2021 Film Review: Gunpowder Milkshake11/30/2021 Written by: Kevin Berge  They've got guns, lots of them, and they are absolutely not afraid to shoot anything off of you. (Image Courtesy of: ign.com) Quick Take: Gunpowder Milkshake has a style-over-substance air that takes away from some its most potentially effective story beats, but its simple premise works to deliver a brutal violent action movie that would have likely landed better if it was made a decade ago.
Written by: Kevin Berge  7 movies in, we're finally bringing horror to the Resident Evil live action movies. Wait, there's been 7 Resident Evil live action movies? How? (Image Courtesy of: ontapsportsnet.com) Quick Take: Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City is a faithful adaptation of the first two Resident Evil games.

2021 Film Review: The Eternals11/13/2021 Written by: Kevin Berge  As the world ended, they just kind of let it happened, but now it's really important to stop those evil CGI monster things. (Image Courtesy of: hollywoodreporter.com) Quick Take: The Eternals tries to do more than any Marvel movie before in breaking the MCU cycle. However, it is a disjointed experience that never gets enough time to breathe. Its likable characters are let down by the script around them.
