Short Movie Reviews 2016-2020

February 11?, 2016
Underworld: Rise of the Lycans
Not saying much, but the best of the series? Ditches the modern setting, sticks to oooldschool vampires and werewolves.

February 20, 2016
Zoolander 2
It can never be the original, and sometimes tries too hard to recreate it... but there's a lot more of the same style of exaggerated stupidity to love here.

This Is the End
Strange apocalyptic comedy... that kind of works better when it's being less comedic? And less so when doing dick humor.

March 4, 2016
Man of Steel
Illegal alien has it tough. Superman is made to seem more human here, as he is confused about himself and his place in the world; and forced to fight on his opponents' terms.

March 5, 2016
Little Dead Rotting Hood
Dumb werewolves, dumb small town cops and posse, gratuitous nudity... it is an Asylum movie after all. Not good enough or bad enough to be worth watching.

They Live
Very 80s, very paranoid, very John Carpenter. A nobody stumbles onto the world's biggest conspiracy, kind of clumsily tries to take it on.

March 11, 2016
10 Cloverfield Lane
Understandable why they considered it a "relative" to Cloverfield. A very tense watch, though, with fewer big excitements along the way for release. Gotta love Goodman.

March 15, 2016
Predator 2
If you lose Arnie, of course the obvious go-to guy is... Danny Glover? For as much as they Robocop'd LA with superviolence, most of this is kind of dull.
