Two priests, exiled to an island in the middle of nowhere in Ireland, try to make due.
A mid-1990s British comedy with a laugh track. If you aren’t positive you can handle that, then pass. It has only a few moments, but is otherwise crap.

Archaeologists discover an ancient body with impossible technologies, giving evidence of a time-traveling journalist.
Quite a good movie! With a three hour run time, it was an easy binge and one that strings together seamlessly. A great story, and while it has some storytelling moments, it has unforgiving realism for its characters.
It has only a couple of awkward “like it’s totes real, yo” moments because of some characters, but thankfully it’s well-balanced and is overall absent of religion aside from the major plot point.

A man becomes a music teacher, and teaches music and stuff.
An adequate movie. It’s easily a high-caliber for the kind of movie it is. It’s just not my thing.
This has no relation to The Mummy – (1999 movie).

An antiquities reclamation rogue discovers an ancient Egyptian prison, and becomes an unwilling agent for the curse within.
At best this is an adequate movie. I could weakly recommend it for fans of this sub-genre, but otherwise give it a pass. It has a budget that’s stronger than its writing or acting.

College kids go on vacation out into the woods, and everything goes horribly wrong when misunderstandings spiral out of reason.
A great movie with a great tone. Really fun to watch, but, as with most of its peers, it’s great for just the one watch.
 This poster is more exciting than its movie

A stupid and deaf guy does stupid things while being deaf.
This was listed as a thriller and isn’t even remotely thrilling. It is slow and depressing throughout. I got well past an hour without being thrilled.

A man is kidnapped and held for reasons he’s never told, only to be let out to be confused alongside this movie’s viewers.
I want to like this, I really do, but it makes no damned sense.

A woman is abducted for a mind-control experiment. Hilarity ensues.
This is not “experimental science fiction”. This is outright horror.
I think I’ve seen this before, but blocked it out of my memory.

A woman is pulled back into a life of crime, only to learn that what she helped steal has other interested parties.
A mediocre movie which just feels off and awkward. Definitely not recommended.
Olga Kurylenko is either an absolutely awful actor, or playing an absolutely awful character, or maybe both. Probably both.
