Underwater (2020)

What’s worse, being stranded in space or Underwater? The argument can be made that at least space is visible. On a scientific expedition many leagues under the sea, a rig gets hit hard with an anomaly, making the ship unusable and unsafe for living. Evacuation is an obvious must, though all routes to escape are […]

Gemini Man (2019)

If you can’t stand the sight of what stares back at you in the mirror, then it’s time to assess why. After decades of serving his country, Henry Brogan (Will Smith) has had enough. He’s regarded as the United States’ best government assassin, protecting her interests and national security. But even the most cold-blooded assassins […]

Ad Astra

If the answers we seek may just be outside our reach, what does that imply about the questions? Following in the footsteps of his father, legendary astronaut Doctor H. Clifford McBride’s (Tommy Lee Jones), Major Roy McBride (Brad Pitt) has carved quite the resume himself, repeatedly proving to be the coolest customer in the hottest […]

Auggie

Most people want to retire, but only if it’s on their own terms.

At his retirement party, he doesn’t receive a […]

Spider-Man: Far From Home

Eurotrips are supposed to be fun, not stressful. You can’t blame Peter Parker (Tom Holland) for wanting to put a pause on being Spider-Man and just be a teenager for a little bit. He and other emerged from The Decimation (known in some corners of the world as “The Blip”) to come back to their […]

Avengers: Endgame

Reader’s note (as if you care at this point): No explicit spoilers, though an aspect or two may be implied. But really, over two billion box office worldwide as of this writing indicates you’ve probably already seen. It’s that time of the game, where the sacrifice play might have to be made; lay down on […]

Dark Phoenix

Traveling back in time can’t prevent this threat from existing. In this new present for the X-Men, they are not only accepted by humans, but loved for their mutant abilities. Professor Charles Xavier (James McAvoy) is in charge of putting his team in increasingly more difficult scenarios. One puts them in space, seeing Mystique (Jennifer […]

Brightburn

With great power comes great responsibility…to kill people. Ten years ago, Tori (Elizabeth Banks) and Kyle Breyer (David Denman) were witnesses to a meteor crash right outside of their home farm in small town Brightburn, Kansas. The crash carried a pod, and inside that pod was a small infant, all alone in the cold, cold […]

Captain Marvel

Fall seven times, stand up eight. In a galaxy far, far away exists a planet known as Hala. Hala is made up of Kree, a race of noble warriors who fight against those who are not nobel, such as the shape-shifting Skrulls, who are attempting to take the Kree’s planet by force. One of those […]

Captive State

The resistance will not be televised. 10 years ago, aliens came to Terra Firma with the idea in mind of improving our planet, and in turn, we’d give them many of our resources. And to an extent, they did, lowering crime rates, instituting a stable world structure, and one-party politics. However, not all is well, […]
