This film could have been way better if it wasn't solely focused on the raunchy sex scenes. It looks more like a porno than a rom-com. As a gay guy, the movie is relatable but it is very melodramatic and too raunchy as a comedic film. Being the first mainstream LGBT centered movie, I would say that this is a huge let down.  I would not watch this again. It has its moments of being both romantic and funny but it's just way too focused on the sex. It borders down-right cringe and "I can't believe this movie got made" sort of attitude.  Poster Courtesy of Universal Pictures Rate: D Director: Nicholas Stoller  Starring:  Billy Eichner and Sean MacFarlane MPAA Rating: R ( Strong Sexual Content|Some Drug Use|Language Throughout)  Runtime: 1 Hour & 55 Minutes 

There is no science fiction motion picture beauty quite like this. This iconic film has been a global sensation since its release in 2009. Being the number one box-office behemoth and the highest-grossing film of all time, that is up till the release of 2019s " Avengers: Endgame", it still lives up to its glory. It is a visual masterpiece and has to be one of the most visually breathtaking films I have ever seen. The scenery and the action are what science-fiction films are meant to be.  James Cameron has created something that stands out among some of the best films of its kind. The action, story, acting, and score are unique and hold together magnificently. Everything is just perfect and entertaining throughout the whole film all the while with its 2 hours and 40 minutes runtime. It is worth every sci-fi fan's attention this film is that good. He knocks it out of the park and still remains my favorite sci-fi film of all time.  The cast is just as amazing as you would ex...

A fire will rise. The monumental conclusion to the stunning and box-office smash series " The Dark Knight",  ends here. The franchise has been an utter sensation since it first debuted in 2005. And now, it goes all out on trying to be the best of the series, topping the prior installment " The Dark Knight" . It's fantastic, maybe not as much as the first film however, it does an excellent job at wrapping up the story of the Batman in a marvelous and action packed way. He's dealt with Jokers, the mafia, Ra's Al Ghoul and now the sinister masked Bane. What makes Bales performance in this film unique beyond all measures, is his relentless efforts to portray the batman as a flawed yet determined character. Nolan out does himself for the third and final who-rah. It's amazing because themes of severe pain and brokenness makes this film even more interesting. He also adds even more action than the first two films. Once again, Hans Zimmer makes another gripp...

For over a decade, the "Despicable Me"  series has been a global phenomenon for audiences. The most significant part of the iconic film series is the minions. The henchmen of Steve Carrell's eponymous character, Gru, are back in this sequel to the 2015s " Minions".  This new film shows once again that the infectiousness of these films are still alive and well. Unlike its predecessor, this sequel has what that film did not have, and that's consistency. With this film being delayed multiple times throughout the past few years, this was worth the wait.  The humor in this film is just as you would expect from the crew at "Illumination", as funny as ever! Though the previous installment was not as nearly as entertaining as this sequel is. This film is the reason why myself and audiences everywhere are so entertained by these funny characters. The antics from the minions are just as goofy as they have ever been and this film reiterates the fact that thes...

The final entry to the " Homecoming " trilogy is the best in the series. Not only is it the best in the series, but it is also the best Spider-Man film of all time without a doubt in my mind. It was the year's most anticipated film of the year and it not only lives up to the hype, but it also exceeds expectations. It has the most action I have ever seen in a Spider-Man film. The action is intense, exciting, and thrilling. The film also has the genuine heart and humor fans of the franchise, let alone the Marvel filmography as a whole, have come to expect. It will go down in cinema history as one of the most entertaining superhero films of all time.  Director Jon Watts concludes his trilogy in a fantastic fashion. He has crafted the best of the trilogy and this film is a treasure to behold. His direction in this film tops the previous two films tenfold. It has the heart, action, and humor that fans expect from a Marvel movie. The scope of the action is unlike anything I hav...

It is one of the most anticipated films of the year. The iconic Frank Herbert science-fiction novel comes to life once again. This film is the second adaptation of the bestselling novel. This new film is extraordinary at the highest levels. Though the film does tend to cause confusion with its plot, it makes up for that with the stunning visuals, action packed scenes and a chilling score from Hans Zimmer. The film sets the standard for science fiction cinema and is top quality for science fiction films.  Director Denis Villeneuve is no stranger to crafting sci-fi films. He is known for " Arrival " and " Blade Runner: 2049 " At the time of those films release, he had blown away audiences with his unique and compelling films. His latest feature here is next level sci-fi cinema. His version of the iconic novel is immense and grand on the largest scale. His film is truly unique even if the plot is a bit confusing to comprehend.  This grand spectacle of epic proportions ...
