I had about the same expectations for this as I did for Dolittle. Good news, this isn’t as bad as Dolittle, but that honestly isn’t saying much. I only really decided to see Fantasy Island because the idea of an island that can grant your dream fantasy and then turn it against you sounded quite … Continue reading Fantasy Island: Not Worth Visiting!
Just wanted to announce before starting this review that my 200th post is not far away and I was thinking of doing another Q&A to mark the occasion.

Just leave your questions in the comments section of any … Continue reading Sonic the Hedgehog: Painfully Average!
Hello it's me, The Blog Complainer.

I swear this will be the final 2019 movie I talk about! Blame Australia for releasing the best films months after the rest of the world. A24 are renowned for being one of the few studios to consistently release amazing movies year after year.

The Disneyathon Part 15: Post Disney Renaissance Ugh! It should be illegal for an animated kid’s movie to make you feel so teary eyed! It’s so satisfying when you find a movie that you really loved as a kid only for it to be even better when you’re older and more cold and cynical. The … Continue reading The Disneyathon Part 16: The Fall of 2D Animation

I had no expectations for this movie as I remember been only mildly entertained by the Eddie Murphy Dr Dolittle back when I … Continue reading Dolittle worse than Cats!
It's that time of year again where I share my thoughts on the Oscar nominations. We're not messing about so let's begin with... Expecting the Expected I mentioned in the first line of my Jojo Rabbit review that this year's nominations weren't that surprising and everyone getting fed up with what was left out is … Continue reading My Thoughts On The 2020 Oscar Nominations
The Oscars' nominations were announced the other day and it went down pretty much as I expected. Yeah, I have my gripes like everyone else does, but as I said I wasn't the least bit surprised. But that is a topic for another day. I have been catching up on all of the movies I … Continue reading Jojo Rabbit is a worthy Oscar pick
