Cinemavino — Matchups, Pt. 3::rating::0::rating::0::rating::0

Welcome to another fine episode of Cinemavino! Now that The Falcon and the Winter Soldier is in the rearview, we're gonna go back to one of our favorites: For this week's episode, we take random street-level (read: no superpowers) heroes and match them up for an imaginary brawl. Geeky discussion follows. As always, our podcast features dirty-bird words, so…

Mortal Kombat (2021)::rating::2.5

I got bored with this one, just like I used to with the upright version, back at O.J.’s Hamburgers & Arcade. Real Kombat fans may love it, but skeptics should steer clear.

Vanquish (2021)::rating::0.5

Vanquish looks like it was funded with somebody’s allowance money. And if that were the case, if a bunch of plucky ragamuffins actually cobbled their lunch money to make this movie, I’d slap two more stars on this review. Alas, nope.

Wheels (2020)::rating::3.5

You probably think this type of story sounds familiar, and you’d be right. But even though Wheels tramps a well-trodden path, it does so with grace and confidence in each stride.

Picking the 2021 Oscars::rating::0

Although it was a COVID-wracked year, 2020 saw an eclectic, brilliant slate of movies. Sure, we're still waiting on Black Widow and No Time to Die, but many audacious indie films found a nice niche on various streaming services. And unlike many years, this race is wide open. I could honestly see several movies winning…

Nobody (2021)::rating::3.5

This is probably a good time to say it again: The gaudy goriness of Nobody ain’t for everybody. Lots of heads get blown off; bones are snapped like kindling.

Moffie (2019)::rating::3.5

The first two-thirds of Moffie feels like a bucket of cold ice water, and most of the world could use a good dousing. That greatness dissipates into mere goodness, but this is still a film of haunting poetic beauty, and I heartily recommend it.

Another Round (2020)::rating::3.5

Another Round nails how tricky it is to be a social drunk: Think of Butch and Sundance on the edge of a cliff, staring at the jagged rocks below.
