  Money, Guns and a Merry Christmas 2024

  ½ Watched 25 Feb 2025

  Money, Guns, and a Merry Christmas might genuinely have the worst script of all time.

  Not worth your time or the price of admission. Makes for a fun, drunken bad-movie-night with friends though.

  Venom: Let There Be Carnage 2021

  ★ Watched 06 Oct 2021

  Unfortunately, Venom: Let there be Carnage was much worse than I thought it was capable of being.

  I was genuinely shocked at how much of the runtime was spent on cheap attempts at humor. At a tight 90 minutes, you'd think the film would be concerned more-so with the set-up/pay-off…
