This brief was written by Summer Intern Michael Harris. A romance action film including insane stunts and a silly sense of humor. The movie gives off Fast and Furious vibes, in a good way. It is a genre mashup: drama, romance, comedy, action. The romance between Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt hits the mark. The action stunts are really well done. The plot is not the best, but entertains nonetheless and kept me hooked. Not bad at all
Another Angel Studio uplifting, based on a true story, movie. A Chinese immigrant doctor works to restore the sight of a young parentless child. These movies are very popular and well regarded by all who attend.
During the Covid quarantines, streaming became a way of passing the time. One of my time consuming choices was watching all the Planet of the Apes movies. The original Planet of the Apes film starring Charlton Heston is classic. I saw it when it came out in the Sixties. We all walked out of the theater in a state of awe. Movies were wonderful back then. They did not require two hours and twenty five minutes to tell their stories. But I will endure the extended time watching this one because I have been looking forward to this latest installment for years. I guarantee it will be good, though likely too long.
There seems to be very little downside to low budget horror films. Blood everywhere. Screaming young girls cowering as disgusting fatalities are about to take place. And I know this just from the awful previews. I did like Late Night With the Devil. Very original. And Sting which no one went to see and disappeared after one week about an alien spider in a tenement apartment building. I did like that one while covering my eyes several times.
Amazingly the young grandkids go for these Legendary Pictures Monsterverse battles of the titans. There is even an Apple TV series first season called Monarch that intelligently brings these same monsters to streaming TV. But I continue to recommend the recent Japanese Academy Award winner for Best Visual Effects with a genuine backstory that equals the battles between post war Japan and the great Godzilla.
Directed and starring Michael Keaton in a small time action picture, this movie is right up my alley. Al Pacino, Marsha Gay Harden, and their ilk capture their small roled quite efficiently, and this little film is definitely a must see for those who like old-fashioned hired killer movies.
Yes. I am taking the grandkids. The previews remind me of Kung Fu Pandas 1, 2, and 3. I guess that will be good enough for them as long as I break out the big bucks for concessions. If you happen to catch Jack Black promoting his voice role, I warn you his scrubby bearded face and growing belly are a surprise.
Wrong! This is a terrific, subtitled flick; a great movie with incredible sound design and award worthy effects, with excellent screenwriting, and an unbelievable final battle that dissolves into an unexpected denouement. The premium XD theater presentation for this one is worth every extra penny.

The moving images of a film are created by photographing actual scenes with a motion-picture camera, by photographing drawings or miniature models using traditional animation techniques, by means of CGI and computer animation, or by a combination of some or all of these techniques, and other visual effects.
Before the introduction of digital production, a series of still images were recorded on a strip of chemically sensitized celluloid (photographic film stock), usually at a rate of 24 frames per second. The images are transmitted through a movie projector at the same rate as they were recorded, with a Geneva drive ensuring that each frame remains still during its short projection time. A rotating shutter causes stroboscopic intervals of darkness, but the viewer does not notice the interruptions due to flicker fusion. The apparent motion on the screen is the result of the fact that the visual sense cannot discern the individual images at high speeds, so the impressions of the images blend with the dark intervals and are thus linked together to produce the illusion of one moving image. An analogous optical soundtrack (a graphic recording of the spoken words, music and other sounds) runs along a portion of the film exclusively reserved for it, and was not projected.
