Movie Reviews and Previews Jungle Cruise: The African Queen for kids? The first trailer for Jungle Cruise left me merely whelmed. It came across as a knock-off of The Mummy (the good one), and I was not sold on the chemistry of Emily Blunt and Dwayne Johnson, or the lack of jokes in the trailer. This morning, however, we have a By Sarah • Mar 10, 2020 11:39 am
Movie Reviews and Previews The players return in Jumanji: The Next Level Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle was a surprise hit in 2017, a sequel/soft reboot that actually manages to add to the lore of the original movie, such as changing the Jumanji game from a board game to a video game, while also standing on its own.

Movie Reviews and Previews Hobbs & Shaw is perfectly dumb and so much fun Breaking away from the main body of the Fast/Furious franchise, Hobbs & Shaw unites the two most likable people from the franchise into a gloriously dumb spin-off meant to curtail further infighting with Vin Diesel.

Movie Reviews and Previews Ready Player Jumanji Back during the 2017 holidays, Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle was a surprise, near-billion-dollar hit. So, naturally, a sequel (three-quel, technically) was immediately rushed into development. That movie, Jumanji: The Next Level, is scheduled for the 2019 holiday season, obviously hoping to repeat the fortunes of its predecessor. The first By Sarah • Jul 02, 2019 10:35 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Idris Elba is “black Superman” As previously stated, I am SUPER ON BOARD with Hobbs & Shaw, the Fast/Furious spin-off focused on The Rock and Jason Statham.

Movie Reviews and Previews Hobbs & Shaw is all I ever wanted Back when Fate of the Furious came out, I noted that the best part of the movie was the bit with Dwayne Johnson and Jason Statham. From that moment, all I wanted from this dumb franchise was more of The Rock and Stath. The Fast Furious gods must have heard By Sarah • Feb 01, 2019 12:43 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Dwayne Johnson in Skyscraper Dwayne Johnson reteams with his Central Intelligence director, Rawson Marshall Thurber, for a disaster movie set in a very tall building that is equal parts Die Hard and The Towering Inferno.

Movie Reviews and Previews Fast Idris Hobbs and Shaw is the spinoff franchise partly responsible for my favourite Boy Sh-t of 2016/2017. Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and Vin “Difficult To Work With” Diesel could barely stand each other enough to be on set or on a red carpet together. Their Boy Sh-t led to some By Kathleen • Jul 06, 2018 09:44 am
Movie Reviews and Previews The Rock and a giant gorilla Imagine Jurassic World, except instead of one giant mutant dinosaur there are three giant mutant animal hybrids, and instead of that lone dino-monster terrorizing a theme park the three mutant animals are terrorizing Chicago, and also imagine if Jurassic World was both dumber and more fun—that’s Rampage.

Movie Reviews and Previews Rock Steady There are certain words that have become common in any conversation about Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson – professional, dedicated, hardworking, grateful.

Movie Reviews and Previews The Rock punches a building If you’ve missed the news, Jumanji is tearing up the box office, becoming one of the biggest movies of 2017 (by making most of its money in 2018).
