This week I review the Neon’s new sci-fi thriller, “Possessor: Uncut” and Sofia Coppola’s new comedy, “On the Rocks”. Both entertaining films, but one satisfies more than the other. Watch the review below to find out which movie you should see this weekend.
“Possessor: Uncut” is playing in select theaters now.
“On the Rocks” is playing in select theaters now and will be available on Apple-TV October 23.
I’ve got a couple of new film reviews for ya! First is “The High Note”, another mentor/mentee film that makes the most of its’ cast and should hit the right note with its’ audience.
Then there is the new Amazon Studios movie, “The Vast of Night”, which plays as a wonderful homage to “The Twilight Zone”. This film will satisfy that sci-fi itch with suspense, mystery, wonder and nostalgia.
“The High Note” is available on various On Demand platforms May 29.
“The Vast of Night” is available on Amazon Prime May 29.
“The Half of It” is a very interesting take on the classic “Cyrano de Bergerac”. Set in Washington state instead of France and replacing the soldiers and nobles with high school students, “The Half of It” looks like another Netflix winner.
Check out my review of the new Netflix drama and the DVD/Blu-Ray release of “Underwater”.
“The Half of It” is available on Netflix May 1.
“Underwater” is available on Blu-Ray/DVD/Digital
Well, I should have known a film released in January was not going to stand a chance. But, “Underwater” had no business being made.
This film is basically a knock off underwater version of “Alien”. Its completely derivative script offers nothing new or worth watching. Even their semi all-star cast featuring Kristen Stewart, T.J. Miller, and Vincent Cassel can’t save this sinking ship.
The film is set seven miles beneath the ocean’s surface. Down there, aquatic researchers who work for a rich mining drill company are forced to reach the surface after an unexpected earthquake destroys their rig and somehow unleashes unspecified creatures with intent to kill. See, it already sounds lame.
Our protagonist is Norah (Stewart), the mechanical engineer. Aka the Ripley. She is a badass and she manages to do a lot of her heavy lifting in just a sports bra and undies. But, don’t discredit K-Stews performance. She has grown a lot as an actress these past few years and she was honestly my favorite part of the film.
The same can’t be said about T.J. Miller’s character Paul. What was intended to be comic relief, became an awkward dude with a stuffed animal who told bad jokes. As for the rest of the cast, they were forgettable due to a script that gave no real background or depth to its characters.
The visuals were solid, but the CGI of the underwater monsters were mediocre. At times the sandy water made it hard to see them when we really needed to see them. And don’t get me started on that damn audio. I’m not sure if it was the loud score or the water, but it’s difficult to understand the cast members about 50% of the time.
I’ll give the film points on its production design and even some creative direction by William Eubank. He does make an effort to try and intensify the situation through his unique and startling shots. However, none of his endearing camera work makes up for the disaster that is “Underwater.”
Save your money and just go watch any of the current, award nominated movies.
Rating: 2/5
“Underwater” opens in theaters January 10.

Dion is an eight year old boy who has just discovered he has super powers. His mother, Nicole (Alisha Wainwright), is a widowed single mom who’s learning how to best raise her son and protect him from a mysterious villain. “Raising Dion” is a thrilling, family sci-fi/drama premiering on Netflix October 4. Alisha Wainwright and Jason Ritter join Susan Stephens to talk about the show.
Leo (Masataka Kubota) is a young boxer who lacks almost any kind of emotion, even when he wins a match. But when he discovers he doesn’t have much time left to live; an unexpected chain of events happens that involve drugs, the Yakuza, corrupt cops, and Monica- a female escort who is need of a hero. It’s a hell of night to say the least.
I’ll admit, this was my first Miike film and I was told this one was tame in comparison to his other movies like “Audition” and “13 Assassins”. However, “tame” isn’t the word I would use to describe this movie. It’s an action packed bone crushing, head cutting, blood fest!
Not only was I entertained by the graphic violence, but the screenplay is hilarious. The film is very self-aware of how comical this chaotic situation has gotten. It’s John Wick meets Guy Ritchie in Japan! I highly recommend this one.
Rating: 4/5
Oh man this movie was gross! I just have to start by saying, it’s been a while since a film made me physically gag, and I’m still not certain if that’s a good or bad thing. I guess I can say “The Golden Glove” is affective.
“The Golden Glove is about Fritz Honka (Jonas Dassler), the serial killer who murdered four elderly prostitutes in Germany during the 1970’s. Fritz isn’t the most appealing man to look at. He lives like a slob, and his murders are gruesome. There are many reasons why this film will have your stomachs churning. Beginning with the opening scene. Let’s just say it sets the tone perfectly for what you’re about to endure for the next two hours.
The film has already received a lot of backlash for being too vile, and unnecessarily disgusting. Though Honka’s actions are vile, how else would you have a film about this psychotic murder portrayed?
“The Golden Glove” will not be everyone’s cup of tea. It’s an unforgettable one and done for myself. I can’t say I enjoyed watching this film, but I’m pretty sure my reactions throughout the movie were probably what the filmmaker was going for. So in that sense, I can respect this movie.
Rating: 3/5
Yes, the title of the film “Butt Boy” insinuates what you’re probably thinking. This film is about a man, Chip (Tyler Cornack), who goes in for his first prostate examine and discovers he likes it more than he expected. Suddenly a little boy has gone missing, and the connection between the two instances will have you dumbfounded.
I hate to say that I was so disappointed in this film. The premise and the beginning had me sucked in, but the second half of the film went straight to shit (pun intended). The acting is mediocre. And though the plot is unique, it’s far too ridiculous to even enjoy.
With the right mind set, “Butt Boy” could appeal to a particular audience. Remind yourself that this is more of a sci-fi comedy, and maybe you’ll gain some entertainment value.
Rating: 2/5
The sleepy town of Hawkins, Indiana …and Upside Down… are back! And fans of Stranger Things can finally exhale on July 4 when the Netflix hit returns for season three. I had a chance to sit down with with David Harbour (Sheriff Hopper) and talk about the hit series and his Texas roots.
“Stranger Things” Season 3 releases on Netflix July 4!
The indie sci-fi, drama “Kin” follows a recently released ex-con (Jack Reynor), and his adopted teenage brother (Miles Truitt) as they are forced to go on the run from vengeful criminals. Luckily they are armed with a powerful weapon of mysterious origin as their only protection.
I sat down with the directors of the film, Josh and Jonathan Baker, to discuss the movie. We talked about characters, being “what makes a real man”, what they’ve taught each other, and more!
It’s the most anticipated film of the year. Divergent, starring Shailene Woodley (The Spectacular Now) and Theo James (Underworld: Awakening) is sure to have as much success as The Hunger Games and Twilight trilogies.
The first installment of the saga is set in a futuristic Chicago where people are divided into five distinct factions based on their personalities. Tris (Woodley) discovers that she is Divergent, meaning she does not fit into any of the factions; and soon discovers that in order to stay alive she must hide in a faction. The only problem is she chooses the most physically challenging one, Dauntless meaning “the brave.” As she struggles and fights through most of the film to prove herself to her new faction, she encounters many obstacles. This includes the hard-headed, tough leader Eric (Jai Courtney) and a non-stop competitive bully, Peter (Miles Teller). While training for Dauntless, Tris uncovers a horrifying plot forming in her seemingly perfect society.
The film held a special premiere in Dallas a couple weeks back. The “bad boys” themselves, Miles Teller and Jai Courtney, walked the red carpet and took pictures with many extremely enthusiastic Divergent fans. The next morning I got a chance to sit down with the two stars at Dallas’ Ritz Carlton Hotel to discuss the movie, the fans, and their fears. Now don’t be fooled by the characters they play. Their kindness and dry sense of humor made for one hilarious interview.
Miles Teller and Jai Courtney: “Divergent” Video Interview
I have to give you guys props for last night on the red carpet. You handled your fans really well. I mean right when you (pointing to Miles) walked in, I saw you take a picture with a girl and she just grabbed your face and kissed you on the cheek.
Miles: “Yeah, yeah…”
Jai: “He’s use to that though; that happens all the time.”
Miles: “Yeah that’s, uh, you know, that’s a part of the business when you’re a heart throb (Jai laughs)… No. This one girl was like can I touch your hair? And I was like, yeah, sure. And she was like “oh God!” (Pulls hair and shakes head aggressively) Alright, so now I know if somebody asks “can I touch your hair?” I’m going to say “no.” So, like, you learn as you go. It’s hard in the moment though. It’s like; you (points to Jai) kissed a girl last night. You kissed a girl on the cheek, you told me.”
Jai: “I was kissing girls all over the place. It’s a free country.”
Miles: “Yeah, it’s a free country (laughs).”
Clearly your fans are very bold. What’s the boldest thing so far on this tour that a fan has done to you guys?
Miles: “Well this is our first stop on the tour…”
Jai: “Yeah that was it. You saw all of it. But it’s only going to get bolder from here.”
Miles: “…but teenage girls, they can be aggressive. I see One Direction videos, they’re…I mean no I don’t, (whispers) love them, Harry Style’s is my fav.” (Jai laughs)
Well you two play some not so nice characters in this movie. But I’d say the biggest “jerk moment” from both of y’all is probably when Eric had Peter beat up Tris.
Jai: “Woah!”
Miles: “Well that’s a little; I mean it’s not really revealed like that.”
Jai: “I mean, it’s part of the training. I didn’t have Peter beat up Tris.”
Miles: “Yeah.”
I mean you basically set it up.
Miles: “Oh my God, obviously she’s on Tris’ side were not going to win this argument.”
Jai: “You’ve misinterpreted things grossly.”
Miles: “I mean we’re just trying to survive Dauntless; is all we’re trying to do.”
Jai: “It’s a training exercise. She’s going to face tougher guys than Peter out there in the real world.”
Miles: “Yeah, I mean not tougher, but (Miles takes at a tough man sniff) taller.”
Jai: “Yeah, taller.”
So obviously that scene wasn’t hard for you guys to shoot at all then?
Jai: Morally? No (Shakes head).
Miles: “Well I mean Shai, at first; they did it with Shailene’s stunt double. And they said look three guys grab her. And they told the stunt double to; you know, kick and do all that. And she beat the crap out of these three dudes. So I was nervous to get in there. But then they said, yo, choke Shailene out. And I was, like, get in here. Come to daddy. So, you know, just a little bit of that.”
The funny thing is that there are some fans that want Peter and Tris together, even though he’s so horrible to her.
Miles: “I know right?”
And I think that stems from a girl wanting a bad boy still. Why do you guys think girls want the bad guy, even when they’re so horrible to them?
Miles: “I mean we’re more exciting. You know, like, nice is very cliché. You want a nice guy to go to the donut shop. If you want a bad boy, you better be able to role with the punches. (Jai laughs) We’re sexy. We look good in leather.
Jai: “Right?” (Looks to me)
Miles: “You tell me. What are you into? Do you like a bad boy?”
I think I like a… well there is an excitement to them, but I prefer a gentleman, and you can be a bad boy as long as you’re a gentleman.
Jai: “You can be a bad boy and a gentleman.”
Miles: “Right, well I think that girls think that they can make a bad guy change. I think for girls that’s the challenge. But most of the time, they don’t change. But I’d love for Peter and Tris to hook up.”
I think I’d like to see that.
Jai: “Yeah I’d watch that.”
Miles: “Yeah, right?”
We get to see a lot of the characters greatest fears in this movie, and like Four said, “Everybody is afraid of something.” So what is something that you guys are afraid of?
Jai: “I’m not much into arachnidan.”
Miles: “What is, is that a spider?
Jai: “Yeah, Not into spiders.”
Miles: “Spiders or snakes, what would freak you out more? Cause there’s two different movies about them?”
Jai: “See snakes don’t freak me out. I don’t want to get bitten by one, but like I would hold one.”
Miles: “You would hold one? You’re cool with that? What about sharks, great white sharks?”
Jai: “Grew up wrestling them dude.”
You (To Jai) are a bad boy.
Jai: “You know it.” (Miles laughs)
Miles: I don’t like cats, I’m not afraid of them…
Jai: “Cats suck! I’m with you on that.”
Miles: “…I’m allergic to them. I feel like a cat is, like, plotting to kill me.”
Jai: “We’re going to lose fans here.”
Miles: “Were going to lose our cat audience here. That’s fine; we got our dog audience…Oh, losing my youth! I’m afraid, I mean, I’m not afraid of getting old.”
Jai: “You’re getting old man.”
Miles: “Dude, you’re like 32 years-old man.”
Jai: “We’re the same age brother.”
Miles: “No we’re not!”
Jai: “Yes, we are (Laughs).”
Miles: “There’s no way this (Points to himself) is the same age, man. Look at you.”
Jai: “He can’t come to grips with that.”
To set the record straight, both Miles and Jai are 27 years-old.
Divergent hits theaters March 21.
