Movie Review: Godzilla vs. Kong

By Jack Silbert on April 14, 2021

3.5 stars out of 5Of the pandemic-era theatrical releases I’ve attended, Godzilla vs. Kong is the first one that really needs to be seen on a big screen. Too bad, then, that it’s not a better movie.

Movie Review: Nobody

By Jack Silbert on March 31, 2021

3 stars out of 5I’m trying to support the open movie theaters. The only problem is, there are no damn movies! So a while back, when I read that Godzilla vs. Kong would be released on March 26, I thought to myself, “There’s something I’d enjoy doing on my second pandemic birthday weekend.” Except it […]
