My Review of "The Dead Don't Die"
The Dead Don't Die came quietly to theaters in 2019. I didn't hear anything about this movie before watching it. I just noticed it was a zombie comedy that starred Bill Murray and Adam Driver. It was available for streaming so I thought, how bad could it be? So I took the plunge and ended up a little confused at the end.

My Review of "Ode to Joy"
Ode to Joy is an interesting premise to what I think was supposed to be a romantic comedy. I don't think I could categorize it as such because there wasn't really much comedy. Still it was an interesting concept that puts a twist to the genre.

My Review of "First Man"
First Man wasn't a movie that I thought I'd enjoy. Space exploration movies have done well in the past but I'm always late to check them out. All we know about Neil Armstrong is that he was the first man to walk on the moon. Surprisingly this movie isn't really about space exploration. It's about his journey to get to the moon.

Poseidon - A Movie Review
It’s almost midnight! I hope no tsunamis are going to flip the ship over tonight. Poseidon is a 2006 remake of the popular 70s film, The Poseidon Adventure. The passengers on the cruise Poseidon’s night is flipped over for the new year. Literally. A small group of survivors must make their way through the capsized ship to get to safety before it is too late.

'Survivor: Winners At War' Episode 12
Wow! What an amazing episode of Survivor tonight! First off, nice move Tony! You killed it last time! Your work last week was one of the best episodes I've ever seen. Well done. But now, he's a bigger target. And his allies are pissed. Like, Sarah wants to kill him and Ben wants Jeremy gone so he's mad at Tony for not letting him do that. But hopefully, Tony can turn it around. He's back to old Tony, hopefully it doesn't bite him in the ass. Maybe his spy nest and his telling his allies about his idol plan could work. Especially the spy nest, I love the spy nest LOL. And Kim is targeting him and everyone seems to go for it. So, the current war is Kim vs. Tony and this war is on. Kim's gaining allies to go against King Tony but Tony has his own bag of tricks. It'll be interesting to see who wins this battle of two of Survivor's most dominant winners, Kim Spradlin vs Tony Vlachos.

Tolkien - Film Review
Unless you’ve been living in a hobbit hole for the most part of your life, then the man who gives his name to the Tolkien movie released last year (May 3, 2019) needs no introduction. Tolkien has finally joined the likes of Capote, Plath and Salinger with this dramatization of the truth behind the tales. Certainly, a biopic of the genius behind the world’s most cherished fantasy series was undoubtedly long overdue, but does Karukoski’s dramatization of the events that inspired The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings trilogy do J. R. R. Tolkien any justice?

My Review of "Green Book"
I have heard of Green Book a while back but I never got the chance to watch it partly because it didn't seem to be an interesting movie. Now I fall into good fortune of having more free time to myself so I noticed that the movie was available for streaming. Why not give it a try and see what all the fuss is all about?

My Review of "Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbes and Shaw"
I needed something that I could just shut my brain off and enjoy and I noticed that Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbes and Shaw was available for streaming. This movie has been out for quite a while and honestly I had no desire to watch this movie in the first place. I haven't seen anything by the Fast & Furious since Furious 7. That movie wasn't really a have to see movie for me either. I'm definitely in the minority but Fast and Furious: Tokyo Drift was my favorite of the whole series only because it's the one focused on racing.

My Review of "Watchmen (TV Series)
I've been a fan of the Watchmen since my younger brother had introduced me to the book when I was in my early 20's. Until that time I always thought superhero comics were just about men in tights trying to save the world. This is the first comic that changed my thought of what comics could be. It had a whole slew of dimension to each of the characters.
