  Overboard 2018

  ★½ Watched 29 Mar 2025

  Wow this started horribly and transitioned to just barely watchable. The first time i laughed was at the construction crew. I liked them. The other times i laughed were at “low blow” and the credits sequence. 

  Boring! Vacant!

  Sons of Ecstasy 2025

  ★★½ Watched 21 Mar 2025

  Felt made for TV. By which I mean to say that the flow felt interrupted by what would be obvious ad break spots, and that the images and even sort of story beats were reused to the point where their redundancy felt annoying, as if to clue in someone who just tuned in. 

  Honestly, nearly every mainstream documentary i watch leaves me feeling it would have been better if it had been built for an audio only format. Nearly nothing…

  EDIT: All Christian cinema insulates itself from criticism by self-selecting an audience that will hesitate to question content from their own group; this movie takes that inoculation even further by being about something serious that everyone agrees is awful. "How can you say the anti-horrible-thing-movie isn't great? Are you PRO-horrible-thing???" Christian audiences, I ask you to consider this film on its merits as a film. If this were a straight action/suspense film, not about harm to children, that wasn't made…
