'Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania' Review: MCU's First Fifth Phase Flick Starts With a Quantum Flop

The longest episode of Rick and Morty you’ve ever seen, with little wiggle room for imagination.

'The Invisible Man' Review

Whannell applies just the right amount of realism to his take.

Terminator: Dark Fate Review

Out of all the 2019 movies, I didn’t expect a friggin’ Terminator movie to be the most relevant for our times.

Don't Let Go Review

Rhetorically speaking, how can a movie be so smart yet so stupid at the same time?

Rendy Jones 06/12/2019 Rendy Jones 06/12/2019

Men in Black International Review

Forgive me if I’m wrong, but last I checked, isn’t Men in Black supposed to be a sci-fi comedy?

Godzilla: King of the Monsters Review

Ah shit, here we Go(dzilla) again.

Happy Death Day 2U Review

Jessica Rothe deserves to be a superstar!

Aquaman Review

This is James Wan’s experimental playground and I’m in awe of how DC allowed him to take such creative liberties to give this solo story an identity.

Bumblebee Review

Who knew the previous Transformers title was a future indicator to the man who was going to revitalize the franchise.

The Predator Review: Campy Thrill Ride That Feels Awfully Familiar For Fox

While all of the earlier installments were badass action movies that were violent, “The Predator” is more… campy.

Kin Review

Damn, this movie had so much (well... moderate potential) to be good.

Rendy Jones 08/27/2018 Rendy Jones 08/27/2018

A.X.L. Review

There’s nothing much to say about this Direct-to-DVD film that somehow inadvertently made its way to a theater.

The Meg Review

When your movie has Jason Statham swimming in a Megladon-infested ocean singing, ‘Just Keep Swimming’ as he’s doing it, you know exactly what tone the film strikes:

The Darkest Minds Review

Jesus, Fox didn’t you just finish “The Maze Runner” trilogy in January? There is no need for you to start another franchise.

Hotel Artemis Review

One of the best things about “Hotel Artemis” is the idea of Hotel Artemis.

Rendy Jones 06/04/2018 Rendy Jones 06/04/2018

Upgrade Review

It feels as if Whannell saw both "Robocop" 2014 and “Hardcore Henry”, was hella disappointed by them, and responded with, “Partna let me Upgrade ya.”

Rendy Jones 05/29/2018 Rendy Jones 05/29/2018

How to Talk to Girls At Parties Review

Mitchell stretches out something that was short and got to its point into a feature film that attempts to balance way too many themes but never committing to one.

Rendy Jones 05/27/2018 Rendy Jones 05/27/2018

Solo : A Star Wars Story Review

“Solo” has to be the “Ant Man” of Star Wars movies where the project has way too many cooks in the kitchen during principal photography but, in the end, still manages to be a fun movie.

Rendy Jones 04/13/2018 Rendy Jones 04/13/2018

Rampage Review

That climax might as well have been a WWE match considering the fact that The Rock is there.

Rendy Jones 03/28/2018 Rendy Jones 03/28/2018

Ready Player One Review

It has the “Wakanda effect” where this fictional world has so much imagination and clever ideas flowing like a systematic community that you wish it was real so you could live there (or at least visit)

Pacific Rim: Uprising Review

I CAN SEE CLEARLY NOW THE RAIN HAS GONE!

A Wrinkle in Time Review

With a film whose characters are named Mrs. Which, Mrs. Who, and Mrs. Whatsit, the only character I wanted to be added in this movie was Mrs. Why to explain to me WHY DOES NONE OF THIS STORY MAKE ANY SENSE?!

Rendy Jones 02/24/2018 Rendy Jones 02/24/2018

Annihilation Review

Recently Paramount Pictures has been getting pretty ballsy with their releases.

Rendy Jones 01/22/2018 Rendy Jones 01/22/2018

Maze Runner: The Death Cure Review

The action is almost the equivalent to riding a car with a dude pumped on adrenaline. At first, it's exciting, but at a certain point you scream, “Okay I've had enough. I want to get off this ride now.”

Rendy Jones 12/21/2017 Rendy Jones 12/21/2017

Downsizing Review

For a movie that markets itself as a man’s journey to self-discovery, the film needs a journey to find itself because after the first thirty minutes it has no idea with what it wants to be.

Rendy Jones 11/03/2017 Rendy Jones 11/03/2017

Thor: Ragnarok Review

There is no Kat Dennings as the comic relief for it is the exuberant screenplay filled with authentic humor that hits consistently.

War For the Planet of the Apes Review

Whose ass do I need to kick to give Andy Serkis an Oscar nomination?

Transformers: The Last Knight Review

Though Michael Bay claimed this to be his shortest Transformers movie, this movie feels like an eternity to sit through.
