Beau Is Afraid

Beau Wasserman is the son of a famous and wealthy businesswoman, Mona. He grows up without a father, who his mother says died during an orgasm (which was also when Beau was conceived), a hereditary medical condition that she claims was passed down to Beau.

Reread that synopsis.  I dare you.  Reread it without mumbling the words WHAT THE FUCK.  Now if you make it past that imagine that this movie is THREE HOURS LONG.   I made it almost half way before pulling the plug and just kept mumbling what the fuck am I watching the whole time.   I couldn't possibly imagine continuing.  

I would not recommend anyone ever bothering with this.  It is a massively too long waste of time.  I don't even see how this could get one of those ooooh it's so well done artistic rubs.  Like it was just weird as hell for the sake of being weird.  

Evil Dead Rise

A reunion between two estranged sisters gets cut short by the rise of flesh-possessing demons, thrusting them into a primal battle for survival as they face the most nightmarish version of family imaginable.

This movie had one of the creepiest trailers I have ever seen and quite honestly they kind of failed to deliver on that.  While there was definitely some WTF creepy moments in the movie it relied on over the top gore more often and too much.  Like when absolute brutality is happening on screen and you are just kind of numb to it then they have overdone it.   

I wouldn't really recommend people checking this out unless they want to see a ton of extremely senseless gore.  It didn't really have much substance or story and the creepiness of the trailer did not come through as hoped.

Renfield

Renfield, the tortured aide to his narcissistic boss, Dracula, is forced to procure his master's prey and do his every bidding. However, after centuries of servitude, he's ready to see if there's a life outside the shadow of the Prince of Darkness.

This was honestly a pretty silly ass movie but that was completely expected.   The casting of Nicolas Cage and Nicholas Hoult was honestly perfect and kept you entertained throughout regardless of how silly the movie was.  The gore was sudden and crazy over the top at times but as long as you can deal with that then you would enjoy this movie.

I would recommend people checking this out.  Not because its a good movie by any means but it is a silly entertaining watch for sure.

Mafia Mamma

A mild-mannered suburban mum unexpectedly inherits her late grandfather's mafia empire in Italy. Guided by the firm's trusted consigliere, she hilariously defies everyone's expectations as she finds herself stuck in the middle of a deadly mob war.

This was an extremely mailed in movie.  If you saw the trailer you 100% saw the movie.  There was nothing special about it and very very formula.  It was nice to see Toni Collette in a lighter material movie for once but that is really the only positive thing I can say about it.

I wouldn't recommend anyone bothering with this movie.  It's a just there stereotypical comedy that is pretty much a big waste of time.

Air

Sonny Vaccaro and Nike pursue basketball rookie Michael Jordan, creating a partnership that revolutionizes the world of sports and contemporary culture.

For a movie that not much really happens except for negotiating a deal this was a very entertaining movie.   It was a great cast with some awesome performances - especially Viola Davis.   It did a great job of pulling back the curtain to show how something so big started with something so small and was all about people being dedicated and taking chances.

I would definitely recommend people checking this movie out.   It was a really good watch.

The Pope's Exorcist

Father Gabriele Amorth, chief exorcist for the Vatican, battles Satan and innocent-possessing demons. A detailed portrait of a priest who performed more than 100,000 exorcisms in his lifetime.

This is really just another run of the mill exorcist movie.  Adding Russell Crowe did absolutely nothing to it except really marveling at how far he fell off.   There was nothing special or different about this movie in any way except his name value which is clearly not what it was at one point.

I wouldn't recommend anyone bothering with this.  Some of the makeup of the possessed kid was good at times but that is literally the only thing that I took from this movie.

The Super Mario Bros Movie

With help from Princess Peach, Mario gets ready to square off against the all-powerful Bowser to stop his plans from conquering the world.

This movie is exactly what you would expect.   Very fun animation and shout outs to the video game.  Great characters that you already know and love.  And lots of laughs for adults as much as kids throughout.  This is a perfect family movie because of how universal Super Mario Bros is for all ages at this point.

I would definitely recommend people checking this out.   It was a very fun watch.

Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves

A charming thief and a band of unlikely adventurers embark on an epic quest to retrieve a long lost relic, but their charming adventure goes dangerously awry when they run afoul of the wrong people.

I am stunned at how much I enjoyed this movie.  I had honestly only gone to see it because one of my nieces has had the family role play through stuff like this and it has been hilarious so of course we had to see this.  And then the movie was actually a fun as hell ride.  If felt a lot like a Pirates Of The Caribbean or Jungle Cruise kind of ride.  You turn off your brain and just be entertained by it all.  

I would shockingly recommend people checking this out.  Never thought I would say that but this movie was a lot of fun.
