Rating: ★★★

Aug 28, 2010Killer Fish

The Secret Life of Walter Mitty (2013)

Rating: ★★

Jan 12, 2014Daydreamer's Fantasies

Hot Tub Time Machine 2 (2015)

Rating: ★

Feb 22, 2015Time Travel Comedy

Why we needed a sequel to Hot Tub Time Machine is a big question. Essentially, Back to the Future Part II meets The Hangover, all this does is wind the original's amiable coarseness up by a factor of ten

Krampus (2015)

Rating: ★★

Dec 12, 2015Christmas Horror Film

Director: Michael Dougherty

Madame Web (2024)

Rating: ★

Mar 23, 2024Marvel Comics Superhero

Another of the films spun off from Sony’s hold on the Spider-Man copyright, this has been called the worst Marvel Comics superhero film ever. This also bears next-to-no resemblance to its comic-book counterpart
