FlixChatter Review – Annabelle: Creation (2017)

Directed By: David F. Sandberg Written By: Gary Dauberman Runtime: 1 hr 49 minutes I've never understood why people find dolls in horror movies scary. They can't bend their limbs, they're usually made of porcelain or plastic or something else not very durable, and they're usually not any taller than your knee. You can just drop-kick …

Directed By: David Leitch Written By: Kurt Johnstad (screenplay) Runtime: 1 hr 55 minutes When I found out I would be reviewing this film, I pulled up an article on it for a little background information-and made the mistake of reading the comments.

Guest Review: The Great Wall (2017)

Directed By: Yimou Zhang Written By: Carlo Bernard, Doug Miro and Tony Gilroy Runtime: 1 hr 43 minutes I’m so happy they cast Matt Damon as the lead in The Great Wall. Middle-aged white men are dangerously underrepresented in Hollywood nowadays, and giving recognition to a criminally underused actor was such a brave, progressive decision by …
