The Walking Dead: The Complete Ninth Season is a solid enough entry into the series and offers some interesting little twists with the ensemble characters and the departure of one of the original cast in Andrew Lincoln.
John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum isn’t a great entry into the franchise due to a weak storyline and character decision-making not making much sense; the action itself still was highly entertaining and even exhilarating; however I do hope the filmmakers find a better balance with story and action in the next film.
Godzilla: King of the Monsters is a movie I had little expectations for considering, at least from memory, not caring a whole lot for the previous entry, but even then, the film feels every bit of its 2+ hour running time and features paper-thin characters.
The Flash: The Complete Fifth Season was highly entertaining even though I’m not the biggest fan of these “Team” aspects which hurt Arrow, but here, the family dynamic with Barry/Iris/Nora injected some great emotion and the villains were well done.
Hopefully this will satisfy the legendary Francis Ford Coppola. Personally, while I did love Apocalypse Now: Final Cut, and give it an A+ grade, it’s not perfection as the French plantation scene still drags the film down.
Alice, Sweet Alice for some reason has cultivated a following over the 40 years since its release and while atmospherically it was decent, the rest wasn’t all that impressive from the stringed-together plot to some laughable over-the-top performances.
Although one of his lesser and simpler films, John Ford’s Wagon Master is a very well made 1950s western featuring a great setting and some solid performances all around.
The Hustle is actually an appropriate title as this remake is devoid of any originality or even an attempt at it, merely taking every plot point from Dirty Rotten Scoundrels. It was all a lazy cash grab, which most remakes are, but this was far more blatant about it.
Poms is a fine, even at times sweet, little comedy-drama featuring some great performances from its older cast, with Diane Keaton still showing she’s got so much charm.
Killers Anonymous had a fun premise and a great actor in Gary Oldman, but neither aspect resulted in anything very entertaining in a movie which consisted of characters in a mostly singular location talking, culminating with a convoluted twist.
Batman: Hush is a not top-of-the-line entry in the DC Animated Universe line and while the deviation from the source material is understandable, even necessary, what they went with was hardly satisfying.
Chasing the Moon, the latest in the “American Experience” line is a very well made documentary series going through man’s quest to travel to the moon to beyond.
Roxanne is a wonderfully breezy romantic-comedy that one can’t help but smile from beginning to end, mostly because of Steve Martin’s understated but still fulfilling performance alongside a nice supporting cast.
Although at its core I don’t think Avengers Endgame was as strong compared to Infinity War, the emotional aspects however more than made up for it, and the biggest impact was Robert Downey Jr.’s fantastic performance.
Long Shot is a decent enough romantic-comedy that doesn’t exactly break new ground and doesn’t stretch Seth Rogen’s acting abilities while Charlize Theron is as graceful as always.
