Escape (2024), by Albert W. Vogt III
The first thing to know about Escape (2024) is that it is a South Korean film. That will give you some perspective when I get to the synopsis. Further, with such a general word for a title, know that if you research it yourself, you will find other movies with the same name. I cannot…
Wild Bill, by Albert W. Vogt III
In a recent review I stated that whenever I encounter a film made in the 1970s in one of the streaming services I frequently use, I try to watch it and discuss it. My only reason for this thought is that I feel like I have not done enough to cover that decade. I have…
Minions & Monsters, by Albert W. Vogt III
There is an old saying to the effect that if you are going to do something, do it right.

The Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement, by Albert W. Vogt III
As usual, I will be fracking for Catholic content in a film, this time with The Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement (2004). Like its predecessor, there is a brief moment in which we see two nuns. Tangentially, the only reason I am talking about this film is because there is a predecessor. What separates the…
