Ricky Stanicky

 Ricky Stanicky feels like a Farrelly Brothers film, and it is, well it is a solo Peter venture, but it also feels more like a film that wants to be the Brothers Farrelly. It is gross out, and does so moderately well, but the plot is contrived and most of the acting feels very cookie cutter, except for John Cena, as usual knocks it out, but even then the heart the film implies to have is no where to be seen. Coming off of Green Book and The Greatest Beer Run Ever it is a real step back for Peter but it is a real step back for comedy that seems to be missing these days...except from John Cena, seriously the dude kills it in comedic roles. 

Road House

 

Road House is truly an in name only sequel. None of the same characters, not the same bar, nor is it the same plot, the characters here feel very 90s straight to video, the plot feels very streaming....so it is fitting this is on Prime instead of theatres, This is wooden acting in a dull film with choppy fight scenes. Be nice....that's about it. 

Sasquatch Sunset

 Well Sasquatch Sunset is easily the weirdest film of the year thus far. Let's take Jesse Eisenberg & Riley Keough and out them in sasquatch costumes....make them speak no dialogue, just grunt, fuck, use the restroom and learn about death for 90 minutes. It's tedious at times, funny at others, gross for the most part, but oddly heartfelt. 

Resident Alien s3

 Resident Alien season 3 didn't pack the punch of the first 2, and the finale had almost too much plot going on, but hats off to them for making this bonkers ass episode work!

Abigail

 Matt Bettinelli Olphin & Tyler Gillett do it again with Abigail. This might be a loose Dracula's Daughter film but it stands as it's own thing and greatly. It is a perfect double bill with Matt & Tyler's Ready or Not, an ensemble cast, dark humor & blood all around. The cast here works perfect, they are given depth in quick time and we see various sides of the characters. The humor doesn't derail the human aspect or the horror, it just feels real. The horror is a mix of classic horror mixed with post 90s in the know. This has already been a fantastic year for horror and this might be the best of the bunch thus far, toss up with Late Night With the Devil. 

The Beekeeper

 The Beekeeper starts off kind of interesting, a Rambo esque quiet man that is friends wit ha lady that cooks him meals, she is scammed so commits suicide, then he seeks revenge. There are some sweet kills but after the first 45 minutes this turns into a John Wick rip off, not only in terms of kills but in sets(the neon), lore(the deeper Hive/Continental) and characters(rich douches). Jason Statham's character becomes unreasonable and his end game feels a bit antagonistic. 

Match of March
