The Small Screen Diaries: 08/13/26

John Stark

TV Shows Watched: Citadel: Season 2 (Amazon) with audio description, Stranger Things: Tales From 85 (Netflix) with audio description, Life Larry and the Pursuit Of Unhappyness: S1E6 (HBO MAX) and Who Wants To Be A Millionaire: S5E3 (Disney Plus) with audio description Citadel- I did review this yesterday, so check it out. Also, if you were thinking about watching the second season of Citadel, and have pushed it down your watchlist, move it up before someone ruins that finale for you. Jaw dropped. I couldn’t go enough into it in my review, but the show takes a really big swing … Continue reading The Small Screen Diaries: 08/13/26

A Real Pain

John Stark

A Real Pain- Jesse Eisenberg and Kieran Culkin Are A Perfect Pairing Quick Take: This viewing was without audio description, as I was provided a screener for this title. Jesse Eisenberg wrote, directed, and stars in one of the best films of the year. It is such a simple film, and the second this year with this theme. eisenberg and Kieran Culkin play cousins who are finally getting around to taking a trip to Poland that their recently deceased Grandmother wanted them to take, so they can see where she grew up under Nazi occupation. Eisenberg and Culkin bounce off … Continue reading A Real Pain

Sasquatch Sunset

John Stark

You know, I appreciate a good shot in the dark every once in a while. A filmmaker who just is willing to go completely outside of the box, building himself a new box, and doing his own thing. You need to understand that Sasquatch Sunset is not for everyone. It just isn’t. But, what it is, is certainly not derivative. It isn’t another superhero movie, or a sequel, or a remake. It’s not a prequel. It is an original work through and through, and there has to be something said for that. At the end of the day, this is … Continue reading Sasquatch Sunset

Vivarium

John Stark

where I Watched It: Amazon English Audio Description Available?: Yes Description Provided by: SkyNet Yes, this film has audio description narrated by Terminators, and it’s not a bad film. ultimately, I’m going to recommend a film to you that has robodescription. I’m sorry about that. The truth is, Vivarium is a dish best served with as little knowledge as humanly possible. I chose this film due to the fact that the many film message board/groups I’m in, this title comes up as being “one of the scariest… EVER.” Ever is a bit of a stretch, but it’s creative and inventive … Continue reading Vivarium

Movie Review: Now You See Me

John Stark

STARRING: Mark Ruffalo, Jesse Eisenberg, Woody Harrelson, Isla Fisher, Dave Franco, Morgan Freeman, Melanie Laurent, Michael Caine, Michael Kelly, Common WRITTEN BY: Ed Solomon and Boaz Yakin DIRECTED BY: Louis Leterrier From the Director of Clash Of The Titans is not really a good way to entice people into thinking your movie is intelligent. I really enjoyed the trailers to Now You See Me, and thought it might be a sleeper hit of the summer. Then, some reviews trickled in, and it seemed like a truly divisive movie. Love It Or Hate It. The film now sits at a lowsy … Continue reading Movie Review: Now You See Me
