Unfrosted: Movie Review

A movie spoofing better movies to show how stupid it is.

Jerry Seinfeld, fresh off his “they don’t let us make comedy anymore” social media whining tour, has made a new comedy, Unfrosted, making fun of a whole bunch of better movies that came before it. Seinfeld who acts as producer, director, writer and star of the movie, belongs to a small set of people who likely never saw Air, or Blackberry or Tetris but complained about the idea of those movies being stupid. So he decided to make a stupider movie because he couldn’t see the humanity that was behind those movies.		2024 Directed by: Jerry Seinfeld Screenplay by: Jerry Seinfeld, Spike Feresten, Andy Robin Starring: Jerry Seinfeld, Jim Gaffigan, Melissa McCarthy

Junction: Movie Review

There have been so many opioid epidemic movies and shows over the past year or two, so it kind of seems like an odd choice for actor Bryan Greenberg to make his screenwriting and directorial debut with. It’s impossible for Junction to stand-out against the bigger-budget productions, the grittier productions, the documentary productions, so it just tucks itself into the middle with a nicely polished, lower budget, fictionalized story that could be (mostly) true.		2024 Directed by: Bryan Greenberg Screenplay by: Bryan Greenberg Starring: Griffin Dunne, Ashley Madikwe, Bryan Greenberg and Sophia Bush

Weak Layers: Movie Review

A very enjoyable movie about skiing, friends, lovers, and life in a ski town.

Weak Layers might seem like a simple movie on the surface – a skiing comedy where three female friends try to win a competition – but it successfully incorporates around 4 different simple ideas to tell a movie slightly different than expected to allow the audience to just be entertained by the skiing, the comedy, the romance. It’s got it all and remains a very simple, easy to like, fun to watch little movie.		2023 Directed by: Katie Burrell Screenplay by: Katie Burrell, Andrew Ladd Starring: Katie Burrell, Jadyn Wong, Chelsea Conwright, Evan Jonigkeit
