s last film, 2019’s Crawl, was pretty dang fun. Oxygen looks like much less of a hoot, but I’ve got faith in him to pull off what appears to be a...

Movie Breakdown: Monster

Pre-Screening Stance: Monster looks like it’s going to be a real soul crusher, so I guess I’ll pour myself a big whiskey before hitting play on the screener. On another note, it’s a little wild...

Movie Breakdown: Wrath Of Man (Noah)

Pre-Screening Stance: This stage of Guy Ritchie’s career is absolutely baffling. Sure, he’s still cranking out choppily slashed crime flicks in his sleep but also clearly stretching his arms a bit with stuff like King...
