    Zoolander, by Albert W. Vogt III

    Here is another entry from the golden age of Ben Stiller films: Zoolander (2001).  I have to confess to not being excited for this one when it came out.  I recall… Read more “Zoolander, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    Jackie Brown, by Albert W. Vogt III

    Not all Quentin Tarantino movies are created alike.  I believe in other reviews of his films I have basically said as much.  Jackie Brown (1997) is one that, for whatever… Read more “Jackie Brown, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    Puss in Boots: The Last Wish, by Albert W. Vogt III

    By now, if you have been reading The Legionnaire for some time, I would think you would know what a release of an animated movie means for me.  If you… Read more “Puss in Boots: The Last Wish, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    John Wick, by Albert W. Vogt III

    There are many reasons why John Wick (2014) is a completely asinine movie.  It has nothing to do with what sets off Jonathan “John” Wick (Keanu Reeves) on a murderous… Read more “John Wick, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    Avatar: The Way of Water, by Albert W. Vogt III

    Lately, while grading late into the wee hours of the morning, I have been putting on Dances with Wolves (1990).  If you look at my review of that film, you… Read more “Avatar: The Way of Water, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    Intolerance: Love’s Struggle Through the Ages, by Albert W. Vogt III

    One of these days I will run out of reasons to refer to my dissertation, “The Costumed Catholic: Catholics, Whiteness, and the Movies, 1928-1973.”  For now, here is… Read more “Intolerance: Love’s Struggle Through the Ages, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    Prometheus, by Albert W. Vogt III

    Ever since the release of the first Alien film in 1979, they have been trying to replicate its ground breaking blend of science fiction and horror.  Space can be a… Read more “Prometheus, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    Oblivion, by Albert W. Vogt III

    Actual oblivion might be preferable to watching the movie called Oblivion (2013).  At the same time, the word, which is a state of being unaware of what is happening, is… Read more “Oblivion, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    Elysium, by Albert W. Vogt III

    Do you not just hate rich people?  Man, rich people.  It would just figure that they would come up with the secret to immortality, wait until the Earth is… Read more “Elysium, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    Star Trek: First Contact, by Albert W. Vogt III

    As has been documented, I do not care much for anything Star Trek related.  For the record, a Star Destroyer from the Star Wars universe would annihilate any ship in Star Trek.  Nerd side… Read more “Star Trek: First Contact, by Albert W. Vogt III”
