Review: Captive State
Captive State. This movie is entirely under the radar, no one is talking about it. That’s usually not a good sign, so I went to the theaters to check it out for myself. The gist. 10 years ago, aliens conquered the … Continue reading
Review: Downsizing
Downsizing. I love interesting science fiction “what if” stories and Downsizing fits the bill. Imagine if one weird scientific breakthrough happened, how would that affect our world? Usually these movies revolve around something more dramatic like time travel or teleportation … Continue reading

Review: Blade Runner 2049
Blade Runner 2049. Here’s where I stood before going into this movie. I haven’t seen the original Blade Runner but I’m a huge fan of director Denis Villeneuve (Arrival, Sicario). I’m thinking that most of you probably haven’t seen the … Continue reading

(Review) Alien: Covenant
Alien: Covenant. The Alien franchise is a tumultuous one. While Alien and Aliens are considered classics, Alien3 and Alien Resurrection are not as positively remembered. And then we have Prometheus, which wasn’t even marketed as part of the franchise but was a sneaky prequel, which brought up more … Continue reading
Review: Life (2017)
Life. This movie had a lot going for it, aside from its horrible name. The fact that I have to keep referencing it as the “new Jake Gyllenhaal and Ryan Reynolds movie” isn’t a good sign. Wasn’t Life a followup to Planet … Continue reading

Review: Ex Machina (2015)
Ex Machina. This movie has been on a lot of folks’ “best of” lists this year and I somehow missed it, so I just recently caught it on bluray and thought I’d pass on my thoughts. The gist. Caleb (Domhnall … Continue reading
Review: Terminator Genisys
Terminator Genisys. The Terminator franchise has a somewhat troubled past, with its last two outings (Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines and Terminator Salvation) being relative flops. It’s also really difficult to make a franchise based on time travel, since … Continue reading
Review: Chappie
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: Jupiter Ascending
Jupiter Ascending. There was a lot of hype about this movie, as it’s directed by the Wachowskis, who directed The Matrix back in 1999. That’s really been their only solid movie though, so expectations were pretty low. And to add … Continue reading
Review: The One I Love
The One I Love. Here’s the thing. This movie is best seen without any context. One of my buddies (shoutout to Narek) just told me to see it. And I went onto Netflix and gave it a shot. If you’re … Continue reading
