Bohemian Rhapsody Movie Review

Rami Malek is transcendent as Freddie Mercury and he does a great job of carrying the film on his slender shoulders. He is in almost every scene and if he felt any pressure, his performance doesn’t show it. He is so natural in the spot light and the camera loves him.   //   The dramatic structure of the film is so well thought out that even with the warts and all retelling of Mercury’s life’s story, it feels more accomplishment than tragedy. You feel the loneness ...

Ghost Stories Movie Review

Professor Goodman (Andy Nyman) is the host of a reality television show, Psychic Cheats, that debunks tales of paranormal events. He is summoned to meet Charles Cameron (Leonard Byrne), a psychologist and fellow debunker that has gone missing. At this meeting he is given three cases to study and so it all begins.   //   These three events are somewhat conventional stories about things that go bump in the night. In their telling, there is an undercurrent of both creepin...

A Star is Born Movie Review

The tragedy that underlines the film is not just one of substance abuse but the sadness of loosing the connection to ones art through the effects of tinnitus. The film drives this point home with audio effects of both extreme on-stage volume and that soul destroying constant tone that sufferers become afflicted with. It leads many to do horrible things to stop the suffering.   //   The charm of watching Jack (Cooper) and Ally (Gaga) create music together at the film’s ...

First Man Movie Review

It’s even more impressive with the main focus on a subject as emotionally self-contained as astronaut Neil Armstrong. Actor Ryan Gosling is very accomplished at saying much with just his eyes and that talent is put to full use here. Armstrong’s stoic nature was a partial product of the tragedy of losing a daughter to cancer at the age of two.   //   These astronauts were surrounded by death and attempting to accomplish something that was never done before in human ...

Easy enough, but, unbeknownst to Earl, he’s just signed on as a drug courier for a Mexican cartel. He does well—so well, in fact, that his cargo increases exponentially, and Earl is assigned a handler. But he isn’t the only one keeping tabs on Earl; the mysterious new drug mule has also hit the radar of hard-charging DEA ...
