    Where to Watch: As of this writing, this movie is an AppleTV+ exclusive and is only available to watch on AppleTV+.

    Any Bias? Yup, I generally like Ryan Reynold’s movies.

    Review: To be honest, I didn’t think Kenneth Branagh and Ryan Reynolds would work acting opposite each other. Just seems like an odd pairing to me for some reason. Anyway, I’m glad I was wrong. They played well off each other, and I thought the movie was entertaining. The plot was nothing special, but it was decent for what it was. I recommend watching it.

  • Toy Story 5 (2026)

    Info: Rated PG. To learn more about this movie, please visit IMDb: Toy Story 5 (2026) – IMDb

    Where to Watch: You can rent or purchase this movie at most digital movie retailers. As of this writing, it’s not available on any streaming service.

    Any Bias? Yup, I love the Toy Story movies. I was definitely looking forward to seeing this one too.

    Review: Overall, I liked it. I thought it was better than Toy Story 4, but not better than the first three movies. The message in this movie was thoughtful and gives you something to think about. But, that’s a different topic for a different day. The animation was top notch as usual and so was the voice acting. Even though this was the 5th movie in the franchise, it never felt like it, meaning it did not feel like a cash grab type of sequel. Which is something you can’t really say too often for a long running franchise.

    I wholeheartedly recommend watching it. You won’t be disappointed, especially if you are a big fan of the Toy Story movies in general.

  • All Night Wrong (2026)

    Info: Rated R. To learn more about this movie, please visit IMDb: All Night Wrong (2026) – IMDb

    Where to Watch: You can rent or purchase this movie at most digital movie retailers. As of this writing, it’s not available on any streaming service.

    Any Bias? No.

    Review: This movie was terrible. Not worth watching in my opinion. I was hoping it would be at least decent because of Zach Cherry. The only reason I watched this is because I think Zach’s work in Severance is great, so I was curious to see what he could do in a different role. He did the best he could with the source material given to him. Skip it.

  • The Invite (2026)

    Info: Rated R. To learn more about this movie, please visit IMDb: The Invite (2026) – IMDb

    Where to Watch: You can rent or purchase this movie at most digital movie retailers. As of this writing, it’s not available on any streaming service.

    Any Bias? No.

    Review: I heard this movie was really good, so I was looking forward to finally watching it. It wasn’t too bad. I was not expecting the story to go where it went but it didn’t harm the movie at all. The cast played off each other well. Seth & Olivia did great as the couple with issues. Edward & Penélope were perfect as their neighbors. All in all, I enjoyed it. I’d say it’s worth watching.

  • Balls Up (2026)

    Info: Rated R. To learn more about this movie, please visit IMDb: Balls Up (2026) – IMDb

    Where to Watch: You can rent or purchase this movie at most digital movie retailers. As of this writing, this movie is available to stream on Amazon Prime Video.

    Any Bias? Yes, I generally like Mark Wahlberg’s movies and this one looked like it could be funny.

    Review: Well, it had its moments but overall, it just was not that funny. Most jokes failed to land in my opinion and they felt forced. Sacha Baron Cohen was one of the highlights of the movie. He was funny in his role. At the end of the day, it’s hard for me to recommend this one unless you’re a huge fan of Mark’s.

  • Jay Kelly (2025)

    Info: Rated R. To learn more about this movie, please visit IMDb: Jay Kelly (2025) – IMDb

    Where to Watch: As of this writing, this movie is a Netflix exclusive and is only available to watch on Netflix.

    Any Bias? I like Adam Sandler & George Clooney’s movies for the most part.

    Review: What a good movie! I thought both Adam & George did great in their roles. Not really used to seeing Adam play a role like this but he did great as Ron. The overall story was good and I thought they did a good job of showing Jay Kelly’s journey of self-discovery. I really do not want to say terribly too much more because I do not want to spoil it. I highly recommend watching it.

  • How to Make a Killing (2026)

    Info: Rated R. To learn more about this movie, please visit IMDb: How to Make a Killing (2026) – IMDb

    Where to Watch: You can rent or purchase this movie at most digital movie retailers. As of this writing, this movie is available to stream on HBO Max.

    Any Bias? None.

    Review: I didn’t really care for this movie. There were some good moments here and there but overall it was a miss. It never ‘clicked’ or really got going. Which stinks because the story was interesting enough and I felt like they could’ve done better. Only watch if you have nothing else to watch and want to kill some time.

  • 72 Hours (2026)

    Info: Rated R. To learn more about this movie, please visit IMDb: 72 Hours (2026) – IMDb

    Where to Watch: As of this writing, this movie is a Netflix exclusive and is only available to watch on Netflix.

    Any Bias? Yes, I am a fan of Kevin Hart’s comedy and genuinely find his standup and movies funny.

    Review: Ok, honestly, this movie was not that funny. I usually enjoy Kevin’s movies for the most part, so I was a little disappointed here. Most of the jokes felt forced and just did not land in my opinion. The story was actually good, just poorly executed. Ahh well. Can’t win them all. I say skip unless you’re a huge Kevin Hart fan that has to watch everything he is in.

  • Scary Movie – Extended Cut (2026)

    Info: Rated R. To learn more about this movie, please visit IMDb: Scary Movie (2026) – IMDb

    Where to Watch: You can rent or purchase this movie at most digital movie retailers. As of this writing, it’s not available on any streaming service.

    Any Bias? Somewhat. I do like The Wayans Brothers; they are funny with the right movie. I was pleasantly surprised they got the rights back to this franchise. I was looking forward to it.

    Review: I didn’t get a chance to watch this in theaters, so I had to settle for the Extended Cut 🙂 Overall, it was just ok. Some jokes & scenes were pretty funny; others fell a little flat and felt forced. If you enjoyed the first couple of Scary Movies The Wayans Brothers were involved in, then you will more than likely enjoy this one too. Otherwise, skip it.

    Review: Didn’t know what to expect before watching this movie to be honest. All I knew going in was Brendan Fraser starred in it and it was a dramatic comedy. I was impressed and I really liked it overall. The movie had emotional depth to it and the script was good. I thought Brendan and the rest of the cast did a great job of bringing their characters to life and giving them the emotional depth the script called for. It’s good to see Brendan back on screen.
