Movie Mondays!

The problem with these movies is we’ve now gotten to the point where each successive film in the genre has to top its predecessors. We just go further and further down the road into overblown special effects, movie clichés and formulaic characters and acting. Check your brain at the door there’s nothing more than special effects to watch and even that gets tiresome after the first hour. Also, this is not family entertainment, it’s the kind of thing likely to give a kid a good set of nightmares so under the age of 11 need not apply. SPOILER ALERT! By the end of the movie the little girl no longer needs to wear Huggies - a good thing since the supply after an extinction event is probably pretty low at best.

I’m repurposing content by taking my NetFlix reviews and posting them here on the blog. If I could figure out a way to do it, I’d post some kind of link for people to connect and make me their friend on the service. Unfortunately, it isn’t altogether clear how one would do that - so if you know a way, pass it along. In the meantime, I’ve got steady content for at least a year.
