The crime comedy RIFF RAFF doesn't seem like it's getting a lot of promotion, despite starring Bill Murray, Pete Davidson, Jennifer Coolidge, Gabrielle Union, Lewis Pullman, and Ed Harris. It hits theaters this weekend. Check out my review here: aisleseat.com/riff-raff.html #filmsky

When it was released in theaters, I talked my best friend into going with me to see ICE PRINCESS because I thought his suffering would be amusing. Both of us were pleasantly surprised by how good it is. And Michelle Trachtenberg's performance was a big reason why it was good.

How tragic. It's always sad to hear about someone passing at such a young age. abcnews.go.com/GMA/Culture/...

NO ADDRESS is a movie about homelessness that brings together singer Ashanti, Beverly D'Angelo, BLOODRAYNE's Kristanna Loken, and EXTREME MAKEOVER: HOME EDITION host Ty Pennington. And if you think *that's* bizarre, wait until you hear about the rest of it. My review: aisleseat.com/no-address.h...

Movie You Probably Forgot Existed: www.imdb.com/title/tt0116...

I had no idea they were ever a couple.

VENOM: THE LAST DANCE is now streaming on Netflix. This is more of a warning than a recommendation.

I wrote about GOODFELLAS, NATIONAL LAMPOON'S VACATION, THE LONG KISS GOODNIGHT, and other movies that underwent significant changes after being screened for test audiences. www.ranker.com/list/times-t...

Wrote most of a review for a movie I thought opened this Friday, only to discover it actually opens four weeks from now.

Wow, they actually found a way to make the idea of a Barney movie sound cool. www.thewrap.com/ayo-edebiri-...

I did not realize a director needed to win an Oscar in order for the actors in his movies to win one. 🤦‍♂️

Mood:

STAR WARS: EPISODE III - REVENGE OF THE SITH is returning to theaters on April 25 for its 20th anniversary. Here's the new poster:

Discovering Siskel & Ebert on "Sneak Previews." They made analyzing movies seem so cool.

Age yourself with a movie you saw in the theater

Today's screening. I'm not allowed to comment on it until tomorrow, but what a cast!

Watching an upcoming movie just as I'm sure the director intended - with my email address watermarked right in the middle of the screen.

Just screened THE PENGUIN LESSONS. Somehow, this is the second movie I've seen in a year's time that's a true story about a man and a penguin. One more and it's officially a trend!

THE MONKEY is equal parts horrific and hilarious, and I have a theory about why it's so much fun to watch all this gruesome bloodshed. Here's my review: aisleseat.com/the-monkey.h... #filmsky @ofcs.bsky.social

They’re going to see if it’s possible for a film to gross less than Zyzzyx Road.

I'm a huge fan of this movie. If you have Shudder, press play on it this weekend.

Also snagged a Captain America popcorn bucket today. I think I might be addicted to these things.

Not only did I see THE MONKEY today, I also bought one of the related popcorn buckets. This thing is amazing.

I'm not monkeying around with today's movie...or maybe I am. Now watching:

"We gotta take these bastards. Now we could do it with conventional weapons but that could take years and cost millions of lives. No, I think we have to go all out. I think that this situation absolutely requires a really futile and stupid gesture be done on somebody's part!" - Eric 'Otter' Stratton

Did you know that the director of CON AIR has a new action movie out this weekend that stars Christoph Waltz, Cooper Hoffman, and Lucy Liu? Probably not, and there's a reason why. Here's my review of OLD GUY: aisleseat.com/old-guy.html #filmsky @ofcs.bsky.social

I saw this movie at Tribeca last year and it's pretty wild. Glad to see it will be getting some distribution. variety.com/2025/film/ne...

THE UNBREAKABLE BOY is the kind of movie that wants to be inspiring so badly that it becomes downright annoying. And speaking of annoying, Zachary Levi stars. Check out my review here: aisleseat.com/unbreakable-... #filmsky @ofcs.bsky.social

It's only noon and I've already written two movie reviews today. One more to go!

CLEANER is like DIE HARD with a window washer instead of a cop. Daisy Ridley and Clive Owen star, and Martin Campbell (CASINO ROYALE) directs. It's in theaters this weekend. Here's my review: aisleseat.com/cleaner.html

Here's a suggestion: There have been 25 James Bond movies, most of them pretty good. Let NO TIME TO DIE be the character's finale and go on to make something new. Not every franchise has to continue forever. deadline.com/2025/02/amaz...

I guess I need to go to Best Buy today. My computer mouse stopped working.

Tonight, TCM is running THE LAST PICTURE SHOW, followed by AMERICAN GRAFFITI. This is not fair because I'm too tired to stay up all night watching them again.

An impressive all-star cast unites for Edward Burns' new ensemble drama MILLERS IN MARRIAGE. It's in select theaters and on digital this Friday. Here's my review: aisleseat.com/millers-in-m... #filmsky

I know I'm a couple days behind on this, but I too was blown away by Eddie Murphy's impersonation of Tracy Morgan on the SNL50 special. I couldn't stop laughing.

This is terrible news. It must be a nightmare for such a gifted musician. www.yahoo.com/news/brian-s...

Did you know Christoph Waltz and Lucy Liu have a new action movie coming out on Friday that's from the director of CON AIR? Now screening:

I'm sure this will make heads explode over at Fox News. variety.com/2025/film/ne...
