Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner, by Albert W. Vogt III
There have been examples of Catholics in American culture who have been racist. The history of this sentiment can largely be boiled down to one person, Father Charles E. Coughlin. He was a twentieth century priest who gained national recognition in the 1930s through his radio program called the Golden Hour. There was nothing golden…
The Wrecking Crew (2026), by Albert W. Vogt III
The more one watches movies, the more one realizes the rarity of any originality coming out of Hollywood. Take today’s film, for example, The Wrecking Crew (2026). The first thing I do whenever I sit down to write a review is to go to the International Movie Database (IMDb) and pull up the page for…
The Hustle, by Albert W. Vogt III
There is nothing Biblical about saying that women are the “weaker” sex. The Bible does talk at length about the differences between females and males, which is a part of God’s design.

Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day, by Albert W. Vogt III
Not all Disney films are cynical cash grabs. Such a caveat should be used whenever talking about Mouse material. It is not acting in Christian charity to make these kinds of charges, but take a look through the Disney+ catalog. There are so many titles, and I challenge anyone to say that they have seen…
Elizabeth, by Albert W. Vogt III
There are a lot of problems with Elizabeth (1998), and I do not necessarily mean the title ruler of England (Cate Blanchett). My knowledge of these issues began when I was at Loyola University Chicago. While there, I took a course on Early Modern London with one of my favorite professors. He was the first…
The Rip, by Albert W. Vogt III
There is nothing of note coming out in the theaters this weekend, aside from the kind of horror/slasher films I typically avoid for The Legionnaire. If Cameron, or some other practicing Catholic with a penchant for watching movies wishes to review them for us, please feel free to contact me. Otherwise, I thought I would…
