RETRO REVIEW – BIG TROUBLE IN LITTLE CHINA

A John Carpenter movie from 1986 starring Kurt Russell didn’t do very well at the box office, oddly enough. It has since become somewhat of a cult classic, but why has it taken so long to catch on? There might be some answers in Steve’s column this week. Read it and see.

MOVIE REVIEW – READY OR NOT 2 – Here I Come (some minor spoilers)

The sequel to 2019’s “Ready or Not,” while keeping up the bloody body count of the first movie, seems a bit flat to me. While it attempts to match the dark humour of its predecessor, I found it lacking in that respect. It not only has the same strong female protagonist, but it even doubles down by adding a sister to the mix. You may like it a bit better than I did, though I thought it somewhat enjoyable.

REVIEW – WAR MACHINE (POPCORN)

The recent Netflix movie War Machine is an action/science fiction movie, full of the usual stuff action movies are full of. I call it a “popcorn” movie, because it’s the kind of movie you sit down with a  drink (soft or otherwise) and a bowl/container of popcorn to watch. Nothing intellectual or deep, but a lot of fun.

MOVIE REVIEW – PROJECT HAIL MARY

Ryan Gosling’s new movie, based on Andy Weir’s “Project Hail Mary,” is well done. Except for brief flashbacks, he’s the only actor present in the whole 2 1/2 movie, and he carries it off well. This should be as big or bigger than his previous Weir movie, “The Martian.”

MOVIE REVIEW – OPERATION TACO GARY’S

This would be a great movie to review if I could just figure out how to review this film. It’s not an easy movie to describe—or possibly even to watch—and I think you have to be a little bit odd to enjoy it. What does it say about me that I really enjoyed it? Read the review then see it for yourself

RETRO REVIEW – DIE, MONSTER, DIE! (1965)

In 1965, a non-Hammer movie, made and set in England, starring Boris Karloff and Nick Adams, came out called “Die, Monster, Die!” Suprisingly enough, it’s a science fiction movie, not a horror/monster movie. Loosely based on H.P. Lovecraft’s “The Colour Out of Space,” it’s a different retelling of a classic story. Did I like it? Well, yes and no. Read and find out why.

RETRO MOVIE REVIEW – TIMECOP (1994)

In 1994, Peter Hyams, who had been known for directing genre films Outland (1981) and 2010, The Year We Make Contact, made an SF action-adventure film called Timecop, starring “The Muscles from Brussels,” action star Jean-Claude Van Damme. Not surprisingly, it was a pretty good movie with excellent special effects for the time (including some early CGI) and some not terribly deep subtext. Did you see it? Did you like it? Read what Steve thinks.
