The Last Voyage of The Demeter review
Ever been on a bad ocean cruise? I guarantee it wasn’t as bad as the voyage in The Last Voyage of The Demeter. You may have heard of the Demeter briefly in other Dracula movies but this movie gives you the full story. The Demeter is the ship that transported Dracula from Romania to England according to Bram Stoker’s Dracula novel. In that novel, there is a small section containing the captain’s log from the Demeter, telling a story of an evil killing his crew. This movie takes that small section and turns into a 2 hour movie...

Talk To Me review
The best thing a horror movie can do is make you think about it long after the end credits roll. A24 Studios specializes at releasing these kind of horror movies. Is Talk To Me one of those? Check out this spoiler-free review to find out. Directors Danny and Michael Phillipou present their very first feature-length movie and it was good enough to get into Sundance and get bought by A24. It tells the story of Mia whose mother died relatively recently. To find some comfort for the grief, she agrees to take part in a ritual where you’re po...

Mission: Impossible Dead Reckoning Part 1 review
Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to groan as loud as you can for me making that reference. I bring you the latest installment in the Mission: Impossible franchise with Tom Cruise, Mission: Impossible Dead Reckoning Part 1. We’ve had to go five years without seeing Ethan Hunt, and the rest of the IMF team, head out on another adventure. In this one, old enemies and old “friends” come back to face Ethan as a worldwide threat rises up. This threat is like no enemy that the IMF, or you, have ever seen.

Sound Of Freedom review
Jim Caviezel stars in this based on a true story movie with an important message, Sound Of Freedom. It helps bring awareness to the evil that is human trafficking, particularly child trafficking. Caviezel plays Tim Ballard, a former Homeland Security agent, who first started out arresting child traffickers. Then he shifted his focus to also saving the victims of child trafficking, first with Homeland Security, then in the private sector. This movie tells that story, including one mission to save a little girl at the request of her little brother. This is a gut-wrenching movie that you, and anyone...

Indiana Jones and the Dial Of Destiny review
It was 1981 when we first got to see Indiana Jones in action and he’s still slinging that whip to this day. Harrison Ford jumps back into one of the roles that made him a movie star known around the world. This time he’s pulled into a search for the Dial Of Destiny, that can enable time travel, by an old friend’s daughter. He was about to retire but suddenly he’s globe-trotting again like the old days fighting Nazis. This is the first Indiana Jones movie to use de-aging technology so you’ll see an attempt to recreat...

Extraction 2 review
Chris Hemsworth as Tyler Rake is a black ops specialist/rescue operator. To put it simple, he’s a man of action. In Extraction 2, he’s requested to rescue a mother and her two children from a Russian gangster. To make it even harder, he has to break into a prison to free them. To say it gets harder from there would be a massive understatement. He’s also haunted by a family tragedy that he’s forced to come to terms with when his ex-wife comes back into his life. This is the sequel to the 2020 Netflix action-packed surprise...

The Flash review
It’s been almost 10 years since this movie was announced and finally ‘The Flash’ is here. It’s the latest DCEU entry and one of the last in the soon-to-be irrelevant DCEU. ‘The Flash’ stars Ezra Miller as Barry Allen/The Flash and in this move you get two Barry Allens. That’s thanks to the multiverse aspect of this movie. Barry feels compelled to try to save his mother by going back in time to stop her murder. However, this “all heart and no brains” idea predictably goes sideways. As a result, he meets his younger self and Michael Keaton’s B...

Amazingly enough it’s been more than 10 minutes since we’ve had a Transformers movie. Since 2018 to be exact. Now we get another one. It sure is a Transformers movie.

Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse review
Do you feel a Spidey tingle? If so, that’s because I’m talking all about Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse here and you’re invited. This is the sequel to 2018’s Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse and Miles Morales is continuing his journey as just one of many web-crawlers. This movie introduces a bunch of new characters as part of a Spiderman organization and Miles wants in. However, it won’t be so easy and their leader, Spider-Man 2099, is no Miles Morales fan. Thankfully Miles has his friend Gwen Stacy and his Mom & Dad in his corner. There’s chases, explosions...

You may not know comedian Bert Kreischer but you don’t have to in order to watch this action comedy based on a true story involving the Russian mob.

However, his past with the Russian mob comes back to bite him when they kidnap him to Russia and threaten his daughter. He has to help them find an object he stole when he was younger or else.

Mad Max Fury Road review
Having a bad day? Just think about the post-apocalyptic world in this episode’s movie, Mad Max Fury Road, and you’ll instantly feel better. We’re going throwback in this episode with this 2015 gritty, intense, eye-popping action chase thriller starring Tom Hardy, Charlize Theron and Nicholas Hoult. Mad Max gets captured but then through necessity ends up helping Imperator Furiosa keep some innocent women out of the clutches of the evil warlord Immortan Joe. This makes the movie pretty much one big fantastical, fiery, explosive, crazy, action-packed chase. Should you gas up your ride and join this chase? If you...

Robin Hood (2010) review
Ridley Scott, the director of Gladiator, brought a grittier, edgier version of everyone’s favorite Sherwood Forest hero, Robin Hood to the screen in 2010.

The Lord Of The Rings: The Return Of The King revisited
Our "One Trilogy To Rule Them All" series comes to an end with the multiple Oscar-winning "The Return Of The King."

The Lord Of The Rings: The Two Towers revisited
Our "One Trilogy To Rule Them All" series continues with the second installment in Peter Jackson's epic Lord Of The Rings trilogy, The Two Towers. Released during the Christmas season of 2002, the awe movie audiences felt from The Fellowship Of The Ring was lifted to an even higher level with The Two Towers. This was nominated for multiple Oscars and has been beloved for almost 20 years for its spectacle, emotional gravity, sweeping scenery and of course, Gollum! My precious, take a little time to listen to this episode and take this Middle Earth trip down memory lane....

The Lord Of The Rings: The Fellowship Of The Ring revisited
You shall not pass...listening to this 50th episode of Movies Merica! To commemorate this event, a revisiting of the one trilogy to rule them all, is in order! In 2001, Peter Jackson took the world by storm with his first installment of this trilogy. It was a movie everyone talked about and deservedly so. A real live-action adaptation of the J.R.R. Tolkien classics hadn't been attempted, and especially not one with the big budget this trilogy had.

3000 Years Of Longing review
Lords and ladies, boy and girls. Gather round for a story in the form of a movie called 3000 Years Of Longing. Then again you may not want to. Check out Van's spoiler-free review of the latest movie from Mad Max: Fury Road director George Miller in order to decide. This movie stars Tilda Swinton as the finder of a mysterious bottle and Idris Elba as the genie, or Djinn, trapped in it but then released. Tilda gets the usual offer of 3 wishes but is it really that simple? Is there a dark side? Support the show

Beast review
The lion does not sleep tonight in this movie. This lion must have insomnia and must also be rather angry because it rampages throughout this movie. Idris Elba stars as a Dad that takes his teenage daughters on a trip to Africa to bond as a family. Nothing bonds family together like a fight for survival so the bonding is strong here.

Pew Pew Pew! Brad Pitt stars in Bullet Train, an original, frenetic, kinetic action-comedy movie from the director of Deadpool 2.

Tom Cruise is no Maverick in this one but he gets battle-tested real quick.

The 2014 sci-fi action-adventure mind scrambler that is Edge Of Tomorrow.
