    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? Yes, I am fan of Samara Weaving and slowly becoming a fan of Kyle Gallner.

    Review: Good movie! Worth watching in my opinion. Samara & Kyle’s chemistry was great. Yes, it’s another Bonnie & Clyde type movie, but worth watching just to see Samara’s & Kyle’s performances. I didn’t expect much from this movie to be honest, so I was pleasantly surprised that it was better than I thought it would be. I recommend it.

  • Animals (2026)

    Info: Rated R. To learn more about this movie, please visit IMDb: Animals (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 both Ben Affleck and Kerry Washington.

    Review: I thought this movie was better than expected. The story itself was decent overall and was carried by the strong acting performances all around, the cast was great! Ben, Kerry, Gillian, Luis & Adriana did great and I thought they all had good chemistry together. This movie never really delved deep into some of the themes they introduced and there is nothing wrong with that. Decent story, good acting, good pacing…not a bad way to spend an evening. I recommend it.

  • Motor City (2026)

    Info: Rated R. To learn more about this movie, please visit IMDb: Motor City (2025) – 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 had zero idea this was a silent film going in. At first, I thought something was wrong with my center channel speaker or my Apple TV was messing up. I’m glad neither was the case. Anyway, back to the movie, this was a good movie. I thought the cast did a great job of telling the story despite no dialog. With that said, I did feel like the plot was weak and the pacing was a little off. Overall, I recommend it. Just beware, it is a silent film so you won’t have to worry about checking if your TV or home theater setup has issues 🙂

    Any Bias? No.

    Review: To be honest, I was going to skip this one because it just did not look like it would be good. But then I started hearing that it was not too bad, so I decided to give it a shot. Overall, I thought it was entertaining, a little crazy & cheesy at times but overall, not bad. Olivia did great and Cooper wasn’t too bad either to be honest. I recommend it.

  • Disclosure Day (2026)

    Info: Rated PG-13. To learn more about this movie, please visit IMDb: Disclosure Day (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 am a huge fan of Steven Spielberg’s movies. I was looking forward to this one because he does not usually disappoint.

    Review: Disappointing might be the best way to describe this movie and my mood after watching it. The story and acting were just not that good in my opinion. This one was a rare miss for Mr. Spielberg, and it just failed to capture that Spielberg magic. Skip it unless you’re a die hard fan of Steven’s movies and even then, don’t expect too much.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Don’t Say Good Luck (2026)

    Info: Rated PG-13. To learn more about this movie, please visit IMDb: Don’t Say Good Luck (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? If I’m being honest, this movie hit really close to home so I might be a little biased while writing this.

    Review: I want to start by saying that this was not the type of movie I was expecting to watch but I am so glad that I did. Such a good movie! Melanie Lynskey & Sunny Sadler did a great job playing mother and daughter, respectively. The story was written well and felt real genuine. I love it.

    Trying to put my bias aside, I recommend watching this. I don’t believe you will be disappointed.

  • 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.
