Old Millennial reviews Ghostbusters Frozen Empire

Review: Overstuffed ‘Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire’ fails to justify its existence

Trying to appease all types of fans and regular moviegoers, the new “Ghostbusters” film, subtitled “Frozen Empire,” introduces a half-dozen decent ideas and fails to deliver on any of them. Without divulging spoilers, “Frozen Empire” assembles 12 different characters for a finale in which only two of them have anything to do. Everyone else just […]

Old Millennial Movie Review: Drive Away Dolls

Review: ‘Drive-Away Dolls’ a diverting, ‘Diet-Coen’ road movie

The Coen Brothers make movies unlike most everything on the market. Even then, their filmography can be splintered into distinct flavor types, from something as gripping and serious as “No Country for Old Men” to the absurdist worlds of “Raising Arizona” and “The Big Lebowski.” After the release of their Western anthology film, “The Ballad

Beverly Hills Cop

Beverly Hills Cop – 1984 – ep105

If you get room service delivered to your car while you’re on a stakeout, chances are you’re about to get a banana in your tailpipe. It’s another masterful Eddie Murphy performance in the action-comedy “Beverly Hills Cop.” Operating in a fairly standard cop procedural plot, Murphy elevates every scene as the impulsive, insubordinate and fast-talking

Jurassic Park-3

Jurassic Park III – ep103 – 2001

Raptors speak! Kinda. “Jurassic Park III” gets a lot of grief for being silly, short and a little too far removed from the majesty and grandeur of the Steven Spielberg-directed efforts. But that’s kinda why we like it! “Jurassic Park III” just wants to be a breezy thrill machine, and it will do whatever it

Chasing Amy – ep 99 – 1997

Well would you look at this morose *expletive deleted* right here. Smells like someone *expletive deleted* in your cereal. It’s important to remember just how well-received “Chasing Amy” was back in 1997. Writer/director Kevin Smith followed his breakthrough debut “Clerks” with the then-ignored “Mallrats.” Smith scaled back for a relationship drama about Holden McNeil (Ben

Screch-Spaghetti

Screech’s Spaghetti Sauce – ep12 – Saved by the Bell to the Max – S4E3

“The sauce-a you can have, but the secret? She’s A MINE!” Another “Saved by the Bell” episode that begins one way and takes a hard turn into another plotline entirely. The gang produces a cable access news broadcast, but Screech’s cooking segment inexplicably sparks a sensation around Bayside. He also makes incredible spaghetti sauce, and

Matilda – ep77 – 1996

“Listen you little wiseacre. I’m smart; you’re dumb. I’m big; you’re little. I’m right; you’re wrong. And there’s nothing you can do about it.” – Parents to their kids during the 2020 quarantine. Actually, that’s a Danny DeVito rant from “Matilda,” a charming movie adaptation of the Roald Dahl children’s book. Most of the adults

Tori-Saved by the Bell

Show Continuity – Saved by the Bell to the Max – ep05

“We need Doc Brown to sort out the timelines of this show.” – Jonah Anderson, world’s foremost expert on “Saved by the Bell.” The “Saved by the Bell” continuity is… confusing. Never mind the fact the powers-that-be want you to think “Good Morning Miss Bliss” is the first season of the show (it isn’t). Things
