Aftermath - A Disaster of Cinematic Proportions

Aftermath - A Disaster of Cinematic Proportions

When I stumbled upon the 2024 action flick "Aftermath," directed by Patrick Lussier and starring Mason Gooding, Dylan Sprouse, Megan Stott, and Dichen Lachman, I braced myself for a thrill ride filled with suspense and explosive action. Instead, what I got was a front-row seat to a demolition derby of filmmaking: a spectacular collision of bad scriptwriting, painful performances, and puzzling plot choices that could run circles around any B-movie cache.

The Ballad of Davy Crockett - A Disaster Frontier Awaits

The Ballad of Davy Crockett - A Disaster Frontier Awaits

When you sit down to watch a biographical film named The Ballad of Davy Crockett, you may have some fair expectations. Perhaps a legendary tale filled with thrilling adventures and a touching narrative, one that would pay glorious tribute to the life and times of the famed American frontiersman. Alas, this cinematic endeavour by director Derek Estlin Purvis with Colm Meaney, Jesse Hutch, and William Moseley isn't just disappointingly far from it, it's perturbing.

Kraven the Hunter - An Epic Tale of Epic Failures

Kraven the Hunter - An Epic Tale of Epic Failures

Welcome to Sony's latest foray into cinematic chaos, "Kraven the Hunter," now available for our collective curiosity and cautious glances. Released on December 13, 2024, this film attempts to explore the depths of Kraven's character—a journey that somehow leads down the rabbit hole of stupidity rather than insight.

Alarum (2025)

Alarum (2025)

I went into Alarum thinking, perhaps out of misplaced optimism, or just that basic human longing for improvement, that it has to be better than Armor, the last shitty Randal Emmett movie with Stallone. But you know what? It's not! If cinema is meant to offer us hope and reinvention, here is a sequel in spirit, though not in name, that squanders even that. To its defence, Alarum brings a few new weak spots to the autopsy table, but much of the decay is depressingly familiar.

Harry Brown - The Geriatric Avenger's Epic Quest for a Nap

Harry Brown - The Geriatric Avenger's Epic Quest for a Nap

In the grimy, rain-soaked underbelly of London, where hope goes to die a slow death, we find "Harry Brown" (2009), a film that promises a gritty, no-holds-barred exploration of vigilantism and despair. With Michael Caine donning the mantle of our titular anti-hero, one might be forgiven for expecting a thrilling ride through the mean streets, à la "Batman" meets "Death Wish." Alas, the reality is as disappointing as finding out your favorite superhero is secretly a vegan.

Planet Dune - A Cosmic Comedy of Errors in Space

Planet Dune - A Cosmic Comedy of Errors in Space

Planet Dune, the movie that dares to ask: "What if we take all the epic grandeur of Dune and replace it with... well, whatever this is?" Directed by Tammy Klein and Glenn Campbell, and released in September 2021, this science fiction mockbuster is more of a cosmic comedic catastrophe than anything else. And you know what? I actually liked it.

Elevation - A Dismal Descent into Cinematic Oblivion

Elevation - A Dismal Descent into Cinematic Oblivion

Elevation, the latest post-apocalyptic action thriller directed by George Nolfi, I was hoping for an engaging adventure that would blend tactical survival with emotional stakes. After all, the film stars Anthony Mackie and Morena Baccarin, both actors known for their compelling performances. Unfortunately, what unfolded before me was a cinematic trainwreck of boredom, confusion, and missed opportunities.
