Thoughts on Halloween Kills

 Halloween Kills is fine for a Halloween sequel. Halloween movies are notorious for being messy and not very great, so the bar is fairly low. I enjoyed the continuing of the night from the previous movie. The acting is good and the kills are entertaining. The hamfisted social commentary is weak. Still, it is not the worst of the franchise. See it if you enjoyed the previous film or you are a fan of the Halloween franchise.

Thoughts on Dune

 Dune is an epic movie. The sets and the cinematography create a very unique environment for the story to take place. The acting is good and the story itself is entertaining. The only problem I have is that you can sometimes feel the movies runtime. Plus, because it’s only part 1 the story feels incomplete. See it if you like your sci-fi slow and atmospheric.

Thoughts on Black Widow

 Black Widow is a fine super hero movie. The story itself and the acting is fine. The action sequences are a bit phony looking and make the threats seem a lot tamer than if the hits and explosions had any impact on the character. It is not bad but it is also not very memorable. See it if you are curious about a lost chapter in the MCU.
