Six weeks ago, I watched, I Swear, after hearing about it on a round up of movies from 2025. There weren’t a lot of great movies, but the reviewer mentioned it as an impressive movie that didn’t get much buzz.

USAToday Leftist critics hate ‘Melania,’ but the audience loves it
Movie reviewers trade their credibility to be snidely and biased. I understand why Youtube reviewers would do that. Nobody knows who they are, but some reviewers are with established media outlets. If Trump Derangement Syndrome determines the movie review, there’s not point to reading the column.

I watched Train Dreams last night, and don’t want to describe it because I’m likely to mess it up.
Fox News: Gil Gerard, actor who played Buck Rogers, dies at 82
Back when science fiction could be sexy, Gil Gerard was Buck Rogers.
Predator: Badlands, is more like Predator: Bad Families, since it’s all about family dynamics. The synthetic human, predator and indigenous creature become a found family because their real families aren’t up to it.
