Your Weekend Movie Guide for July 2024

 

Summer's here and don't you wish you go to this theater?   A drive-in even makes the dreariest of movies watchable.

Speaking of which, you know the drill by now.  I'll scan the local theaters and give you my knee-jerk gut reaction to what's in our theaters.   And the list of junk will make you long for a drive-in even more.

Twisters:  Nothing like a follow-up film thirty years after the first one came out.

Despicable Me $:  There have been four movies about Nancy Pelosi?

Longlegs:   You need them to reach things on high shelves.

Fly Me to the Moon:  A dreadful looking romcom with Scarlett Johannsen and Channing Tatum.  Collective IQs: less than 80.

Inside Out 2:  Hated the first one, so do the math.

A Quiet Place - Day 1:  The good news is that you can't do a prequel set before the prequel.

MaXXXine:  No clue but, with that title, there better be nudity.

Bad Boys:  Starring Martin Lawrence and Will Smith.  Paging Chris Rock.

Horizon - An American Saga:   All of a sudden, Kevin Costner is John Wayne.

Bad Newz:   I avoid all movies with misspellings in the title.

Clear Out:  I see Alec Baldwin in the ad.  What crew member died in this one?

The Crumb Catcher:   About somebody who invents a kitchen appliance.   In my house, the crumb catcher was our dog.

Before Dawn:  A young Australian sheep herder goes off to fight World War 1.  All Quiet on the Really Far Western Front.

Clawfoot: A housewife, played by Clint Eastwood's daughter, is terrorized by a contractor.  Given who her father is, that guy should think twice.

Dinner last night:  Pineapple-bacon chicken sausage.
