Avatar: Fire And Ash

The conflict on Pandora escalates as Jake and Neytiri's family encounter a new, aggressive Na'vi tribe.

These movies are very weird to review.  Visually - they are always stunning.  Honestly the only movies that you should be sure to go out of your way to see in 3D because of the technology used to film them.   The action scenes are great.  But like you can't really comment on the acting because well . . . . . . . . it's voice acting.   And the story is pretty much just there.  Has been from the beginning.   And then there is the run time of this movies that is just downright painful.  Like seeing this after a long week and long day of work was a massive mistake.  LMAO!!!   

Was it enjoyable - sure.  Again, visually amazing.  Like nothing can touch these.   But does it have to be sooooooooooooo long?

Reminders Of Him

After a perfect outing with her boyfriend, Kenna (Maika Monroe; The Hand that Rocks the Cradle, Longlegs) makes an unbearable mistake that sends her to prison. Seven years later, Kenna returns to her hometown in Wyoming, hoping to rebuild her life and earn the chance to reunite with her young daughter, Diem, whom she has never known.

This is another heart string puller from the Colleen Hoover books to movies train.   It is a good watch if that is your kind of movie.   However, if you saw the trailer you quite honestly saw the movie.  I was honestly so confused that I could have sworn I had seen this but it was just the exposure of the movie from the trailers and commercials that gave you everything already.

I would somewhat recommend this movie to people.  It is not a must see by any means whatsoever.  But it is a decent watch regardless.

The Bride!

After a century of solitude, Frankenstein's monster seeks a mate, resulting in the reanimation of a murdered woman. The Bride, however, refuses to be merely a companion, asserting her independence and initiating a violent, romantic outlaw journey.

What in the blue fucking hell was this!?!   I'm sorry but this movie was such hot garbage.  How did these actors say yeah let's do this.   The first half was like a weird genre hopping movie between horror, comedy, drama, musical.  And then the second half was literally Bonnie & Clyde but with . . . . . monsters.

I would not recommend anyone bother with this movie.  Ever.

GOAT

Will is a small goat with grand ambitions, dreaming of becoming the greatest of all time (GOAT) in "roarball"—a high-intensity, full-contact, co-ed sport dominated by massive predator animals. Living in the hectic urban landscape of Vineland, Will gets a once-in-a-lifetime chance to join his favorite team, the struggling Thorns. Despite skepticism from teammates and a, , , arrogant superstar MVP standing in his way, Will is determined to prove that he has what it takes to revolutionize the game.

This was actually better than what I expected.  I figured it would just be the underdog sports movie which it very much was.  But the movie also had a lot of character development and good moral/uplifting side stories that made you much more invested in the movie for adults since kids were already guaranteed to like it.

I would definitely recommend families checking this out.  It was a better than expected enjoyable movie.

Wuthering Heights

The film centers on the intense, destructive bond between Catherine Earnshaw (Robbie) and her adopted brother/soulmate Heathcliff (Elordi). It highlights their shared trauma, social displacement, and cruel manipulation of others.

Movies based in this time period have always been kind of like my kryptonite.  There is something about how overly dressed and proper they all are.  LOL!!   This movie definitely had the same effect for me even though it was more watchable than most.  This just seemed like a Romeo & Juliet kind of movie in that time period.

I would sort of recommend anyone that loves tragic love stories checking this out.  Otherwise, there would really be no reason for you to bother.

Solo Mio

A wedding disaster leaves a groom stranded in Rome, heartbroken in the world's happiest city. However, with help from a determined local and a few meddling couples, his ruined honeymoon becomes an adventure that he never expected.

This was a cute yet completely formula movie.  It was kind of different to see a rom-com with a leading man instead of a leading woman.  And Kevin James actually did a really good job in the role.  He left his usual silly comedy on the side and it made the movie feel genuine enough to keep you interested.

I would somewhat recommend people checking this movie out.  It's a decent enough watch.

Dracula

Directed by Luc Besson, Dracula: A Love Tale (2026) is a gothic romantic drama starring Caleb Landry Jones as a 15th-century prince who renounces God after his wife’s tragic death, becoming an immortal vampire. Centuries later, he traverses time to find her reincarnation in 19th-century Europe, pursued by a relentless priest (Christoph Waltz). 

I honestly tried to give this movie a chance.   I made it about halfway through and honestly had no clue what was going on nor did I care at all.  There was literally no hook in this movie at all and it was not even worth finishing.  

I would not recommend anyone bothering with this movie at all.  It's a total waste of time.

I Can Only Imagine 2

A decade after the chart-topping success of "I Can Only Imagine," Bart Millard is on top of the world, but his personal life is fracturing. When his son faces a life-altering health diagnosis, Bart is forced to confront his past to avoid repeating the mistakes of his father. Featuring new music and a deeper look into the power of gratitude, this powerful sequel follows the journey behind the hit song "Even If".

This movie was exactly what you would think it was.   A spiritual heart string puller that is a decent watch.   Very similar to the first one - these types of movies really depend on your mindset when currently watching them.  If you are open to inspiration and hope at the time they are great and very reassuring.  If you are not you watch them like get the hell out of here.  LOL!

I would somewhat recommend people checking this out.  Like I said - if you are in the right mindset it is a decent watch.
