Le scaphandre et le papillon (2007)
Don't Kiss Me Goodbye
There's just not enough words to say about how great this movie is! It's an amazing true story - with incredibly lasting impact. You'll never forget it. And then on top of the amazing story - is just how well the whole movie is done, from the acting, the settings, the pace - just the whole movie is well made and the soundtrack is the icing on the cake. But most of all - it's an incredible true story - one minute everything is on a roll and the next minute - it's all gone - so thank your lucky stars. You never know what could be right around the corner. And that's about that. Don't kiss me goodbye, baby.
The Fall Guy (2024)
There's Definitely A Lot Here!
It's really pretty good - loads of great action and some terrific sequences - but the plot is a little thin, and sometimes the dialogue just gets too goofy, yet it's still a fun watch. What I will say emphatically - is you need to stick around all the way to the end of the credits!!! There's a fantastic little clip after the credits! Anyhow I enjoyed it - again - it was a little thin - but the action is over the top! So definitely an enjoyable movie. And now I'll just ramble a little to hit my character quota. Remember - stay till the end of the credits! And I think the only major character missing in this was Matthew McConaughey!
Brats (2024)
Really Good and Insightful
This was really good...and it was insightful in examining the broader impact of this time. Never before had kids been so predominantly featured in films. The kid movies of the 80s WERE the movies of the 80s...and that hadn't ever happened before. It was a new and different thing. It was also a great nostalgic look back. It was just a fun documentary and honestly EVERYONE should have participated. If you didn't participate JUDD...you missed the boat! Now what we really need is just ONE MORE GOOD Brat Pack movie - but today, with everyone in their 60's. I assure you...it would be a hit, if it were done well.
Space Shuttle Columbia: The Final Flight (2024)
Really Phenomenal
I was not expecting so much! We've heard a lot about it before - but this definitely covers it very very well - and more than the technical facts, or failures - this show looks through the eyes of the families - and that's where it truly shines! All of their stories are amazing, touching, and significant - but Iain Clark's story is like a movie in itself. Regardless - take the time, watch it all - it's both tragic, heartbreaking, and a bit infuriating. But it's very very good. This was really well done. And again the families are all sooooooo good - but Iain Clark could be a movie! And if anyone ever builds a Time Machine - it'll probably be him.
JFK X: Solving the Crime of the Century (2023)
Probably The Stupidest Documentary Ever Made!
Look - this thing starts off okay. It even lays out some plausible evidence as to those who very much - may want the President and his brother dead - but then it goes WILDLY OFF THE DEEP END!!! It's makes the dumbest claims ever - and doesn't even begin to fill in the massive gaps between its own ridiculous theories!!!' The documentary is nothing short of a wild conspiracy theory in and of itself - and it's probably the dumbest one I've ever heard of in the history of Kennedy conspiracy theories!!! You can't make such incredibly large leaps and not fill in the gaps!!!! Seriously, THE WORST DOCUMENTARY EVER!!!! It's absolutely riddled with holes and it's complete nonsense!!! No one on planet Earth believes this is true in anyway! Honestly, the filmmakers should be ashamed - and completely embarrassed by the mind boggling 100% made up stories they try to present as truths. In the end this is just complete garbage!!!!
Rebel Moon - Part Two: The Scargiver (2024)
Lost What It Started With!
Sadly Part 1 was much better than Part 2. This whole thing started off really good with Part 1 - it built up all these almost super human characters, it laid the groundwork for a huge confrontation - but then - it's kind of like in Part 2 - the whole thing just went flat! All those super heroes disappeared. The conflict and tension just went away!!! Sure there was plenty of shoot em up action - but very little story and again all those string characters just kind of evaporated. Definitely did not have all the strength behind it that made Part 1 so good. Just shoot up everything and get to the end.
Friends in Low Places (2024)
Easy Watch - But Nothing Amazing
I did enjoy this - it was easy to watch - but at the same time - there just wasn't anything simply amazing about it. There's no big revelations, no major drama or conflicts - it's just about doing a big expensive construction project. That's probably something that Garth could have included was the actual price tag - trust me you'd be amazed if you knew how much this really cost!!! One thing though that is clear, is that Garth does know the ends and outs of playing music in clubs and he and Trisha are good sincere people. So it was an entertaining watch - but there just wasn't anything mind blowing to it.
Fallout (2024)
Really Well Done!
Really enjoyed this - it actually starts a little slow - they take a while to let the story develop and to let the characters grow - but about 4 episodes in it really comes together. Thoroughly enjoyed it. And clearly there's more to come. And that's about the jest of it without saying too much. But there are a few plot twists in there - and I'm looking forward to the next season. Only wish this one was a few episodes longer.

Road House (2024)
Not The Same Magic
First - I did enjoy it - and there are some great people in this and behind this - but it just doesn't have the same magic and same feeling as the original. The story although similar has quite a few differences. Unfortunately to me - it's some of those differences that lose the heart of the original. And that's about that. It was still good - but it's not the same. Just doesn't have the depth and feeling, or even development as the original. Felt very surface level. Again I did enjoy it - and there are some great people in this and behind this - but it just doesn't have the same magic and same feeling as the original. It's just sterile feeling - and bland. Nothing gets really developed - and you just can't do Roadhouse without Swayze - Elliot, and Jeff Healey!!!
BlackBerry (2023)
REALLY STINKING GOOD!!!
Seriously - I read the good reviews - and I thought this might be okay - but I was wrong, this was REALLY STINKING GOOD!!! I enjoyed this start to finish! First there's probably some things in this that you never even realized - just the whole technology behind it all and the limitations of the system we all started with - from an engineering and nerd side of things this was good - but at the same time - from a business side of things - this was equally good and fun! Then there's just the whole execution of the movie, the acting, the pacing, the ups and downs - it's just all so well done. SERIOUSLY - one of the best movies I have seen in a while!!! Really stinking good!!!
The Holdovers (2023)
So Very Good - Super Film!!
This is probably, seriously the best picture for 2023. It's just such a simple but heartfelt film with three great performances. It's extremely enjoyable and watchable. Terrific movie! No need to go further - just a great all around heartfelt movie with some terrific performances. And that's about that. Easy to watch - excellent film. It should be Best Picture for 2023.

Damsel (2024)
It Works
It works! It wasn't exactly what I was expecting but still - it works - it's not bad. Kind of fun. And that's about that. No need to elaborate any further - it works, it was fun - and that's x as bout all I was looking for. It works! It wasn't exactly what I was expecting but still - it works - it's not bad.

Spaceman (2024)
Enjoyable - but it's got some holes!
Hmmm - first off - I did enjoy this. It was okay - i did enjoy Adam Sandler - but my biggest issue - was just sooooo many of the things in the basic premise. I honestly think I could accept an alien before I could a Czechoslovakian Rocket?!? What?!? When has Czechoslovakia ever gone to space?!? And Jupiter is a lot farther away than 6 months, and how can everything in the ship break down except for a cellphone from 1985?!? Lol - seriously - there are some big holes here - and I mean like all the way throughout the entire story - BIG HOLES - but I did enjoy it nonetheless - even with a Czechoslovakian Spacecraft!!' Lol.
Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One (2023)
The BEST Mission Impossible Ever!!!
Maybe it was because my expectations weren't overly high - maybe it was because I just now finally sat down to watch this - but DANG - this was good! This was by FAR TYE BEST MISSION IMPOSSIBLE MOVIE TO DATE!!!
The story is a little far fetched - but it's still interesting - and the action sequences are amazing. In my opinion - there are some of the best action sequences ever filmed!!! It really a big, fun, edge of your seat - start to finish roller coaster ride. This is the best Mission Impossible yet - and I will definitely be looking forward to Part 2. Lots of fun - very good - and that's that!
Painkiller: The Tylenol Murders (2023)
Great Subject - but Only So So in the Execution
It's a great subject for a documentary. This was such a tragic, scary, and massively impactful event in history. It changed so many things - and it's a very interesting story. The documentary itself is a little cheesy - but the subject matter is so good, that over powers the weaknesses in its execution. The reporter guy they bring in later in the documentary is completely over dramatic - and he seems fairly fake. But again - the actual news footage and the details of the event are phenomenal. It's a very interesting subject - and it's definitely worth a watch. It's NOT unwatchable - it's okay - but the subject is what really makes this documentary good!
The Greatest Night in Pop (2024)
This Was SO GOOD!
This was sooooo good. Look i remember this well when the song came out - I was a teenager - I remember the video, I remember all the African Famine Relief Efforts, etc. And while honestly, as a kid, I really wasn't blown away by the song - I didn't think it was that great - and all the celebrities talking about famine relief kinda seemed a bit superficial or maybe just futile - but I will tell you this - this documentary about the whole thing WAS GREAT! I have a completely new view on the song, and I have a much deeper respect for all those who worked on it. This is a very entertaining and enjoyable documentary. It is a fantastic "look behind the scenes, and my hat is off to all those involved. It is also truly sad that a large number of the participants are no longer with us. Remember - there comes a time when you can't come home.
Rebel Moon - Part One: A Child of Fire (2023)
Ignore The Negative Reviews!!!
Guys - ignore the negative reviews - this was really quite good - I completely enjoyed it. It does move a little slow - but that's because it offers a good amount of character development - all leading up to the second half. But it's a fun story - and maybe it's not wildly different from other Science Fiction movies along these lines - but it was well done - lots of good stuff here and I'm thoroughly looking forward to the second half! Again - ignore any negatives - it good - no complaints from me. I also liked some of the cross genre of sci-fi and almost gladiator or old west films - it's done well. Again - I enjoyed it!
Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (2023)
That was really pretty good!
This was really pretty good - not bad at all. It had all the elements of a GOOD Indiana Jones movie - and most of all it has heart - it brings some closure to things. It's got lots of action - and in Indiana Jones fashion - a bit of a far fetched story - but that's what it should have. I enjoyed it! I thought it delivered the goods and the best part - was the nostalgia of it and the closure it provides. After saying that - I'm just rambling to hit the minimum required characters. Which really is too long - you can say a movie was good or bad in far less than 600 characters. And with that said - good bye!
The Burial (2023)
The Performances are the Best
It's a good story - and the entire production is entertaining and well done - however, the performances of the principal actors - especially Jamie Foxx - are what really makes this excellent. My only complaint was they could have gone a little deeper into the contract dispute and all the other surrounding issues - but overall it's just a great film. Very entertaining and true nonetheless. After that I'll just add that pickles are made from cucumbers and I'm pretty sure no one knows what Bologna is made from. But again - The Burial is a terrific film and definitely an good watch. And that's about it!
Inside (2023)
Offbeat!
I'm gonna say pretty good based on just how goofy and different it is - it's an okay premise - it's an offbeat sorta thing - but it's still very watchable. As others have said - it's definitely not for everyone - but I enjoyed it in a slow day. It's odd, it's weird - a little slow by it's nature - but not bad. Sincerely not bad. I like something different for a change - definitely not another super hero movie! Lol And therefore I repeat - I'm gonna say pretty good based on just how goofy and different it is - it's an okay premise - it's an offbeat sorta thing - but it's still very watchable.

Corvette Summer (1978)
Fantastic Movie
I snuck into the theater to see this movie in 1978. I actually had no idea what the movie was - or was about - I was just a kid...BUT - I was blown away!!' To this very day - it is one of my all time favorites! WHAT IS NOT TO LOVE HERE?!? Sure, yeah - there's a little cheese to it, sure it's not like a big plot twisting shocker - but it's fun! Mark Hamill and Annie Potts are both fantastic in this - AND THEN THERE'S THE CAR!!! Is the car ridiculously over the top - YES IT IS - and it's supposed to be!!!! It's truly really, really a classic 70s movie - and Give Me The Night - Tonight!!! Sincerely - they should make a sequel!
Big George Foreman (2023)
Great Story
This is a well made movie that tells a great story. I enjoyed it thoroughly! George has had an amazing life. It's a fun watch - I thought it was good from beginning to end. But that's about all I have to add. Definitely enjoyed it though - really good show. Pickles are made from cucumbers. This is a well made movie that tells a great story. I enjoyed it thoroughly!

The Flash (2023)
VERY Very Good!!!
Look - Ezra Milller controversies aside - you'd be hard pressed to make a better Super Hero movie than this. This was very well done. Everything in it - the story, the acting, the effects and especially ALL THE CHARACTERS - all the intertwined generations of action stars...is amazing. This is really very very well done and it's a super enjoyable Super Hero movie. I don't care who you are...this one is definitely one of the best of all times. Ezra does a great job in the movie too...it's sad is off-screen behavior has tainted this so much. But cast that aside and enjoy it for what it is...it's really a great movie!
Chris Fleming: Hell (2023)
Not Really That Good!
It looked like it had a little promise - but sadly - it really wasn't very good. I wanted to like it, but no - it really wasn't that good. Now then I'm going to repeat that - because pickles are made from cucumbers and I need to hit the minimum character setting - while at the same time, I've already said enough - it wasn't that great.

Heart of Stone (2023)
It's Really Pretty Good!
Look - unfortunately, there are a lot of negative reviews for this out there - but seriously - it doesn't deserve all the negativity, it's really NOT bad - I enjoyed it! It's loaded with action, it does have a little twist in there - it's just an action movie, simple. It's also not poorly done - it looks good, the action is great - it's really not bad! Could it have been better? SURE - the story is fairly predictable - the action is predictable - it's a little cheesy - but it definitely doesn't deserve all the negativity it's received. Again - I enjoyed it - it wasn't that bad! Pickles are made from cucumbers.
