If you enjoy reading my Spoiler-Free reviews, please follow my blog :) Who would have thought that the first (positive) surprise of the year would be a movie starring Seth Rogen in a romantic-comedy?! This genre has been having trouble for the past few years (only a handful of films are worthy of high praise), but Long Shot's amazing cast called my attention at the beginning of 2019 when I was organizing my watchlist of the year. I genuinely love Rogen type of humor, and Charlize Theron is one of the best actresses of the 21st century. Add three more terrific actors like Bob Odenkirk (Presi…

Oddly mild and politically centrist-affirming for a movie about a woman who spends the majority of the movie trying to enact a climate-benefit policy. Also kind of exists in this weird in-between purgatory world where it's "so woke" and "not like those other RomComs where the guy gets the hot girl just because" but is simultaneously like... The slovenly ~nice guy~ still gets this political powerhouse stunner of a woman by the power of... Being himself? I guess. It's a very half measures movie, is what I'm saying. Moves towards one set of things but can't leave the other set behind. And so a mo…

What I hate about the political people is that the right is dissing this because of the way it starts out and the environmental policies at the heart of the campaign... and the Left is saying how horrible it is because a Republican was Black, and had a point, and was still a good person.

Other than that, Boyz 2 Men, got the biggest laugh out of me, which was kind of shocking given that this is a movie that is suppos…

US Secretary of State "Charlotte Field" (Charlize Theron) has some fairly stellar approval ratings ahead of her impending bid for the Presidency when she encounters "Fred" (Seth Rogan) at a swanky soirée. She the epitome of chic, he that of chavdom. It turns out they dated many moons ago and against the advice of her staff, she decides that he could be useful as her speechwriter. A stroke of genius or a fit of madness? Well the rest of this over-long comedy drama really only belongs to fans of Rogan - and I'm not one of them. There are a few scenes where Theron plays the comedy well - swallowi…
