    Irish Wish, by Albert W. Vogt III

    When you type Irish Wish into Google, the headline for the review given by Vulture from New York magazine says, “Irish Wish Is a Crypto-Fascist, AI-Generated Harbinger of Doom,” which is for a piece… Read more “Irish Wish, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    Just Married, by Albert W. Vogt III

    Sometimes when deciding what movie to review, you have to go with the more popular choice.  Do not get me wrong.  One of my goals for The Legionnaire, as laughable… Read more “Just Married, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire, by Albert W. Vogt III

    Yesterday, I saw a horror movie instead of seeing a horror movie.  The difference is that one is meant to be a comedy, and the other is likely… Read more “Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    Beverly Hills Ninja, by Albert W. Vogt III

    Chris Farley was an interesting, and flawed, individual.  He grew up in an Irish Catholic family, unsurprising given his last name.  A surname alone is not an indication of… Read more “Beverly Hills Ninja, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    Wanderlust, by Albert W. Vogt III

    As a practicing Catholic, a title like Wanderlust (2013) gives me pause.  After all, it has the word “lust” in it.  The Church defines that word as a “disordered desire or… Read more “Wanderlust, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    Lucky Number Slevin, by Albert W. Vogt III

    If you have been with The Legionnaire from the beginning, you may remember a time when Cameron and I were only reviewing new releases.  Then we got COVID.  With cinemas shut… Read more “Lucky Number Slevin, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    The Change-Up, by Albert W. Vogt III

    We have all been there, have we not?  At some point, we will encounter that person, usually a friend, who has the kind of life we wish we… Read more “The Change-Up, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    Waiting . . ., by Albert W. Vogt III

    It is a good thing that Waiting . . . (2005) is not a film many people talk about these days.  With a cast that features the likes of Anna… Read more “Waiting . . ., by Albert W. Vogt III”

    Someone Great, by Albert W. Vogt III

    Candy Jar, by Albert W. Vogt III

    We all put undue pressure on ourselves.  Even by writing that opening sentence, I have already done so to myself.  I invariably use a dropped capital for my first… Read more “Candy Jar, by Albert W. Vogt III”
