FlixChatter Review: Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 (2023) – James Gunn gets melancholic in his farewell to Marvel but hasn’t lost his sense of fun

Can’t believe it was a decade ago that this MCU’s lesser-known IP about a ragtag group of intergalactic misfits was released. Admittedly, I was a bit blasé when it came out and was feeling superhero fatigue (yep, even then!), but the movie ended up winning me over. The novelty quickly wears off by the second …

Guardians of the Galaxy’s Rocket Raccoon (voiced by Bradley Cooper) Appreciation Post

I just saw Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 last week, which is going to be the last of the franchise by James Gunn featuring the same group of actors. It wouldn't be a spoiler to say that Gunn made it a Rocket Raccoon-centric story and I'm glad he did as he's easily my favorite …

FlixChatter Review: Nightmare Alley (2021)

With a name like Nightmare Alley and directed by Guillermo del Toro, those unfamiliar with the source material might assume it's a horror movie. That's what I thought before the trailer rolled around last September, but there is actually no ghost, ghoulish creatures or supernatural elements in this film. That does not mean there is no …

This Just In! Guillermo del Toro’s ‘Nightmare Alley’ Trailer

It's been four years since Guillermo del Toro won a Best Picture Oscar for The Shape of Water, and this is the first feature film he's worked on since. Of course it's not the only film that had to shut down because of the pandemic. Per this Indiewire article, they stopped the shoot when shooting …

FlixChatter Review: A Star Is Born (2018)

Once in a while, a film came along that you couldn’t stop thinking and talking about for days, maybe weeks. I may be one of the last few people in the universe who have never seen any of the three prior adaptation of A Star Is Born. Somehow I managed to avoid reading about the …

Mini Reviews of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2 & Colossal

Hello there folks! It feels like it's been ages since I wrote my last review, but it's actually just a week ago. Well, I saw two Charlie Hunnam films in two weeks… The Lost City of Z and King Arthur: Legend of the Sword. I really enjoyed both, the latter is enjoyable though probably not your thing if you don't like Guy …

FlixChatter Review: American Sniper (2014)

The last time Clint Eastwood tackled a war story he made Flags of Our Fathers and Letters from Iwo Jima back to back. The former I thought was a good film but contained too many clichés, while the latter I thought was one of the best war films ever made. I think his latest picture …
