Outlaw King (2018)

Outlaw King with Chris Pine is the true story of the Scottish King Robert the Bruce. Honestly, I know next to nothing about Scottish history so how true it is I can’t tell you. What I can say is the movie has something for everyone. For example, the men get to see some brutal killings, epic battle scenes and even some nice breast from a woman. Ladies? The movie has a love story and a 100% naked Chirs Pine.

There is also some intrigue and backstabbing involved tho you Game of Throne fans won’t be impressed and the over two hour run time will be a turn off for some people. But for fans of history and period pieces will enjoy that time. Watching a small army become a band of men and grow again is always fun. Seeing a huge insurmountable army slowly crumble is the stuff of legend and for me is the true joy in all of this.

The movie, of course, isn’t perfect and much of it feels like filler that could have been done without. Unless you are a fan of this sort of movie I really don’t suggest watching it. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Lost Romero Film Found: The Amusement Park

As odd as it sounds, Screenrant reports that a long lost George Romero horror film called The Amusement Park. The movie is apparently so obscure most people didn’t know it existed until recently. This 60-minute film has been mostly unseen since 1973. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Cranston Responds To Breaking Bad Movie

We have all heard the story of a new Breaking Bad Movie and entertainment has reported that Bryan Cranston has commented on it. Turns out He hasn’t seen or read the script and raised the question of is he even in the movie? I haven’t actually watched the show ( save your hatred for later) but it is a wild thought, I can’t imagine him not being in it. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Disney Streaming Service Has a Name

As many people have been wondering, what would Disney call their streaming service? The answer according to ScreenRant is Disney Plus. There are still plenty of questions to be answered, but we also know that Polygon confirmed there will be a Loki spinoff limited series, and yes Tom H. Will be taking his role back for it. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Jeff Who Lives At Home

 

Jeff Who Lives At Home is the movie of a loser that lives in mom’s basement having a pretty crap day after watching the movie Signs (2002) A bit of weed, a strange phone call for a guy named Kevin and his mom demanding he fix the piece of a door.

The movie mostly follows Jeff through his day as he takes a bus to get some glue but is interrupted to play some basketball, smoke more weed, gets mugged. He also helps his brother when he suspects his wife may be cheating on him. Turns out finding your destiny isn’t easy.

The movie is slow and not very action oriented and quite honestly is not for most people. I thought it was fun and interesting and I enjoyed it, but I don’t think there is much here for your average movie fan looking for some action. It relies heavily on the person watching wanting to sit and think about the bigger things in life as well as which honestly isn’t what most people want to do. I do suggest you watch it regardless tho. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Most Likely To Murder (2018)

Most Likely to murder is the typical story of the king of the school returning home to find out he isn’t really the king any longer. Billy’s (Adam Pally) old friends hate him, his old fling hates him, really only his best friend is happy to see him. Who can blame them tho, he is trapped in high school to the point he even came home and expected to cruise around in the same car.

When Billy runs into Kara (Rachel Bloom) and discovers she may or may not be dating the guy he used to bully, Lowell (Vincent Kartheiser) he kind of looses it a bit, goes on a drinking bender and witnesses a murder he attempts to prove that Lowell’s mom died not on accident, but because is former torture target is the weirdo he always claimed he was.

The movie is at times honestly cringe worthy with how billy behaves and comes off and others the movie does an amazing job showing how people obsessed with high school being the best time of their lives can truly lose sight of how times and people change even when they do not. The movie isn’t bad by any stretch but it would hardly be fair to call this a masterpiece. It isn’t a great comedy, but it is an interesting one. It isn’t for everyone but it is enjoyable, best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Masterminds (2016)

Masterminds starring Zach Galifinakis and Kristin Wiig is the story of a robbery gone right believe it or not. A cool $17 million and a trip to Mexico. The problem is after David (Zach) is sent to Mexico before meeting up with Kelly (Kristin) whom has no intention of going there he is betrayed by Steve (Owen Wilson) and the feds are now after him.

Things get worse for David when Steve sends an assassin, Mike (Jason Sudeikis). Luckily for him the fake name they used for Dave happens to be Mike McKinney. Yes they used the assassins name and life as his alias. In a weird twist tho they become friends.

The movie itself is pretty solid but isn’t great. The most interesting thing about it tho, is it is actually based on a true story and to this day around $2 million dollars of the $17 million in the Loomis Fargo  Bank heist is still missing. Feel free to check this one out, if only just for the story. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Daddy’s Home 2 (2007)

Daddy’s Home 2 is a rather odd movie for me. The movie has a ton of talent with Mark Wahlberg, Will Ferrell,Mell Gibson and John Lithgow. The movie weirdly tho bounces between a by the numbers comedy and a hilarious comedy. The acting as you would expect is always top-notch however.

The story is quite simple. Take two families, and 2 grandparents with mixed style of parenting and stick them in a cabin and watch as things progress. The issue is the laughs that exist are amazing, they just come few and far between. There isn’t anything wrong with the story or anything like that it is just hit and miss with the script.

There are some memorable moments tho, for example the hunting scene is one of my favorite scenes in recent memory and it was quite hilarious when Wills character cut down a cell phone tower instead of a tree. The movie isn’t truly bad, it just isn’t as good as one would expect. Best wishes, and may the gaming gods bring you glory.
