Children of the Corn is by no means a good movie or anything, but the cheesiness – or should I say corny (?) – does make it entertaining even if there isn’t anything particularly scary.

The Law and Jake Wade is a very well made western-crime-thriller with strong performances from its leads, Robert Taylor and Richard Widmark, as directed by veteran John Sturges (Gunfight at the O.K. Corral).

Cross Fire isn’t a great movie featuring some poor performances and a stilted screenplay.

47 Meters isn’t that good of a movie but there were a few tense moments so even with a thin plot and mostly one-dimensional characters, this might be worth a rental especially considering its short running time.

Shameless is the kind of show I can kind lose interest but find my way back every so often, mainly because William H. Macy is so damn good as the reckless loveable loser and the supporting cast all do quite well in their respective roles.

Flatliners is a fun 1990 film that might not be some sort of classic but the entertainment value is there.

Kick-Ass is a fun, hard-knuckled comic book movie that came many years before Deadpool became a hit it did. The highlights, beyond the R-rating language and violence, are the performances from a very young Chloe Grace Moretz, Nicolas Cage and Aaron Johnson.

Full Confession is well acted and the noir-ish like style looks good, but the screenplay writing is a bit much as is the overly dramatic scenes, particularly the “big” finale.

Big Business Girl is a rather ho-hum 1930s-era romantic comedy but is at least watchable if only for Loretta Young’s charms and on-screen charisma.

I’m not the biggest fan of westerns, but The Lion and the Horse was a solid flick starring the charismatic Steve Cochran in the lead role.

Without the weird-ass ending, Armed Response would’ve just been another non-descript, run-of-the-mill direct-to-video action-thriller, one that will only catch your seeing Wesley Snipes on the cover. As it is, this isn’t a good movie from the acting to the screenplay and should be avoided.

This is a great collection of Porky Pig cartoons, 101 in fact, and just an all around excellent set for any fan of the character or animation style.

My Blue Heaven isn’t, in my mind, some comedy classic or anything but still a safe, inoffensive and enjoyable enough thanks in large part to Steve Martin’s larger-than-life performance and on-screen charms.

Unlike the recently released Transformers: The Last Knight, which was a dull movie in itself, Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales was at least passably boring and was mercifully only two hours long. But like Transformers, this franchise just needs to come to a close as neither is very creative or, worse yet, entertaining.

Home for the Holidays is, to me anyway, holiday classic that probably doesn’t get the attention it deserves. While Planes, Trains and Automobiles is in its own right a great Thanksgiving film, this one deserves its place on the holiday as well.
