    No Strings Attached, by Albert W. Vogt III

    Recently, I reviewed This Means War (2012), a somewhat funny romantic comedy with Reese Witherspoon that has two spies competing for her affections.  A brief, but no less important moment… Read more “No Strings Attached, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    This Means War, by Albert W. Vogt III

    Offhand, I cannot think of too many films in which Reese Witherspoon appears that I do not enjoy.  There has always been something genuine about her that I… Read more “This Means War, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    The Love Bug, by Albert W. Vogt III

    On Disney+, at least on my version of the home screen, there is often a section titled “Nostalgic movies.”  Sometimes it is there, sometimes it is not, and… Read more “The Love Bug, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    The Absent Minded Professor, by Albert W. Vogt III

    Yes, I know there is an updated version of Disney’s The Absent-Minded Professor (1961), 1997’s Robin Williams led Flubber.  Whether you like it or not, Disney is always taking its older… Read more “The Absent Minded Professor, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    Charlie Bartlett, by Albert W. Vogt III

    Admittedly, Charlie Bartlett (2007) is not a movie with which many are familiar.  That is a bit of a shame.  It is one of the first big breaks for a talented… Read more “Charlie Bartlett, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    Sister Act 2: Back in the Habit, by Albert W. Vogt III

    A movie like Sister Act 2: Back in the Habit (1993) can tell you all you need to know about what Hollywood thinks of Catholicism.  It is not all bad.  It… Read more “Sister Act 2: Back in the Habit, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    Grosse Pointe Blank, by Albert W. Vogt III

    They say there is no going home.  I am not on board with this philosophy.  For me, home is a suburb of Chicago, though I include the entire metropolitan… Read more “Grosse Pointe Blank, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    Never Been Kissed, by Albert W. Vogt III

    There are not too many movies that I can think of with Drew Barrymore in them that I do not enjoy.  Some of them are silly.  The Charlie’s Angels movies are… Read more “Never Been Kissed, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    You’ve Got Mail, by Albert W. Vogt III

    We will call this one, You’ve Got Mail (1998), a coming back to earth after making the leap to National Lampoon’s Van Wilder (2002) following my slog through the Pirates of the… Read more “You’ve Got Mail, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    Thor: Love and Thunder, by Albert W. Vogt III

    Like many people, Thor: Ragnarok (2017) was my first exposure to Taika Waititi, who directed it and provided the voice for the rock creature known as Korg.  I guess there… Read more “Thor: Love and Thunder, by Albert W. Vogt III”
