Josh Reviews The Fall Guy
In The Fall Guy, Ryan Gosling plays stunt man Colt Seavers. We meet him at work on set, doubling for movie-star Tom Ryder (Aaron Taylor-Johnson), and flirting with his girlfriend, camerawoman Jody Moreno (Emily Blunt). But when a stunt goes wrong, Colt is badly injured and retreat
Josh Reviews Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes
I absolutely loved Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes! The film is a wonderful continuation of the venerable Apes franchise (which I dearly love); it’s a beautiful sequel to the previous three-film trilogy (Rise, Dawn, and War for the Planet of the Apes) and also the start of a
Josh Reviews Rebel Moon Part Two: The Scargiver
Why did I watch this? I am not a believer in “hate-watching”. If I am confident I’m not going to like something, I don’t watch it. (This is why I stopped watching Star Trek: Discovery; why I’ve never seen Iron Fist season two, or the last 3-4 Transforme
Josh Reviews Unfrosted
Jerry Seinfeld produced, directed, co-wrote (along with Spike Feresten, Barry Marder, and Andy Robin), and stars in Unfrosted, a very silly movie telling an insane, very much NOT a true story of the creation of the Pop Tart. I’m a huge Jerry Seinfeld fan, so I was of course inte
Josh Reviews Steve! (Martin): A Documentary in 2 Pieces
I’ve been a fan of Steve Martin for as long as I can remember. I probably started with his films, movies like Roxanne and L.A. Story and Parenthood and My Blue Heaven and so many more… and then found my way back into his standup, which was amazing. (As I got older, I d
Josh Reviews Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire
In Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire, once again the two behemoths have to team up to take on a larger evil. A signal from the “Hollow Earth” (a realm that maybe is another dimension, or maybe is actually inside Planet Earth?) (Either way, it was discovered back in Godzi
Josh Reviews The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare
Guy Ritchie’s The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare is (loosely) based on true events from World War II, only recently declassified (and detailed in the 2014 book Churchill’s Secret Warriors: The Explosive True Story of the Special Forces Desperadoes of WWII by Damien Lewi
Josh Reviews Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire
Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire is a sequel to Ghostbusters: Afterlife. Two years after the events of Afterlife, the Spengler clan — kids Trevor (Finn Wolfhard) and Phoebe (Mckenna Grace), mom Callie (Carrie Coon) and her boyfriend Gary (Paul Rudd) — have settled into their
Josh Reviews Dune Part Two
I adore Dune. Frank Herbert’s novel is one of my all-time favorite books. I have read it many, many times. I enjoy all six of Frank Herbert’s Dune novels, but it’s the original book that’s the real stand-out. (I’m not a big fan of the many Dune bo
Josh Reviews Sly
Sly, directed by Thom Zimny, is an engaging, fascinating look back at the life and career of Sylvester Stallone. The film is structured around a series of interviews with Mr. Stallone, in and around his expansive home as it’s getting packed up for a move. I loved the way the fil
