New Release Review - "Mickey 17"
by Eric Hillis, TheMovieWaffler.com
published 2025-03-15

Michael Cera did it in Youth in Revolt. Jesse Eisenberg did it in The Double. Jake Gyllenhaal did it in Enemy. Now it's Robert Pattinson's turn. Bong Joon-ho's Mickey 17 is the latest movie that asks its leading man to play two versions of themselves, one a socially awkward nebbish, the other a confident and sinister alpha male. Pattinson plays the part(s) well, but the movie around him is a fiasco, perhaps the worst ever made by a filmmaker directly after landing a Best Picture Oscar.

Rock On! This Week's Sound Bites...3/13/25

"I do have a big following in the Carteret Police Department; why? I don't know," said Edwin McCain with a large laugh as he readies for his March 20 Carteret Performing Arts and Events Center and March 23 Sellersville Theatre shows. "When we used to play at B.B. King's in the city, so many Carteret cops; I'm actually sitting here looking at my honorary Carteret Police Force pullover, they used to bring us all kinds of swag and it was great. Hopefully we'll see some old friends there but I don't know, it has been so long, they may have retired by now."

New Release Review - "The Rule of Jenny Pen"

by Eric Hillis, TheMovieWaffler.com
published 2025-03-13
There are few news stories that rile us up quite like revelations of elder abuse in retirement or convalescent homes. Bullying old people who can't defend themselves is about as low as it gets, so to hear of such horrors really makes our blood boil. But while we sympathise with the victims of such crimes, it also sets us selfishly thinking about our own uncertain futures, of whether we might end up in such a place and find ourselves similarly victimised.
