This is one of my favorite Hitchcock films, but not necessarily because of his direction. It's because of the performance of Ray Milland. I can't take my eyes off of him every time I watch it. Grace...

"What have I done?" - Colonel Nicholson This is one of the few movies where I confess a certain level of ambivalence. ​I like it on its merits... the plot is engaging and the actors are excellent...

The word gaslight is used quite frequently these days. It's used so much that I'm actually tired of hearing it, but I digress. So, since I had never seen the film Gaslight before, I had to take the...

I'm not going to give a full review on this movie for many reasons. Primarily, I do not want to dignify it by taking time out of my holiday schedule to savage it. Although in general, I would enjoy...

This is an interesting watch, but it's probably not meant for everyone. There is nothing overtly political in it, but the protagonist is a Mary Sue, so proceed with caution if you are considering...

Dr Strange 2 is more evidence that Marvel used to be a Ferrari and is now a Pinto that just ran out of gas on the highway. Although, I must admit that this is a better movie than I thought it was...

This film is available to watch on HBOMax and since we receive the service as part of our internet package, I figured I would give this one a try. Now, the question I always ask myself is: Am I glad...

I watched the first 3 episodes of Julia on HBO MAX and I must say I am hooked. Sarah Lancashire is incredible as Julia Child and I think she plays her better than Meryl Streep did in Julie/Julia . I...

I have been waiting for a long time for this film to come out and it did not disappoint. The plot zig-zags enough that you aren't sure where it ends, but "spoiler alert" it ends exactly where you...

What can I say about this film? Empirically, I can say it was just average. It is your typical Tom Clancy plot line. ​You know the one: The government is bad and so are you. However, if you like...
