IR Film Review: JUNGLE CRUISE [Disney]
"Jungle Cruise" is a fun ride but not really anything new. Its plot points can be pulled almost directly from "The Mummy" with modern inclusion standards updating (which again is understandable).
IR Film Review: OLD [Universal]
Suffice to say, "Old" has an idea of the metaphorical story it wants to tell while reflecting a real world ideal of what is for the greater good.
IR Film Review: BLOOD RED SKY [Netflix]
But for general entertainment of the action bent with a genre twist, "Blood Red Sky" does deliver but not overtly beyond its intended means.
IR Film Review: SPACE JAM - A NEW LEGACY [Warner Brothers]
Here Lebron James is the new Michael Jordan and he holds up pretty well. No one expects him to do Shakespeare but he delivers as he needs to, maintains his focus of play but also seems to have a little fun.
IR Film Review: PIG [Neon]
Unlike "Prisoners Of The Ghostland" which was a mash up (or perhaps like it), his new film "Pig" is not initially what it seems to be. It can be said that this is one of Cage’s more subtle performances (although physically it is not).
IR Film Review: DEEP [Netflix]
The texture of "Deep", a psychological thriller of sorts from Thailand that Netflix acquired is interesting in its mix of new tech, almost "Escape Room" ideas mixed with "Flatliners" and a grounded focus that makes sense.
IR Film Review: ESCAPE ROOM - TOURNAMENT OF CHAMPIONS [Sony]
The key here in "Escape Room: Tournament Of Champions" is that those who survived previous escape rooms are drawn back together to satisfy another adrenaline junkie approach, not for their own benefit but for the unknown magnates perhaps betting on their suffering
IR Film Review: GUNPOWDER MILKSHAKE [Netflix]
When "Gunpowder Milkshake" was first announcedin the trades, the aspect of this cast, and a female led action picture shot in Berlin just seemed like a fantastic idea. And for the most part, it is.
IR Film Review: DIE IN A GUNFIGHT [Lionsgate]
"Die In A Gunfight" wants to be a fable bringing an essence of "Heathers" and Baz Luhrmann's "Romeo & Juliet" to its identity but never quite makes the grade.
