crime… Movie #130 2021: Why Did You Kill Me? (2021) 17 May 202113 May 2021 Watched this on a whim, wish I watched an actual film instead. Go figure. Yes, I got sucked in by the Netflix true crime schtick that the streaming giant seems…
crime… Movie #129 2021: The Drop (2014) 16 May 202111 May 2021 Oh, James Gandolfini. Words cannot express how much I love you. Simply put, he left the world way too soon, and I just wish there were more post-Sopranos movies with…
crime… Movie #116 2021: Assassins (2020) 3 May 202124 Apr 2021 Good. God. I can’t recall the last time I was so shocked by a documentary. This is a story that you have to see to really believe. And even then,…
Action… Movie #110 2021: In the Line of Fire (1993) 27 Apr 202115 Apr 2021 I’m not gonna lie to you here: I completely forgot I’d even watched In the Line of Fire. Safe to say, it’s not exactly the most memorable movie despite there…

crime… Movie #70 2021: Primal Fear (1996) 18 Mar 202126 Feb 2021 Primal Fear. What an utterly basic, bland title for a film. In all honesty, it doesn’t even relate to anything that goes on within this movie either. What I’m asking…
Awards Season… Movie #68 2021: The Little Things (2021) 16 Mar 202126 Feb 2021 Can you tell that I’m trying to wade through this year’s Golden Globe nominations? Awards ceremonies are generally ridiculous every year anyway, so there’s bound to be a few duds…
crime… Movie #31 2021: The Bone Collector (1999) 6 Feb 202128 Jan 2021 Yes, I unintentionally watched two Angelina Jolie movies in quick succession. Is that a bad thing? Not at all! The Bone Collector is actually not too dissimilar to Taking Lives…
crime… Movie #29 2021: Taking Lives (2004) 4 Feb 202127 Jan 2021 Academy Award winner Angelina Jolie. A murder mystery. Sounds great, right? Taking Lives is the 2004 effort from director D.J. Caruso (Disturbia, I Am Number Four), and is basically your…
Action… Movie #23 2021: Minority Report (2002) 29 Jan 202122 Jan 2021 When it comes down to it, I’ve not actually seen that many Spielberg films. Of course, I’ve seen the usual suspects (E.T., Jurassic Park, Schindler’s List), but very few of…
