The Old Ways looks slick, has some ideas, and has some interesting scenes. Unfortunately, it doesn't deliver on some of the great ideas it brings up. A stronger actress and a deeper dive into the demons and this culture would have saved this from mediocrity.

Aliens (1986) has it all. The writing, directing, acting, sound effects, and the production design are all exceptional. This is a must see classic that is still just as effective and thrilling 35 years later.

Though there are many great aspects of Southern Comfort (1981), such as the atmosphere, music, and lead acting, the narrative is continuously propelled by poor decision making from the characters, making it difficult for us to get invested.

Let Him Go (2020) looks beautiful and Diane Lane and Kevin Costner give subtle, Oscar worthy performances, but questionable character decisions and and a script too afraid to delve into grey areas hold this movie back from being great.

Though the characters are iconic, this first of the trilogy seems a bit dated now, and the jokes don't hit as hard as they did when we were younger. Maybe skip this one and go straight to the second installment?

Though modern moviegoers may find the pacing a bit slow, The Verdict will have plenty of things for anybody to enjoy. Director Sidney Lumet, writer David Mamet, and star Paul Newman are all at the top of their games. The cast of amazing supporting actors are just icing on the cake.

Tenacious D in the Pick of Destiny is a hilariously good time if you are the right audience. Fans of Tenacious D the band, old-school rock, or low-brow stoner comedy will love every minute of it. Others might find it to be an unfunny chore to sit through.

Top Gun has lots of issues, there's no denying it, but the '80s aesthetic, the iconic dialogue, and the fantastic soundtrack more than make up for its faults. This is essential viewing for any fan of Tom Cruise, Tony Scott, or '80s action movies.

Although The Mummy (1999) is far different from it's classic movie monster origins, it carves its own path by being a thrilling action adventure movie. The actors are all superb, the sets and locations are intriguing, and the CG remains impressive and effective to this day.

We can't deny it, Armageddon (1998) is a loud, stupid, silly, AWFUL movie. That being said, the actors play their parts well, a lot of the humor works, the non-stop action makes the time fly by, and you're lying if you claim you didn't cry at least once during it. The point is, it's amazing.
