Rocketman is Delectable Garbage

June 11, 2019July 3, 2019 Courtney Young12 Comments

For someone like Elton John, one of the most famous musical artists in the world, with over 300 million albums sold, you would have thought the writers of Rocketman would have put a little more effort into drafting a decent script.

bohemian rhapsody queen

Bohemian Rhapsody was heavily criticized by critics decades ago, but became one of the most influential songs in history. I can't say the movie will have quite the same longevity and impact, but maybe it deserves more credit than critics are giving it. Or does it?

September 20, 2018May 12, 2021 Courtney Young4 Comments

Sofia Coppola's debut film is somewhat of a beautiful mess, an unsatisfying mystery that has stayed with me all these years.

With Tom Cruise, unicorns and Ridley Scott behind the lens, what could possibly go wrong? Apparently, it depends on who you talk to.
