Review | Merry Little Batman
MERRY CHRISTMAS DAMIEN WAYNE! ‘Merry Little Batman’ | Rating: 8.75 | Amazon | 1 hour, 32 minutes Amazon’s Merry Little Batman is the family Christmas movie of the year. Endearing, funny, raucous and touching, Damien Wayne never looked so good. I am going to be honest. Batman is one of my favorite DC characters, but the last thing I wanted to see was another Batman property. Thus, Merry Little…

Cobra (1986)
Tumblr media
Cobra is one crazy movie. It’s absurdly violent, at times nonsensical, badly written, and so over-the-top you can’t believe they took it seriously. This film is so busy trying to convince us that legislation and proper procedures get in the way of true justice it becomes hilarious.
Sylvester Stallone is officer Marion “Cobra” Cobretti, a cop so bold all he needs to defeat crime is for those who believe in “due process”, “innocent until proven guilty” and “nonlethal force” to stand out of the way. When model Ingrid Knudsen (Brigitte Nielsen) witnesses a savage attack by a cult of ax-wielding maniacs who believe in a New World Order, she is placed in protective custody. With the cult's leader (Brian Thompson as the Night Slasher) hell-bent on slaughtering her, Cobra is Marion’s only hope.
What a misfire. Even if it were true that police officers could clean up the streets in five minutes if they were given free rein, this film would fail to convince you. Cobra has no grasp on reality whatsoever. Violent crimes may happen every day, some of them might be senseless and random… but how many are committed by one-dimensional villains like the ones we meet here? This feels like it was written by an angsty teenager who just finished reading a newspaper article about a murderer going free due to lack of evidence. It’s a fantasy in which the muscle-bound hero is never punished or even reprimanded because he's surrounded by limp-wristed softies with broomsticks up their asses.
Cutting the legs from under the picture is its own staggering body count. While Jason Voorhees may have butchered 146 people on-screen, that’s over 12 films. Cobra kills 41 in just a few days. The man makes a career of tracking down bad guys. They must have entire fields dedicated to the suspects he’s tracked down!
What cements Cobra as a film that’s so bad it’s good is its earnestness. Sylvester Stallone stars and wrote the screenplay. Director George P. Cosmatos went on to direct Tombstone, about a group of cowboys who decide to bring justice to a small town by the way of the gun. They believed in this picture. They wanted to lure people into the theatre with the promise of violence and action while teaching you a lesson. They wanted to change the way you think. Every antagonist is so slimy, every effort to make Cobra cool is so obvious it winds up having the opposite effect. Whether it's a would-be frightening scene or action-packed exchanges of gunfire, it all becomes hysterical as you count down the number of people sent to their graves. You keep waiting for that weird scene with the robots (don't ask) to pay off… and it doesn’t, making the film a blast to watch alone, but even more entertaining to see with friends that have no idea what they’re getting into.
As a bonus, Cobra is set around Christmas time - obviously to make its violence even more shocking. I’ve heard it used to run longer and was Rated X before it was trimmed down to accommodate more screenings upon its initial release. That original version is what I want for Christmas this year. There’s no better way to describe this Stallone picture than to pull a quote directly from the movie: “This thing’s so far out of control I don’t know where to start”. (On Blu-ray, December 2, 2016)

🎄Holiday Movie Asplosion 2020!🎄 ❄️Chapter 51: White Christmas❄️ ☃️ [Here we are, down to second to last in the top three, all these final several comprising the greatest holiday films of all time, we have another undeniable classic, White Christmas. Another (though undoubtedly superior) one from Irving Berlin, featuring Bing Crosby. Though it doesn't have Fred Astaire's devine dancing, it does have Rosemary Clooney, Danny Kaye, and Vera-Ellen (who's also certainly quite the dancer), and not surprisingly from the title, and updated version of the song White Christmas. Also it was the first film released in "VistaVision".] 🎅 • • • • • • #HolidayMovieAsplosion2020 #iLoveMovies #christmasmovies #holidaymovies #xmas #christmasspecials #holidayfilms #holidays #movies #christmas #blurays (& some #4Ks ) #bluray #abluchristmas #christmasfilms #christmasmoviemarathon #WhiteChristmas (#whitechristmasmovie ) #irvingberlinswhitechristmas #bingcrosby #rosemaryclooney #dannykaye #veraellen #whitechristmassong #thatvoicetho #irvingberlin #michaelcurtiz #greatestholidayfilmsofalltime #classic #1954 href="https://www.instagram.com/p/CJCMNi2j-FQ/?igshid=suvtfjo4n73u" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/p/CJCMNi2j-FQ/?igshid=suvtfjo4n73u

Home Sweet Home Alone (2021)
Tumblr media
The sequels to Home Alone will seem like evolutionary breakthroughs compared to Home Sweet Home Alone. It captures none of what made the film an instant favorite for kids. With embarrassing attempts at self-deprecating humor will have adults groaning and a lack of laughs, no one could call this a holiday classic… though it did lead me to a slight “eureka” moment.
In the process of selling the home they can no longer afford, Jeff and Pam McKenzie (Rob Delaney and Ellie Kemper) suddenly discover they own a grotesque doll worth hundreds of thousands. Unfortunately, it’s gone missing. Believing that Max Mercer (Archie Yates) has stolen it, the parents decide to break into his home to get it back. After all, the Mercer family have all left for a Christmas vacation in Tokyo. There’s no way they’d make the mistake of leaving a 12-year-old home alone…
Everyone remembers the slapstick comedy in 1990’s Home Alone. If you watch it again, you’ll see that the paint buckets on strings, the icy steps, and other makeshift anti-burglary devices only come at the end of the picture. What the film is about first and foremost is growing up. Kevin McCallister is a scared little eight-year-old who learns to overcome his fear of the furnace in the basement and become responsible enough to take care of a household all by himself. In the process, he learns the importance of family. Home Sweet Home Alone skips all of that.
The choice to swap the burglars for people who want what's theirs returned is an immediate misstep. While it makes this a much less scary/threatening scenario for the kiddies, it also makes the injuries suffered unfunny. A simple conversation would've resolved this whole thing. Also, the dimwitted adults seem unsuited to care for their kids…
Many modern-day adjustments make the scenario more relevant and/or plausible. All but one (which has to do with cellphones replacing landlines) are sure to make the picture feel dated immediately. The worst of it concerns every single web search being blocked. It doesn’t make any sense but if Max had the internet, this crazy setup would be over immediately. The talking home assistant gags fare better than the lame winks towards the audience, however. There’s a fun cameo by a Home Alone cast member but director Dan Mazer’s choice to tell us how annoying it is to have beloved classics remade will only prompt you to yell “follow your advice!” at the screen. It’s a shocker to see a name associated with Borat, its sequel, and the Ali G character fumble comedy this badly.
I grew up with Home Alone and was shocked when I saw its 66% "Fresh" rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Seeing Home Sweet Home Alone as an adult with no nostalgia towards the new release, I had an epiphany. I now understand how an adult in 1990 could’ve sat down with the John Hughes-written picture and gone “What am I looking at?” Could this mean that this sequel made decades later become a family favorite years down the line? Not a chance. No one would ever recommend this film over the original or even its sequel any time of year. (December 20, 2021)
