Fly Me To The Moon

John Stark

Fly Me To The Moon (Apple Plus)- Scarlett Johansson Faked The Moon Landing! Quick Take: I’m one of the few, the proud, the rare people who didn’t hate myself after watching this. It isn’t the best film Apple put out in 2024, but it certainly isn’t the worst. The audio description is also pretty nice, really helping to sell the attempt to make Channing Tatum look more… like he’s intelligent. Scarlett Johansson plays an advertising guru who is recruited by a clandestine government official (Woody Harrelson) to help “sell NASA” so it can keep getting funding, ultimately leading to her … Continue reading Fly Me To The Moon

Blink Twice

John Stark

Blink Twice- A Strong Directorial Debut From Zoe Kravitz Quick Take: A few actors had really strong directorial debuts in 2024. dev Patel ((Monkey Man) and Anna Kendrick (Woman of The Hour) both proved they have potential, but I was most impressed with Zoey kravitz and her work on the thriller Blink Twice. What a difficult audio description track to write. It is also a hard movie to review, as it gets twisty, and I want you to watch it without anything being spoiled. loosely, the film centers on a waitress who catches the eye of a tech millionaire, and … Continue reading Blink Twice

Magic Mike’s Last Dance

John Stark

Where I Watched It: MAX English Audio Description?: Yes Lots of missed opportunities here. I really don’t know why Steven Soderbergh is back in the director’s chair, but there’s something very disconcerting about the once revered director saying No to the second film, but being hungry enough to do the third. This man directed sex, lies, and videotape, Out of Sight, Erin Brockovich, Traffic, and knew making George Clooney be Danny Ocean was a great idea. The fact that he came back for what is essentially the Tokyo Drift of the franchise is disappointing. Last Dance revolves around the idea … Continue reading Magic Mike’s Last Dance

Magic Mike

John Stark

Where I Watched it: HBo MAX English Audio Description Provided By: The Media Access group Narrated by Gale Lee Hideman Not my first rodeo with Magic Mike. I’m certain there’s a review on here from back when I could see, which is a totally different experience. While I have spent the past few years remembering magic Mike as being mediocre at best, on the rewatch I actually found that I enjoyed it a lot more than I remembered. I decided to dive back into this franchise because i thought Magic Mike’s last Dance would have a 45 day window. I … Continue reading Magic Mike

Dog

John Stark

Where I Watched It: VOD Description Provided By: Deluxe What is there to say about a film named Dog? Like, is it going to start a franchise of really blunt and obviously titled films? is Cat next? Horse? Technically, Nicolas Cage took Pig off the table last year. Perhaps, Dog is the spiritual sequel to Pig, but based on the extreme differences in style, I’m going to go with no. Channing Tatum stars here as a soldier with some unresolved PTSD who sees no future for himself other than one where he’s allowed to return to combat. He tries everything, … Continue reading Dog

The Lost City

John Stark

Starring: Sandra Bullock, Channing Tatum, Daniel Radcliffe, Brad Pitt, Divine Joy Randolph, and Oscar Nunez. Directed By: Aaron and Adam May Where I Watched It: Paramount Plus English Audio Description Available?: Yes Narrated By: Darren Polis The Plot: Did you see Romancing The Stone? Well… Sandra Bullock is an author who would much rather be writing books about history, but no one would read those, so she incorporates her knowledge into trashy romance novels that are a huge hit, due in part to her cover model (Tatum), who she assumes is an idiot. But when her newest book starts talking … Continue reading The Lost City

Guy (Reynolds) is a non-playable character inside a open world video game eerily similar to Grand Theft Auto online, and after he has a run in with a player known as Molotov Girl (Jodi Comer), he becomes … Continue reading Free Guy
