Movie Review: “The Chamber” (2018)
The Ben Parker written and directed film, “The Chamber,” is not for anyone with a fear of enclosed spaces. Much of the film’s 87 minute runtime is devoted wholly to a small group of people on board a no-longer-top-of-the-line submarine… Read More ›
Movie Review: “Game Night” (2018)
Movie trailers can be deceiving. To watch a trailer for the new film, “Game Night,” one might think that they were being setup to see a middling comedy, something with a few chuckles no doubt, but also with much potential… Read More ›

Snow days are made for but one thing: movies. That’s it. Well, really, a snowball fight followed by some hot cocoa and a movie. Our ability to sit at home and watch a movie is greater than its ever been… Read More ›
Movie Review: “Peter Rabbit”
The dizzying speed at which Peter Rabbit and the camera move along at the opening of the new film based upon the classic stories by Beatrix Potter makes it abundantly clear that this is not your grandfather’s bunny. The characters… Read More ›
“Lass is More” Gets Spooky with “Winchester”
Not so many a year ago, I lived near the Winchester Mystery House in San Jose. One of the moderate disappointments of my life is never having gotten the opportunity to visit the place despite being in the area for… Read More ›
In Which my Eyes are Dilated and I Watch “I, Tonya”
Yesterday I went to the eye doctor (no, mom, nothing is wrong, just a regular old eye exam and, yes, mom, everything was fine). Naturally, the eye doctor dilated my pupils and thereby made it exceptionally difficult for me to… Read More ›
