    Mickey 17

    ★★★½

    I read the book in anticipation of this movie and all that did was left me wondering what was left on the cutting room floor. There was very little of the philosophical discussion or even really the emotional core of the book. The creepers had some pretty significant changes made as well.

    I enjoyed it overall, but a swing and a miss as far as adaptations go

  • Interstellar

    Interstellar

    ★★★★★

    I watch this movie somewhat frequently, but the 70mm IMAX experience is transcendent. Poignant, Prescient, and visually stunning.

    ★★

    I thoroughly enjoyed the stupidity this movie displays while trying so desperately to be intellectual sci-fi. Samuel L. Jackson visits the sphere, starts acting erratically while eating eggs, and then Sharon Stone writes in her notebook “Are eggs spheres?”
