"Fear is a tool."
Goddamn this movie is slick. With the best plot to date of any of the "Batman" movies, this latest one coming so quickly on the heels of Snyder's attempt dives recklessly into the dark, noir side of the world's greatest detective.
It presents a complex and gripping murder mystery that actually has Batman conducting more of the puzzle-solving side of his lore. But the action is also there, and it's splendid, extremely well choreographed, and gloriously…

And, for a few seasons, fans watched as the fictional band Dethklok stumbled and slaughtered their way through a seemingly aimless journey always strung along by secret plans, councils, plots, an…
This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.
I can't help it. I like this dumb movie. I like Perry, I love Hayek. I like the manic comedy, I love how it's such a time capsule, and I love the setting. It's definitely a mediocre, run-of-the-mill rom-com, complete with no-doubt hilarious rump injuries, but it feels like a hug from an old friend.
