David Ayer’s Suicide Squad is probably the film I was most dreading reviewing this year.  Trailer after trailer, brilliantly cut with good songs I’ll totally admit,  were released ahead of the Warner Brothers movie. Which continues this modern thing of “let’s show ALL the good stuff in the trailer to get people to see the […]

Eight years is a long time; especially in pop culture, more so in films, and most with franchise films which, by their very nature, tend to become more formulaic in execution as time goes on.

Ghostbusters is the probably the most talked about film of 2016.  Yes, I’d put it above Star Wars: Rogue One and Suicide Squad.  Paul Feig’s reboot of a comedy classic had all the possibilities of not sucking, despite the general outcry of “we don’t need another reboot” which I agree with. I will say this as many […]
