[Double Feature] Frozen II

9/11/2020

David: In 2013, the world was shook to its very core but the release of an animated movie that quickly blew apart all kinds of animated financial records. I’m talking about, of course... READ MORE

Shannon: The long waited sequel is finally ours for the taking. The same characters are back in a new adventure full of new songs and new friendships. Elsa is determined to find out where her... READ MORE

[Double Feature] Feast

3/26/2020

David: I watch a lot of horror movies. Maybe not as much as some of my favorite film critics, who I still am amazed in their ability to manage the amount of films they watch and write up... READ MORE

Shannon: This film was one of the movies that was dubbed for our October horror event, but since I had the hectic life of a person getting married, it was one of 2 movies that I just couldn’t get my hands... READ MORE

[Double Feature] Evolution

3/4/2020

David: Sometimes watching movies from the early 2000s can feel like a mostly remembered dream. I watched so many movies that I had purchased from questionable flea market vendors that now... READ MORE

Shannon: I took one look at the cover on this DVD and thought, man I’m going to hate this movie. But in fact, I did not. I thought it was actually funny (not stupid funny like I assumed it would be)... READ MORE

[Review] Jojo Rabbit

2/7/2020

Shannon: Jojo Rabbit is based on the novel "Changing Skies" and follows a young boy who has been brainwashed by the infamous Adolf Hitler. Jojo, played by Roman Griffin Davis, confides in his... Read more

[Review] The Two Popes

2/7/2020

David: Let me preface this – I know religions pretty well, but as a practicing Protestant, I can never feel the same level of knowledge of someone that lives and breathes as part of the Catholic faith... Read more

[Double Feature] Parasite

2/7/2020

David: Bong Joon Ho is no stranger to social commentaries. He’s the director and co-writer of some terrific scripts, from the kaiju film The Host, the speeding train film starring Chris Evans... Read more

Shannon: Knowing that I'm going to have to "read" a movie always ensures that I put it off as long as possible. Even with this one having so many good compliments and reviews - even from my friends... Read more

[Double Feature] Marriage Story

1/29/2020

David: Scarlett Johansson (ScarJo) joined elite company this year when she was nominated both for the Best Performance by a Leading Actress and Best Performance by a Supporting Actress. She... Read more

Shannon: You may be seeing a theme to how the past several movie reviews have started for me... as in I really did not want to watch this film. I'm not the biggest fan of movies that are just... Read more

[Double Feature] Once Upon a Time in Hollywood

1/28/2020

David: Quentin Tarantino has a variety of films, some of which we’ve covered on this site. He is one of the most vocal advocates of the “hang out” film; which is a film where the plot becomes decentralized... Read more

Shannon: I'm not going to lie, I was sort of dreading watching this movie and I don't even know why. With an all star cast, you'd think I'd want to see something like this. Well, I can honestly tell you that my... Read more

[Double Feature] Christopher Robin

7/8/2019

David: Are there any actors out there that so effortlessly portray boyish glee as Ewan McGregor? I’m a big fan of his, for many reasons, this being amongst the foremost. He somehow manages to interact...

Shannon: Oh. My. Goodness. This is literally the cutest, most sweetest movie I have ever seen. It was so cute that I just wanted to cry the whole time. I LOVED IT. Ewan McGregor stars as grown...

[Double Feature] The Spy Who Dumped Me

7/8/2019

David: Kate McKinnon has a very particular brand of funny. Honestly, it’s very hit or miss for me. There are times that she really knocks it out of the park, and she has been doing more voice acting...

Shannon: I’m not usually the biggest fan of movies that star people from Saturday Night Live. Not that I have anything against Saturday Night Live, I just don’t find a lot of their type of comedy funny...

[Review] Detective Pikachu

5/13/2019

Shannon: I remember in elementary school when Pokemon first came out. Just like I am today, I had the mentality not to jump on the bandwagon just because my friends were doing it… alas though, I... Read more

[Double Features] Incredibles 2

5/10/2019

David: I fell head over heels for the first Incredibles movie when I first watched it. It has continued to be one of my favorite movies, and I’ve passed on the love of it to my sons. The sequel was...

Shannon: Yay… another Disney movie to watch and review (no, that wasn’t meant to be read in a sarcastic tone, I’m actually always excited for Disney movies). This time, a sequel. I loved the...

[Double Feature] The House with a Clock in It Walls

4/12/2019

David: As the years go, I appreciate more and more the freedom I had as a young boy. My parents realized that I was “older” than my age, and I was given a lot of reading material that may have been over ...

Shannon: This movie strictly reminds me of Goosebumps. I’m not sure whether it is because Jack Black is the main adult character, or if it was just filmed similarly, but still they are super...

[Double Feature] Crazy Rich Asians

4/5/2019

David: There really aren’t as many traditional romantic comedies anymore. Rom-Coms have slowly decreased in number, mainly in favor of comedies that have a touch of romance in them. But...

Shannon: Crazy Rich Asians is just as you’d expect it to be. A romantic comedy with the typical ups and downs, falling outs, and falling back in love. I can see why this film was spawn...

[Double Feature] The Voices

3/19/2019

David: There is a very select genre of movies that simply make you blink and wonder what you’ve just spent your time watching. Often times, those eventually become cult...

Shannon: I knew this one was going to be strange after reading the synopsis: likable guy pursues his crush with the help of his evil talking pets. Alright, interesting enough...

[Double Feature] Oceans 8

3/11/2019

David: The original Oceans were films crafted to reflect the charisma of George Clooney and others of his gang. But Steven Soderbergh gave life to the films by allowing everything...

Shannon: Back in the day, I watched Oceans 11 or 12 or 13 (not sure which one) and was left utterly confused. The only thing I understood was the fact that they were trying to rob a casino...

[Double Feature] Can You Ever Forgive Me?

2/25/2019

David: For those that remember Melissa McCarthy having diarrhea into a sink in Bridesmaids, many may have thought that a serious role was something that we wouldn’t have seen from her...

Shannon: I had no expectations for this movie. With Melissa McCarthy starring, I assumed that it would be slightly funny, but with the synopsis of the movie I also assumed it would be ...

[Double Feature] Green Book

2/13/2019

David: Let’s just get this out there guys – I’m a straight, white, middle-class male. They don’t get more majority than I do they? So when it comes to writing something like Green Book...

Shannon: When it comes to Oscar nominated movies, it's pretty evident what the critics like to see. Movies that are based on true events, particularly those with hardships from the past...

[Double Feature] The Favourite

2/11/2019

David: Yorgos Lanthimos’s last couple films were a mixed bag for me. We had The Killing of a Sacred Deer, which was pretty much as black as sin. There was also The Lobster, which...

Shannon: When I saw “Yorgos Lanthimos” come across the screen on the opening credits I knew I was in for something strange and fairly unexciting. Ya see, I watched two of his other films...

[Double Feature] Vice

2/1/2019

David: In the past couple years, we’ve watched a LOT of movies. One of my favorites I got to write for the site was for The Big Short. It was a movie I probably wouldn’t have watched...

Shannon: When I heard they were making a biopic about Dick Cheney I thought, alright. When I heard that it was from the same writers as The Big Short, I thought awesome...
