#85 Film in 2016: Assassin’s Creed

6/10 I never played the video games on which this film is based so video gamers may have a different take on this film than me. However, this should be aimed at the video gamers and non-video gamers alike. I loved the cast (even though they’ve had much stronger material to work with in other … Continue reading #85 Film in 2016: Assassin’s Creed

#84 Film in 2016: La La Land

10/10 Where do I begin? So last year I thought "Sicario" was the best film of the year but my favorite film was "Mad Max: Fury Road". This year the best film was "Manchester by the Sea" but this is easily my favorite film and an extremely close second for best film of the year. … Continue reading #84 Film in 2016: La La Land

#83 Film in 2016: Rogue One: A Star Wars Story

6.5/10 So I have pretty mixed feelings on this film. First off, this is a better film than The Force Awakens due to a much stronger storyline and less plot holes. However, The Force Awakens is a more fun, enjoyable film with better characters. So although this is a higher quality film, I would much … Continue reading #83 Film in 2016: Rogue One: A Star Wars Story

#82 Film in 2016: Manchester by the Sea

10/10 I thought when I started these official movie reviews back in January that a perfect 10 would mean just that…that the film was PERFECT. But then I have realized over this year that there is no such thing as a perfect film. Even the best films or ones I love most are not perfect. … Continue reading #82 Film in 2016: Manchester by the Sea

#81 Film in 2016: The Handmaiden

9/10 How this film isn’t going to get nominated for Best Foreign Film is just beyond me. It is extremely rare that I walk into a theater not knowing a single thing about a movie. This was the case with The Handmaiden. I hadn’t seen a trailer, didn’t know what it was about, etc. All … Continue reading #81 Film in 2016: The Handmaiden

#80 Film in 2016: Nocturnal Animals

7.5/10 I give this film credit for having the most disturbing opening scene of all time. It is literally morbidly obese full nude women dancing…and you see ALL of them. Thankfully, things can only go up from there. I liked a lot about this film. The acting was phenomenal across the board (Michael Shannon continues … Continue reading #80 Film in 2016: Nocturnal Animals

#79 Film in 2016: Moana

5/10 What a let down from Disney. I guess after so many solid films ("Tangled", "Wreck It Ralph", "Frozen", "Zootopia") they were due for a misfire. And it isn’t even that this film is bad. It isn’t. It is just totally mediocre and average, which is disappointing because I had heard such good things and … Continue reading #79 Film in 2016: Moana

#78 Film in 2016: Trolls

3.5/10 Yikes. You know how there are animated movies that are fun for kids AND adults ("Zootopia") and animated movies that are fun for the kids but pretty miserable for their parents? This film is the latter. Kids will enjoy the music and how colorful the film is and eat it up. As for us … Continue reading #78 Film in 2016: Trolls

#77 Film 2016: Bad Santa 2

8/10 As I have stated before, the biggest factor I take into account when reviewing a comedy is how funny it is. Story is important but I will take a hilarious movie with an average story over a movie that has an amazing story but for a comedy is not funny at all. This film … Continue reading #77 Film 2016: Bad Santa 2

#76 Film in 2016: Allied

7.5/10 It is too bad that this film didn’t do better at the box office because it is actually pretty good. The technical aspects like the costumes, production design, hair and makeup, cinematography, etc. were all top notch quality. Brad Pitt does a good enough job but it is really Marion Cotillard who is the … Continue reading #76 Film in 2016: Allied
