Bent Wookiee

- Season 2

(2021)

Dismissed by many, tolerated by some, and passionately protected by others, this fairy tale about impossible love moves at a languid pace but boasts winning performances, great photography, and a controversial score.

A heartfelt and mysterious story about doomed romance that's a quietly moving treatise on love, loss, and loneliness.

A slightly dark sci-fi/fantasy that's probably still checking the mailbox for a check from Christopher Nolan.

Despite a deserved reputation for wooden performances and effects that range from poor to non-existent, this is a surprisingly well-plotted sci-fi cheapie.

In Ang Lee's ensemble drama, the harmonious balance between humanity and food is expressed through love, jealousy, hardships, and dreams deferred.

As unpleasant and depraved a wallow into the darkest recesses of the human soul it is, it's also a sick kick. A putrid blast of unfathomable nightmares with a little kink thrown in for good measure.

A tribute to Will Smith's unstoppable charisma, Hancock is a breezy, often compelling film that nonetheless feels deeply compromised.

Featuring an army of celebrities, this made-for-TV movie delighted and terrified many a child in the mid-80's and remains one of the most important pieces of entertainment from my childhood.

Bent Wookiee wishes you a Happy Valentine's Day with this classic romantic comedy featuring a pitch-perfect cast and one of the most explosively funny finales ever captured on film.

An impressive sequel that picks up directly where its iconic predecessor left off, we journey into the dark and dangerous world of The Cenobites.

The first Disney sequel, this is a slight, but enjoyable follow-up to the charming 1977 original.

Prone to goofy performances and a loosely-connected plot, Hellraiser III features a near-20 minute sequence of such magnificent mayhem and carnage that it nearly redeems the entire film.

Despite its lackluster reputation as the "Pinhead in Space" movie and a deeply troubled production history, this messy time-jumping saga is surprisingly enjoyable, particularly in its exploration of the Lament Configuration's creation.

A grisly, intriguing neo-noir detective picture that happens to be a Hellraiser film.

Baffling and unpleasant, this sixth installment attempts to return to the more sexual nature of the franchise, with diminishing results.
