Lazy science fiction.
Month: October 2019
Superman: Unbound (2013) 60%
Animated. Fine.
Sunshine (2007) 60%
-30% for a terrible third act.
Stranger Than Fiction (2006) 75%
Clever, meta.
Soaked in Bleach (2015) 50%
Easy to believe (but probably BS) questioning of the facts related to Kurt Cobain’s death.
Moonlight (2016) 75%
Powerful, tough watch.
Zootopia (2016) 85%
Excellent animated movie.
Zombeavers (2014) 35%
Aspires to be campy. Bill Burr and John Mayer cameo.
Starship Troopers (1997) 60%
A strange movie. Allegedly a satire of the original militaristic Heinlein novel, it plays just like a bad action movie for those not looking for the satire. I also suspect it is received as simply glorification of violence and xenophobia for those already leaning that way. +5% for prime Denise Richards.
Zodiac: Signs of the Apocalypse (2014) 35%
Syfy. Poorly acted. Christopher Lloyd cameo, followed by a Doc Brown reference.
