Gigli

Two mobsters meet and form an intimate connection, in this incredible, heartwarming, awe-inspiring love story for the ages. After I saw The Room (which I reviewed here), I decided to tackle this next. It’s another movie I’d been meaning to

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

Released: 2007 Turmoil engulfs Hogwarts as the Dark Lord rises to power, and Minister of Magic Cornelius Fudge lets his misplaced suspicions of Dumbledore get the better of him. A fun fact. This is the only Harry Potter film I

Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban

Released: 2004 Harry has come a long way already, but his struggles are far from over. Prisoner of Azkaban marks a change in tone and style from the first two films. It also moves along at a quicker pace; we

The Room (Part I)

Released: 2003 A look at the Tommy Wiseau-directed masterpiece. Ah, yes, The Room. One of the most popular candidates for the ‘Worst Movie Ever’ title. At the same time, it’s also one of the most popular candidates for the ‘So

Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets

Released: 2002 Warning! Not a movie for people with arachnophobia or ophidiophobia. My Harry Potter overview continues today with the second installment, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. While I enjoyed Philosopher’s Stone when it first came out, it

Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone

Released: 2001 A look at the first film in a very successful series. All these years later, how well does it hold up? Is there anything I can say about Harry Potter that hasn’t already been said? Probably not. But

Harry Potter and the Cursed Child

Released: 2016 A new Harry Potter story after all these years! But was it worth the wait? I can remember my father reading Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone to me when I was maybe eight or nine — way
