Little Monsters (2019)

A dark, funny, twisted New Zealand zombie flick with a heart. Sweet, yet with a ton of language, violence, and sexual themes. So not for the kiddos. This adult enjoyed it a lot though. Great ending that even made me tear up.

Murder On The Orient express (2017)

Great visuals and fun characters kept things interesting and fun during the first half. The train slowed to a stop in the third act, eventually pulling into the station with a less than satisfying finish. You do what you can with the source material. Camera work made up for some of it.

21 (2008)

The term "loosely based on the novel" immediately comes to mind. Sometimes that's not a bad thing. Here it spells implausibility. Events feel very amped up in order to deliver a Hollywood type film that contains enough eye-catching scenes to fill a movie trailer. For that reason you will be entertained, but left feeling a bit empty. Not unlike the way you feel when leaving Vegas.

The Internship (2013)

Basic Hollywood recycled drivel. A few funny lines and moments. Revenge of the Nerds meets a 90 minute advertisement for Google.
