Most Adam Sandler films are good fun, and this is no different. Add in a few retired pro wrestlers and a plot about prisoners playing football against their own guards and you’ve got a recipe for a very fun watch.

The Muppet Christmas Carol

★★★★ Watched

The best muppets movie and the best dickens adaptation. Maybe even the best Christmas movie. Michael Caine gave it his all emotionally, while surrounded by a cast of puppets.

Awesome movie. Love when sci-fi directors actually do their research instead of slapping the word quantum on everything and calling it a day. McConaughey delivers his best dramatic performance.

Are you not entertained? Is this review not why you are here? Russell Crowe and Joaquin Phoenix absolutely crush their respective roles and the fight scenes are simultaneously realistically brutal and brutally realistic

Best horror film of the 21st century? Maybe not but the plot is coherent and the suspense is palpable.

My favorite Stephen King adaptation. Michael Clarke Duncan as John Coffey is an all-time great performance and Tom Hanks isn’t too shabby either.

The Shawshank Redemption

“Andy crawled to freedom through five hundred yards of shit smelling foulness I can't even imagine, or maybe I just don't want to​. Five hundred yards... that's the length of five football fields, just shy of half a mile . . . and came out clean on the other side.” The rooftop scene made me feel like a free man even though I already was one. Fantastic performances from all involved but especially Tim Robbins and Morgan Freeman. You will find this film at the very top of many GOAT lists, and for good reason.
