Venom is nothing spectacular. The acting is fine. The story is mediocre but not without charm. The movie felt cliched at times but it also didn’t bore me or fill me with silent rage. It was an absolutely fine movie that was worth it to watch streaming.

Thoughts on Dungeons and Dragons: Honor Among Thieves
Dungeons and Dragons: Honor Among Thieves is a charming movie. The movie feels genuine in its love of the D&D world. The characters have a sweet chemistry which is good. The story itself is fairly basic, however, the overall charm of the characters and the easter eggs made for an entertaining watch. Check it out if you enjoy quirky actiom in a fantasy realm. If you enjoy D&D, it is a must see.

Thoughts on Ant-man And Wasp: Quantumania
Ant-man and Wasp: Quantumania is the third Ant-man movie. As a wholenitnis fine but forgettable. It is genuinely hard to care about the MCU at this point. It was a fine movie to watch on streaming, but I am glad I didn’t pay theater prices. It’s just a little disappointing.

Thoughts on The Menu
The Menu is a dark comedy that is very good. The acting is fantastic. The cinematography is stunning. While there are some violent moments, the script elevates the subject matter through witty satire. It’s definitely worth watching if you enjoy a dark comedy or cooking shows.

Thought on The Curse of Bridge Hollow
The Curse of Bridge Hollow is a Netflix Halloween movie. The plot is reminiscent of Goosebumps. The characters do the best they can with a hackneyed script. Kids might like the safe scares this movie offers. I get the feeling the director encouraged improv during takes. It has all the charm of an Asylum movie.

Thoughts on Eli
Eli is a ghost story that has moments of clever scares. It is a fairly typical story that goes in a weird direction at the third act. It jumps the rails at the end and goes straight into schlock town. It is a fairly forgettable movie, save the bizarre twist. I’d miss it unless you are out of ideas.
Thoughts in The Wretched
The Wretched is an interesting horror movie. At the surface it has a premise that is pretty cliche. However, atmosphere, decenct acting, and chilling cinematography make this movie stand-out. It is a good movie with a satisfying twist. While not perfect, it is certainly worth a watch.
