Movie Breakdown: The Matrix Resurrections

Pre-Screening Stance: I’ve yet to be able to figure out what The Matrix Resurrections is even about, so I think it’s best that I head into it with zero expectations. Post-Screening Ramble: The Matrix Resurrections...

Movie Breakdown: The King’s Man

Pre-Screening Stance: I enjoyed Kingsman: The Secret Service, and I thought Kingsman: The Golden Circle was bizarre but alright. Can’t say I’ve been crying out for the addition of a prequel in the series, but...

Movie Breakdown: Spider-Man: No Way Home

Pre-Screening Stance: If you ask me, Marvel’s 2021 has featured a lot more misses than hits. Here’s hoping Spider-Man: No Way Home is actually as good as it looks. Post-Screening Ramble: Surprisingly, the trailers for...

Movie Breakdown: Ghostbusters: Afterlife

Pre-Screening Stance: I like Jason Reitman and I like the cast he’s assembled for Ghostbusters: Afterlife. Then again, I like Paul Feig and I liked the cast he had assembled for his Ghostbusters affair (back...

Movie Breakdown: Belfast

Pre-Screening Stance: I feel like Kenneth Branagh’s Belfast is going to be a winner, but I’m also aware that it’s just impossible to know what to expect from these sort of semi-autobiographical films. Sometimes they’re...
