January 2022

Ozark Season 4 — Meh.  Maybe a 2 year wait killed the momentum.

The Eternal Sea — Why was Sterling Hayden a star?

The Empty Man — Is it horror?  A mystery?  A procedural?  A non-dairy creamer?  Somehow it comes together and works.

Schitt’s Creek Season 1 — Just didn’t grab me.  If it kept Eugene Levy from making more American Pie movies, it served a purpose.

Till Death — Fun story and good performance by Megan Fox.  No, really.

Mean Creek — Good stuff.

Scream — If this movie were Orson Welles’ life, the first 10 minutes were Citizen Kane.

Commando — Classic!

Aliens — Classic!

All About Eve — Classic without the !

The Boy Behind the Door — Thriller with kids outsmarting adults.  Great, unlike every sit-com ever with that trope.

Don’t Look Up — Fine, but an almanac of squandered potential.  Worth it for the huge laugh at the very end.

It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia Season 15 — Good, but really, do we need any more?
