The film follows the Turtle brothers as they work to earn the love of New York City while facing down an army of mutants. Adding to the list of movies that are going to do well despite having a non-standard animation style, TMNT: Mutant Mayhem is yet another reboot of the teenage superheroes, this time having the boys be young teens, around 15, instead of older teens, 18 or 19. There’s a few references to previous outings, but none of them are over the top nor really all that noticeable. This movie is it’s own thing and it’s going places...

A plumber named Mario travels through an underground labyrinth with his brother, Luigi, trying to save a captured princess. Now streaming on Peakcock, it’s a fun and fast movie that I enjoyed watching while half awake due to some medication I’m on. I still think the dog stuff at the beginning is a bit too much, but having polled a few people about it, seems like I’m in the minority there. Buy On Amazon!

Explores the vanguard career of Mary, who, as an actor, performer, and advocate, revolutionized the portrayal of women in media, redefined their roles in show business, and inspired generations to dream big and make it on their own. A gushing look back on the career and life of Mary Tyler Moore with interviews, personal videos, and behind the scenes clips. It’s enjoyable and a good reminder of the effects that a single person can have on society, for better or worse. Buy On Amazon!

Ethan Hunt and his IMF team must track down a dangerous weapon before it falls into the wrong hands. I didn’t enjoy watching this movie at all, but I’m not sure if it’s because I wasn’t able to see it in Dolby Digital, or because there were 5 people in the same row as me that were either on their phones the whole time or were just straight up talking to each other about random nonsense. There was also one lady with a 50 piece charm bracelet that got up twice during the film that sounded like she had bells...

A duo learn humanity when forced to team up and pursue robot doubles of themselves. Feels like a low budget film, but with some big budget results, it’s a feel good story via the redemption of two pretty terrible people that are doing their best to take advantage of society’s expectations via robotic exploitation. The special effects and camera work are where my perception of the budget comes through, but all of that was saved by a solid story, great acting, and cohesive ending. Buy On Amazon!

Finding a ghost named Ernest haunting their new home turns Kevin’s family into overnight social media sensations. But when Kevin and Ernest investigate the mystery of Ernest’s past, they become a target of the CIA. A much more satisfying movie than I thought it was going to be and definitely much more family friendly than it could have been, this is a pretty solid ghost gone right story.
