The Springsteen movie October 27, 2025

I was never a huge fan of Bruce Springsteen but if one of his songs comes on my car radio, I will not change the channel, and that said, the new movie about him was what I expected. I had no idea he had such a hard time with his father, but I'm glad they made peace. It also showed how he got the idea to write "Born in the U.S.A." which became his breakout hit.

Black Phone 2 October 20, 2025

I only remember the bullet points of the first Black Phone, which I thought was an entertaining enough horror movie, and I say the same about its sequel. It is a story about overcoming fear, and forgiveness, and being a good Samaritan. It is likely to be a Halloween classic, if not close to being one, and if you like to watch horror movies this time of year, I highly recommend it.  If you are interested in the work of many independent authors, click on the link to Smashwords where you can read my books, which in time will be on Amazon.  Smashwords.com  

The Smashing Machine and Tron: Ares October 13, 2025

  Sorry, I didn't have time to blog last week, but I was busy with some stuff.  The Smashing Machine was a standard biopic about a wrestler, and his relationship with his girlfriend, which had some entertaining enough fight scenes, and Dwayne Johnson is always fun. Tron: Ares had some cool special effects and action sequences , but a confusing plot. The only thing interesting in it was when Jared Leto met Jeff Bridges and he could not explain why he liked Depeche Mode .  That said, if you are interested in my books and the work of many independent authors , click on the link.  Smashwords.com
