Review: Missing Link

Posted on April 13, 2019 by adamryen

Missing Link. Before I go into this review, I want to gush for a second over the film Kubo and the Two Strings, which snagged my #1 Film of 2016 distinction (so, obviously I was a fan). Laika, the company that … Continue reading →

Review: The Front Runner

Posted on November 26, 2018 by adamryen

The Front Runner. You’ve probably never heard of this movie. No one seems to know what this is. So here’s the deets. The gist. This “based on a true story” film follows Colorado Senator Gary Hart (Hugh Jackman) who finds … Continue reading →

Review: The Greatest Showman

Posted on December 25, 2017 by adamryen

The Greatest Showman. I’m a sucker for musicals, let me just put that out there first. So this whole review is coming from someone that doesn’t mind spontaneous singing and choreographed routines. I don’t mind metaphorical locations and drastic leaps … Continue reading →

Review: Logan

Posted on March 3, 2017 by adamryen

Logan. Hugh Jackman has been playing the character of Wolverine for 17 years, appearing in some form in every X-Men movie ever made (sometimes a cameo or even a picture, in the case of Deadpool). This is supposedly Hugh Jackman’s … Continue reading →

Review: Eddie the Eagle

Posted on February 29, 2016 by adamryen

Eddie the Eagle. I first saw Taron Egerton in Kingsman: The Secret Service last Spring and I had this assumption that he’d become an action star of the future but I didn’t get the feeling that he’d have substantial acting … Continue reading →

Review: Pan (2015)

Posted on October 18, 2015 by adamryen

Pan. I think the Peter Pan franchise might be one of the most often remade. Hook, Peter Pan, Pan, several Tinkerbell animated movies… We’ve seen sequels, remakes, and spinoffs. So it only made sense that we eventually get a live … Continue reading →

Review: Chappie

Posted on March 7, 2015 by adamryen

Chappie. This is the third film from Neill Blomkamp, who directed District 9 and Elysium. I enjoyed both of these movies a lot, so this third movie had a lot of momentum for me. But each movie has focused on … Continue reading →

(Review) X-Men: Days of Future Past

Posted on May 23, 2014 by adamryen

X-Men: Days of Future Past. I went into this film a little hesitant. I’ve written articles about how X-Men: The Last Stand and X-Men: First Class were both disappointing but The Wolverine managed to win back a bit of that … Continue reading →

Review: The Wolverine

Posted on July 27, 2013 by adamryen

The Wolverine. This is the sixth time that Hugh Jackman has donned the claws, over the course of nearly 15 years. Are there still stories about Wolverine that resonate with audiences? When I heard they were traveling to Japan for … Continue reading →
