Movie Review: The Nun (2018)

The Nun, the fifth film in “The Conjuring” Universe, is a hugely flawed and underwhelming horror film that’s both plodding and formulaic. While the film, Corin Hardy’s sophomore directorial effort following 2015’s “The Hallow,” boasts convincing performances from scream queen Taissa Farmiga (“The Final Girls”) and Demián Bichir (“Alien: Covenant”), it fails to leverage its…

Movie Review: Annabelle: Creation (2017)

Annabelle: Creation begins sometime in the mid-twentieth century where, isolated in a beautiful old farmhouse, dollmaker Samuel Mullins (Anthony LaPaglia, “A Good Marriage”) lives with his wife, Esther (Miranda Otto, “The Homesman”), and his happy, fun-loving daughter Bee (Samara Lee, “Concussion”). As he puts the final touches on a familiar limited edition doll, a folded…

Movie Review: The Innocents (2016)

According to military historian Antony Beevor, “The subject of the Red Army’s mass rapes in Germany and elsewhere in Europe has been so repressed in Russia that even today veterans refuse to acknowledge what really happened.” A Soviet war correspondent has said that, “It was an army of rapists,” that Russian soldiers raped every female…

Movie Review: Philomena (2013)

That snark comes courtesy of recently fired journalist Martin Sixsmith (Steve Coogan, also the script’s co-writer…

Movie Review: The Three Stooges (2012)

I suppose the main question about this update is will the ridiculously violent, but often hilarious, slapstick comedy of Moses and Jerome Horiwitz and Louis Feinberg translate onto the modern screens of 2012. I am of course writing about Moe and Curly Howard and their third wheel, Larry Fine, who became the Three Stooges (after…

Movie Trailer #2: The Three Stooges (2012)

The second trailer for the upcoming yuckfest The Three Stooges starts off with the statement: Before “Jackass,” there was dumbass. How right they are. It’s nothing but belly bopping, ass kicking, face slapping, eye gouging, prat fall lunacy as Larry, Moe and Curly bumble their way into a murder plot back at their childhood home….

Movie Trailer: The Three Stooges (2012)

It looks a whole lot funnier than I thought it would. Yes, there are plenty of films that that statement could pertain to (more so in the other direction, however), but in this particular instance I’m referring to the trailer for 20th Century Fox’s The Three Stooges. To be honest though, it doesn’t look like…
