The Snowman (2017) Movie Review

November 4, 2017 Steve Baqqi

The Snowman is a thriller with a stellar cast and proudly boasts production by film great Martin Scorsese. Michael Fassbender leads an ensemble cast as detective Harry Hole. Harry grapples with alcoholism and struggles to catch a serial killer across frozen Norway. If you read that and thought, “Hey that sounds like it might be good!” You’re wrong, dead wrong. It's terrible.

X-Men: Apocalypse (2016) Movie Review

July 1, 2016 Steve Baqqi

Bryan Singer, the director of X-Men, X-2, and X-Men: Days of Future Past, has returned to direct X-Men: Apocalypse. But unlike the first three, which have flaws but are generally very entertaining and well-regarded superhero films, X-Men Apocalypse is not a good X-Men movie. It’s not even a good movie. That being said, it still has its moments, especially with regard to action sequences. But, the film is too long and is brought down by fundamental problems with its villain, an abundance of characters, and contrived plot threads.

Steve Jobs (2015) Movie Review

November 20, 2015 Steve Baqqi

Steve Jobs is a very good film about an unlikable asshole. This film is the third to feature the enigmatic co-founder of Apple in two decades. This Sorkin-Boyle production is a well oiled film about Steve Jobs and his relationship with the people closest to him. However, why Hollywood needed a third film to tell Job's story is beyond me. Aaron Sorkin’s Steve Jobs is a character study of a control freak who doesn’t care what others think about him.
