Don't Let Go - Movie Review

Plot Seems Familiar

Don't Let Go is a movie about a grieving uncle who mysteriously gets a call from his niece two weeks in the past. If this sounds familiar to you, then you might be a movie addict too. In 2000, Frequency came out about a son able to talk to his dad 30 years in the past using an old ham radio. Both movies are good crime dramas and are worth a watch.

Review

As I said, this movie is a good watch. If the niece in the movie looks familiar, you might have seen her in either the latest Wrinkle in Time movie or in Sleight. Storm Reid is a very great actress who makes you feel for any character she portrays. This modern version of the Frequency story line is will keep you guessing until the end. My only issue with this movie is that once the reveal has been made the you know what will happen to the characters, you are left with just the credits. I would have enjoyed seeing a weeks or months later epilogue. This is the second movie I have seen recently where the movie just ends. Don't Let Go was only a 103 minutes. Crawl was the other movie that just ended and it was a mere 88 minutes. Add 5 to 10 minutes for an epilogue to both these movies please.

Rating

I would rate this a HD movie. I would recommend you at least rent this movie but it is also worth $5 to add to your collection. During a sale, this movie was a free from UltraCloudHD with the purchase of $50 or more which is how and why I got my copy.

Avengers: Endgame - Review

Movie Review - Spoiler Free I will try to keep this a spoiler free review. First, I would like to applaud Disney/Marvel for making a movie over the 2 hour limit that most movies have kept themselves to lately. The movie would have felt rushed if it was only 2 hours. The movie starts out appropriately timed to the events of Avengers: Infinity War. The movie kept you emotional invested throughout the entire movie. There was some predictability with the story but for the most part, I was able to enjoy the ride without knowing what would happen next. This to me made the movie extremely enjoyable. We get see how the characters deal with the aftermath of the Infinity War and what their options are moving forward. Each character was given their opportunity on screen during the movie. This is obviously easier to do since there are fewer characters after the events of Infinity War. I felt that many characters had an appropriate conclusion to their stories. The movie did leave me with a couple ...

Glass - Movie Review

History M. Night Shyamalan has made many movies that provide plot twists that are unusual. Unbreakable and Split are two such examples that surprisingly become part of the same universe. Unbreakable was released in 2000 by Walt Disney Studios. Split was released in 2017 by Universal Pictures. Glass is the third movie in the trilogy distributed jointly by Universal and Disney. M. Night Shyamalan’s movies were pretty reliable in the 1990s and early 2000s with movies like The Sixth Sense, Unbreakable, Signs, and The Village. The Last Airbender in 2010 was horrible. With a rich story from the animated series Avatar: The Last Airbender, M. Night managed to destroy over 8 hours of great story telling by condensing it into a 103 minute movie. Not to mention how the characters names were mispronounce throughout the film. I could spend an entire post on how that movie destroyed a live action series. My children convinced me to purchase Split. I admit at the time of this post, I have yet to...

Protecting Your Online Collection

 Protecting Your Collection In this time of cyber crime, you want to protect your investment of digital movies. I will be focusing this page on the primary retailers that connect with Movies Anywhere. At the time of this post, I am only aware of Google and iTunes are the only two retailers that offer secondary authentication. Technically, Amazon offers a secondary authentication with the use of a pin for digital purchases. I highly recommend you use these security feature provided by Amazon, Google, and iTunes. This provides great protection for your collection and any saved credit card information that you have with the retailer. I would not advise keeping your credit card information with a online retailer but I understand it's convenience. With that said, I will point out that users have the ability to removed their credit card information from Amazon, FandangoNow, Google, iTunes (provided you are not using Family Sharing), and Microsoft. This is convenient when one of the retai...
