Movie Review: SPLIT (Review #2)


When three girls are kidnapped by a man (James McAvoy) with 23 different personalities they have work out which of those personalities will help them escape and which of those personalities will will try to stop them. Casey (Anya Taylor-Joy), a teen with a troubled past, seems to be the only one who might just actually be able to understand and communicate with the madman.

With a premise so wild and fascinating it is hard not to be hooked when you go into the theater. Coming out I can't help but call myself disappointed in a film that has so much potential wasted, thrown away in a structure that can't keep focus of what it's doing.

25 Days of Christmas: ARTHUR CHRISTMAS


Welcome to Day 11 of our 25 DAYS OF CHRISTMAS series, where we will be taking a look at holiday classics each day in the lead up to Christmas. Today, I'll be reviewing the 2011 animated film, ARTHUR CHRISTMAS.

This was my second time watching this film, and I have to say, I enjoyed it much more this time around.  From the story, to the characters, and even the animation style, I had a great time watching this film.  It utilized a nice mixture of classic Christmas tropes and modern technological ideas.

Movie Review: X-MEN: APOCALYPSE


Despite a deep love and affection for the source material, the characters, the filmmakers and the franchise, I could not overcome the bloated film I was presented with, which despite preserving some key elements that constantly make these stories emotionally powerful, can't come together in making any kind of organic film, which messes up one of the most fascinating characters in comic book history.
