A Simple Lie - Is It Worth Paying Money to See?
So I just got back home from watching A Simple Lie - the new Biodun Stephen movie starring Bisola and Kiekie. If you want to know if it's worth paying your money for or if you should wait and see it at home, then let me tell you what I personally think.
Jide OkonjoPublished 2 years ago in GeeksAmbulance Movie Review
Michael Bay may be a reliable director for generating profits, but his films have long been lambasted by the masses. His style of bloated action isn’t going anywhere with Ambulance, another limp effort that will exhaust rather than entertain.
Robert CainPublished 2 years ago in GeeksMy Review of "Gran Turismo 7 on the PlayStation 5"
Gran Turismo 7 on the PlayStation 5 is the latest car simulator game by Polyphony released in 2022. I honestly didn't think they'd be able to release it this year because Polyphony had been notorious for not meeting release dates. Now with games being released half finished to be updated later, this became a reality. Fortunately this game didn't ship out half broken.
Brian AnonymousPublished 2 years ago in GeeksMy Review of "American Underdog"
American Underdog is a biographical movie based on the life of Kurt Warner. For those that don't follow the National Football League, Kurt Warner is an American football player that didn't really get to live his dream until later on in his life. I remember his Superbowl win years ago but I didn't know they'd make a whole movie out of it. Then again why not?

Marielle SabbagPublished 2 years ago in GeeksMy Review of "Kill Zone (aka SPL)"
Kill Zone (aka SPL) came out in 2005. I remember watching this movie a long time ago and was mesmerized by the action sequences and the story. More than a decade later I only somewhat remember the action sequences but forgot the story altogether. It was time to revisit this film and see if it holds up to today's standards.

I've been trying to write movie reviews for the better part of a decade. How is it that I never watched Escape From New York?
J.C. TraversePublished 2 years ago in GeeksWandaVision & the MCU
I cut out of the Marvel Cinematic Universe properties after the Spider-Man: Far From Home film. After Far From Home, which everyone save for myself seemed to enjoy, I figured that now that Endgame had been released and most of the character arcs had come full circle, they were simply grasping at straws for storylines, and, in the case of Far From Home, they were not just pandering to fans of the web-slinger, but to fans under twenty who who enjoy the campiness of teen romance with the occasional usage of superpowers. Tom Holland and Zendaya are both extremely talented, but it's hard to tell with films like that.

Whenever she gets too excited she turns into a giant red panda. Trying to figure out how to control it, Mei and her friends try to sneak out to their favorite concert.
Marielle SabbagPublished 2 years ago in GeeksUncharted movie review
The release of the Uncharted movie sees the seemingly inevitable finally happen. Indeed a movie featuring Nathan Drake as the lead character has taken a surprisingly long time to be released. To many people it seemed like an obvious and natural transition to make, given how movie like the games already are in nature. I somewhat question that logic myself, which I'll return to in a while. A movie was first put in development way back in 2008, the year after the release of the first game in the series Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune, in 2007. The development hell it went through from there could make for a tale to tell in itself. Directors, writers and actors came and went. Mark Wahlberg was cast as Nathan Drake from between about 2010 to 2014. Perhaps most symbolic of how long an Uncharted movie has been stuck in development is the irony of Mark Wahlberg ultimately returning to the project to instead play Nate’s older mentor Victor “Sully” Sullivan.
Ian EdwardsPublished 2 years ago in GeeksMy Review of "Black Friday"
Black Friday is a movie you probably never heard of. That's for good reason. It's a really low budget movie that came out in 2021. Despite it's low production value there are a number of highlights to this movie that you probably won't expect.
