Thoughts in Renfield

 Renfield is a dark comedy about Dracula’s familiar. It has fun performances by Nicholas Hoult and Nicolas Cage. The story has some weak spots but in terms of the tone of the movie it all works to make the movie fun. It won’t win awards but it was entertaining, at the very least. Check it out if you like horror and dark comedy.

Thoughts on Inside Out 2

 Inside Out 2 is a sequel to the Pixar film, Inside Out. The story is a good follow up to the first film. The characters show growth and the story is compelling. The addition of new emotions really help create a relevant and poignant story of a growing girl who is coming to terms with puberty. Check it out if you liked the first film.

Thoughts on Cook Off!

 Cook Off! is the 2017 mockumentary. If a Christopher Guest movie and Reno 911 had a baby it would look like this. It has some funny moments and clever characters. It’s worth checking out. It doesn’t have a big budget, but it’s got aome good comedic charm.
