Movie Review: Avengers — Infinity War
3.5 stars out of 5 Years ago, I heard that phone numbers were seven digits long because the human brain can only handle seven distinct pieces of information at any one time. So how in hell am I supposed to follow what’s going on in Avengers: Infinity War? Sure, as a kid, I loved Marvel […]

Movie Review: Gonjiam — Haunted Asylum

Movie Review: A Quiet Place
4 stars out of 5 I’d seen the trailer, but didn’t really pay attention to this movie until two different friends mentioned that it looked good. On Saturday, the Yankees’ 1:10 pm away game was rained out, my Moviepass card had finally arrived, and A Quiet Place was playing at my local theater. If I […]
Movie Review: Ready Player One
4.5 stars out of 5 I don’t often seek out the 3D versions of movies, but when I read a must-see-it-this-way write-up on that site that always appears when you Google “Should I see [movie] in 3D?”, I made it my mission to don the glasses. And thus found myself in the Edgewater Multiplex’s xPlus […]
