Nutshell: I give X-Men: DoFP a D, for dull, depressing and disappointing. If I want to be bummed out at a movie theater, I’ll buy stale popcorn and go with my ex. A complete waste of Peter Dinkalge and his … Continue reading
Movie Review: Godzilla
Nutshell: I give Godzilla an A-. Much like the old King of Kaiju himself, Godzilla is a fabulous throwback to ancient times, when Toho studios was throwning down awesome monster-on-monster action, kids were never really in harms way, and … Continue reading
