Con Air, by Albert W. Vogt III
One of the benefits (though this movie has me wondering about that word choice) of reviewing films as I do for The Legionnaire is getting to catch up on titles that I did not watch when I was younger. This might be shocking to some, but I did not see Con Air until I watched…
Blues Brothers 2000, by Albert W. Vogt III
This morning as I got in my car after completing another treadmill run, an Erykah Badu song came on my radio. I am a general fan of her work, but every time I hear her, unfortunately I think of Blues Brothers 2000 (1998). I wish I did not have to add that last adjective. The…
Disclosure Day, by Albert W. Vogt III
The last line, or more accurately, word, in Disclosure Day is “Listen.” Such sentiments are well taken by a practicing Catholic, and the same can be said for many other parts of the movie.

Cleaner, by Albert W. Vogt III
The old man with whom I used to live watched a lot of television. His preferred form of entertainment through this medium seemed to always involve the police. Blue Bloods (2010-2024), all the NCIS shows, and pretty much anything else that involved the cops could be found playing at almost any time of the day. …
Ladies First, by Albert W. Vogt III
One of the things I do when looking up films I am about to review is to glance at what some of the critics have said about them. A comment about Ladies First from The Guardian stood out, calling one Netflix’s newest offerings “laughably earnest.” With respect, this Christian has a difficult time understanding how…
