Update, taking a short break

Hey guys, sorry I haven't been posting as much as I should be. I have a ton of different things going on and need to take a break from one of them. Unfortunately, it's going to be the blog. I hate doing this, but I'm taking a couple of weeks off from posting here. If I go to the theater, which I haven't for a time, I might make an occasional post, but don't really expect much this July. I'll try and get posting again in August.
It's been a rough year for me and my family. We've had multiple health scares in the past few months, and it's been a lot to take in.
Like I said, I'm doing some other projects as well right now, and I need the time to complete them. I want to post more on the blog, but I don't have the time to do as much as I'd like. Deeply sorry about this.
Check out some older posts, or if there's any film you'd like me to review at some point, please leave a comment.
I'm not ditching the blog to go on and do other things. I'm taking a break. This is not forever, and I"ll post again. Expect more content to come out around August, unless something happens.
Thank you for understanding, and again, I deeply apologize.

    So sad to read this.
    I would be interested in hearing your thoughts on The [new] Lion King and What's Upon A Time in Hollywood when you're back in action.
    Until then- take care of yourself and I look forward to your return.

Uncharted Movie Review

Uncharted Movie Review Not As Good As The Games I went and saw the movie Uncharted a while ago, and it was as I expected it to be. If you are a fan of the games, well... prepare for disappointment. Uncharted follows Nathan Drake (Tom Holland), a low level thief as he is recruited by Victor Sullivan (Mark Wahlberg) to go on a treasure hunt. As someone who has played some of the games, but not all, I have to say that the Uncharted film is what I thought it would be. A mishmash of all four games but not committing to any of them. The acting is a bit stale, and the plot is predictable. The camera work was fine, but the music was underused. Tom Holland should not have been Nathan Drake. He lacks the charisma, the attitude, and the charm. He may have passed for a teenage Nathan Drake, but he should have only been in a few scenes. I'm not the biggest fan of Tom Holland either long time readers may know. Now, onto Mark Wahlberg as Victor Sullivan. Mark Wahlberg is way too young to be playi

Coda Movie Review

Coda Movie Review This Deserved Best Picture So, I just got back from seeing Coda, and it was amazing! This was the second attempt to see this film as the first time, someone booked the entire theater for a private screening. I'm going to take from a summary from IMDB to summarize the plot: " As a CODA (Child of Deaf Adults) Ruby is the only hearing person in her deaf family. When the family's fishing business is threatened, Ruby finds herself torn between pursuing her passion at Berklee College of Music and her fear of abandoning her parents." The acting was  phenomenal, the  cinematography was beautiful, and the story was human. The way this film is crafted is nothing short but excellent. I will not that not everything is 100% accurate, but for narrative reasons, I understand the choices they made. The actors have amazing chemistry together. Everything feels natural between them and they all bring their characters to life. No performance fell flat. I perhaps would
