    Godzilla Minus One

    ★★★★★

    Incredible!

    Exceeded my expectations. Godzilla Minus One is closest in DNA to the original 1954 film and it goes to show that 70 years later the formula can still be as effective. Post-war nuclear warfare fears mixed with PTSD and dealing with the fallout by the way of a giant kaiju breathing heat rays all over the show.
    Big G is absolutely menacing in this, a true force of nature that leaves little room for hope. This is easily top-tier…

    Time Addicts

    ★★★★

    Time Addicts is an absolute riot! Fucking hilarious from start to finish and surprisingly emotional. Following two crack addicts who while robbing a guy, decide to give the stolen crack a go and end up traveling through time. The consequences are laugh-out-loud funny as are the two leads. It's a real mash of genres with Aussie sensibilities and is filmed in a way that begs to be seen on a big screen.

    Academy Award goes to the word cunt.

    Thunderbolt

    ★★★★

    Jackie Chan's boner for Mitsubishi Motors reaches its climax in this fuel-driven action film that has the perfect mix of martial arts and motor vehicle racing. After watching this all I can think of is, "How the hell has Jackie Chan not found his way into the Fast And The Furious franchise driving a souped-up Misti Evo!?!?". There's only one chance left to fix this!

    The action is a little choppy in Thunderbolt due to Chan having an injury that…

    Dicks: The Musical

    ★★★½

    A24 takes a shot at doing a musical and brings us one of the most fucked up versions of Parent Trap you've ever set your eyes on. I was expecting this to be cude being made by the same guy that brought us Borat but this is on a whole other level.

    You are either going to love this or hate it with your very core, I laughed my ass off the whole way through and I can't help but…

    The McPherson Tape

    ★★

    This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.

    This scared the shit out of me when I was 7 years old, now it just seems painfully slow. What family stumbles upon an alien space ship, runs home in a panic then decides to play cards?!? Then they realise the aliens are outside their house so they decide to play cards?!?!?! Then they notice the alien they killed and put in their bedroom is missing SO THEY GO AND FUCKING PLAY CARDS?!?!?!?!?

    Mortal Kombat

    ★★★½

    An Outworld man who sucks souls to make his way in life wants to come live in cool old Earthrealm. He sends his best minions; a chill guy; a girl with a great smile and a four-armed muscle boy to go and sort out Earth's greatest warriors including; a MMA fighter who is good at being beat up; an armless man and and guy that wears a hat.

    I understand the motives of the Outworlders as Outworld sucks hard, it…
