Another year is done and behind us, and a new one is ahead. The day this is posted, January 7th of 2016, is this blog’s 2 year anniversary, so it’s time to dive into 2016 by taking a little look back on 2015, what was a great year for movies.

Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015) SPOILER FREE movie review

What a way to end the year, with one of the most beloved franchises of all time coming back for a new generation! And with all the hype and all the excitement and merchandise and everything, does Star Wars: The Force Awakens live up to what we all expected?

Jason and the Argonauts (1963) movie review

Is Percy Jackson too much of a YA movie for you? Disney’s Hercules not accurate enough to the old stories? Well, here’s a film from 1963 that’s an adaptation of one of the most famous of the Ancient Greek tales, the Quest for the Golden Fleece… and it’s well deserving of being called a classic.

The Hunger Games Trilogy and 1/3 (2012-2015) movie series review

I’ll be covering all four of the Hunger Games films in one review, each one of the… ‘quadrilogy’? Would that be the term? Well, since Mockingjay was split into two parts, would that technically make it a trilogy and ⅓?

Spectre (2015) movie review

Did the latest 007 installment keep up the amazingness that Skyfall brought to the series in 2012? Well… no.

The Peanuts Movie (2015) review

There are people who don’t like it when classic characters are brought to the big screen in modern times because they feel like a modern ‘interpretation’ is way too different from the source material. Well, with The Peanuts Movie, it feels exactly like a classic Charlie Brown cartoon, and it is fantastic!

King Kong Lives (1986) movie review

I have one question. A five word question with no real answer: why was this movie made?
