Movie Review – ‘Reed’s Point’ is a feature in search of a creature
Reed’s Point (2022) is unrated but for the sake of the really good practical effects, call it PG-13 for swears, car crashes, head wounds, throat gouges, broken limbs, and gunshots to the face.
Movie Review – Long ‘Ambulance’ ride fails to save the day
Ambulance is the kind of film that was made for the big screen — it’s also must be what it’s like to snort cocaine and Adderall at the same time. A frenetic, high action, and potentially seizure-inducing long ride that will divide its audience.
Movie Review – “Sonic the Hedgehog 2′ is an overpowered mess
Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (2022) is rated PG for literal cartoon violence, eating mushrooms (not the psychedelic kind, sadly), super mild swears, and humor our mothers would have called rude.
Movie Review – ‘Morbius’ is flashy antihero gothic
Morbius (2022) is rated PG-13 for swears, rather violent transformations, lots of blood-guzzling (both synthetic and human), sharp teeth and claws, eviscerations, drops from great heights, and bats. Please be advised there are a lot of strobe effects in this very loud movie that could trigger episodes in those who are sensitive to such things

Better Nate Than Ever (2022) premieres on Disney+ April 1. It’s rated PG and it’s Disney so the most objectionable thing you’ll see is Nate accidentally smacking a bully in the nose drawing a little blood.
SXSW Movie Review – ‘The Cellar’
The Cellar (2022) debuted during SXSW 2022 as part of its Midnighter Film series and is currently unrated. Call it PG-13 for little to no blood, atmospheric scares, and tension cranked up to 8.
SXSW Movie Review – ‘Everything Everywhere All At Once’
If there’s one thing Everything Everywhere All At Once gets absolutely right, it’s its namesake. There’s so much happening it can be easy to miss the morsels of greatness Daniels’ have left for viewers. This film will require multiple viewings; however, in the film’s second half, I could feel my attention waning.
Movie Review – ‘Win a Trip to Brownstown’ ends up in the mud
Win a Trip to Brownstown! shows how being in love can get you dirty but takes a wrong turn down the Hershey highway in this uneven comedy.
