Saw: The Final Chapter

John Stark

I don’t immediately want to kick off a review with a spoiler, but thank God, it’s over. I mean, it’s not, because they made three more after this, but Saw: The Final Chapter finally decided it was time to jettison Hoffman from the franchise, something they toyed with in the previous film and sadly chickened out on. So in the final installment of what had basically become Saw: Hoffman Boogaloo, we get our least interesting Jigsaw targeting Jill for revenge. Not that this series has ever cared much about anyone’s fate, or saving the good ones, but considering Jill actually … Continue reading Saw: The Final Chapter

Twister

John Stark

Sometimes I feel bad for casual readers. They get really excited that I’m reviewing the 1996 disaster hit Twister, and then they get this. I hate to break it to you, but this is not really a review. As a blind film critic, I’m constantly challenging companies to provide more accessibility, especially where it makes sense. As companies continue to increase their prices, rather unwarranted since they really aren’t delivering more expensive content, the question I have is will it result in more accessibility? what are you going to do for me when I already pay more for a service … Continue reading Twister

The Ministry Of ungentlemanly Warfare

John Stark

Guy Ritchie is one of those directors that I likely have seen 75% of their work. I know there are a few titles I’d have to cram if I was going to rank his body of work, but I used to be a big fan. even when he started to get commercialized, I still enjoyed his Sherlock Holmes movies. but, he’s not perfect, and some of his films just lack that Lock, Stock flair that attracted us to him in the first place. that is not the problem with The Ministry Of Ungentlemanly Warfare, an action comedy that feels like … Continue reading The Ministry Of ungentlemanly Warfare

I wish they had a better name for that. For it to be as freakishly powerful as it supposedly is, it should pack a scarier punch. Not everyone has loved this entry, and for various reasons. I think we’ve come to expect a lot from these … Continue reading Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning Part 1
