Movie Guru's Movie Briefs

• Movie Brief Reviews
  What we have here are mostly ruminations on movies coming out since I write many of these briefs the day before they are released. Though in some cases I wait and post these mini-reviews after I have seen the movie. I believe the less you know about a movie, the better chance you might enjoy it to the upside. Too many reviewers seem to go out of their ways to ruin for you the movie experience with way too much information.
  
  
• On the Basis of Sex
  The young Ruth Bader Ginsburg story as opposed to the RBG documentary that covered her entire life and was a great success. I believe Ruth Bader Ginsburg should have retired years ago. However her celebrity burns so brightly now because she has remained with her broken body, embattled by opposition attacks, and her passing will result in her deification in American history. Therefore on strictly personal terms her overstay on the Supreme Court has resulted in these two most recent movies being made which makes her staying a good choice. I mean Scalia hasn't even gotten one movie about his life.
  
  
• The Mule
  American treasure Clint Eastwood's latest directorial effort about a 90 year old drug smuggler allows him to star for the first time since his Gran Torino. Since I haven't seen this new movie yet, I reserve judgement. However, good or bad, this is a must see for moviegoers of all persuasions. And now that I have seen The Mule, it is a very good movie.
  
  
• Vice
  Adam McKay's last directorial effort was The Big Short. What he did to the Great Recession in that movie, it looks like he has now done to the Dick Cheney - George Bush White House. In other words you know if this is a movie you want to see. However what is fascinating about McKay's five directorial efforts before The Big Short and Vice is that they all starred Will Ferrell in Ferrell's best movies ever (Talladega Night's anyone?).
  
  
• Aquaman
  Obviously an Aquaman is a man that lives underwater. This is a DC comic book character as opposed to a Marvel comic book character. In the past this has meant cheesy, which isn't bad if you want a fun super-hero popcorn movie. Fingers crossed. I still have not seen Aquaman except in bits and pieces, but the audiences are coming out of the theater loving it. The underwater stuff I have seen so far is pretty crazy and totally B-movie fun. James Cameron's upcoming A-list underwater trilogy sequel to Avatar will have to overcome the enjoyment Aquaman's creative team seems to have had with this movie.
  
  
• A Dog's Way Home
  This is not the recent A Dog's Purpose movie which choked up dog lovers everywhere. This seems to be a remake of the classic Homeward Bound, the greatest dog movie ever. Therefore it should be a great movie along the lines of Mary Poppins Returns vs. Mary Poppins. In other words for this generation of families A Dog's Way Home will become the new classic.
  
  
• The Upside
  Millionaire Bryan Cranston is paralyzed. He hires screw-up Kevin Hart as his caregiver because he wants someone who will let him die when it is time. Cranston and Hart bond during catheter changes. Everyone lives happily ever after. Based on the French Untouchables which was an international sensation, I would be looking forward to this comedy if it weren't for the catheters.
  
  
• Glass
  Bruce Willis, Samuel Jackson, and James McAvoy return from M. Night Shyamalan's previous Unbreakable and Split movies. That makes Glass the third in a series that started a long time ago. Since I haven't seen Glass yet and prefer not to know anything going in, I cannot say if this is a series that will continue, or simply end here and now. Since these types of series go on and on as long as they make money, I assume there will be more to come. Interesting I had no idea this was going to be a series because I barely remember Unbreakable and walked out of Split before the end.
  
  
• Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse
  I watched enough of this animated Spider-Man to realize it is a full fledged movie worthy of adult attention. The characters are well developed. The script tells the well worn Spider-Man story in new ways. The animation is closer to comic book art than computer generated effects. I look forward to watching it all the way until the end.
  
  
• Bumblebee
  A prequel to the Transformers series, guess what, it is getting great reviews from serious film critics. This is not a good sign for a big budget CGI movie. These kinds of tent poles take weak reviews for granted because they are made for the lowest common denominator looking for the largest possible audience. What happens here is the quality of the film turns off its core audience, and the great reviews aren't enough to bring in the review driven crowd. We shall see.
  
  
• Replicas
  Keanu Reeves in a science fiction story that I assume hopes to replicate (haha) the success of the Matrix series. No chance. But I love Keanu Reeves movies and can't wait for the release of John Wick 3 so Replicas will have to do until then.
  
  
• Bollywood Movies
  The South Point has become the home for Bollywood movies straight from India in various Indian dialects with English sub-titles. These are incredibly entertaining films sort of in the classic 1950's Cecil B DeMille style. Some are musicals, some 3-D science fiction, most are populated by Indian superstars. They are worth a try if you are an adventurous non- Indian movie fan.
