Earlier this year, I was looking through all the movies I own digitally, and there’s a lot.  When I was going down the list of them, I decided that at some point, I would start on a project where I’d watch them all. Partially because I recognized there was a decent percentage (like somewhere around 5-10%) of movies I own that I never watched.  This bothered me.

It’s not the first time I’ve undertaken a project like this, I undertook the same project some years ago with all the music I owned, and tweeted about it on my music twitter account.  I’m basically doing that, except this time I’m using my own Twitter account, and I intend on blogging about them vs only tweeting.  Basically, my plan was to watch all of them, and make a few comments on them.  Not write 2,500 word reviews, but a few thoughts as to what I thought after I watched them.

This page will be an archive of all the movie reviews I’ve written in this project.  I don’t have a set timeframe for them, but I am planning on watching at least one per week.

Also, if you’re at all curious, I have a spreadsheet online which shows all the digital movies I own. I’ve been slowly moving that way over the last few years. I do still have a handful of physical left, but other than Pixar, I’m not making a concerted effort to buy physical anymore.  You can view the spreadsheet here.  It is an iCloud shared spreadsheet, but you do not need an Apple or iCloud account to log in.

“Watch ’em All” Movie Reviews:

• Star Trek: Nemesis (4/9/2025) - Here’s some pre viewing thoughts.  This movie has a pretty awful reputation.  Most people tend to rank it last of the four TNG movies.  Now I’m going to go all stupid and say something like it’s the best, because it clearly was not.  But I don’t think it’s the worst (that’s Insurrection).  My memory has […]
• Star Trek: Insurrection (4/1/2025) -   I wanted to lead off this review with a statement I’m making before watching any of it.  I’ve always had this movie filed in my brain as “this is too small – this is a boring movie”.  I’ve never really cared for it.  There’s nothing explicitly awful about it (well, almost nothing).  The problem […]
• Star Trek: First Contact (3/23/2025) - After the success of Star Trek: Generations, another Star Trek film was put into production in short order.  This is the first Trek movie that’s solely the Next Generation crew – it didn’t have the crutch of Kirk and other TOS characters like the last film did.  Not that they really needed it, but this […]
• Star Trek Generations (3/21/2025) - The seventh Star Trek movie is for me one the belies the “odd number movies aren’t that good”.  It’s perhaps not Wrath of Khan or Voyage Home, but there’s a lot to like about this.  Having said that, it has a few problems, but none of which are bad enough to take down my overall […]
• Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country (12/23/2022) - This is a film that has aged well for me.  In fact, I like it now far more than I did when it was new.  As I’ve said for the other Star Trek films I’ve written about, I was there opening day in 1991.  I didn’t hate it – because I think there are no […]
• Star Trek V: The Final Frontier (10/24/2021) - Spock's brother steals the Enterprise and looks for "God". Not best of the lot.
• Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home (8/17/2021) - My review of "the one with the whales".
• Star Trek III: The Search for Spock (8/29/2020) - My review of the third Star Trek film where the Enterprise blows up.
• Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan (8/2/2020) - My review of arguably the best of all of the Star Trek movies, "Wrath of Khan".
• Star Trek: The Motion Picture (7/2/2020) - My review of the first Star Trek movie from 1979.
• Yesterday (Movie) (2/3/2020) - My review of the 2019 movie where the world has forgotten who the Beatles are.
• Die Hard (1/18/2020) - My review of the classic action film Die Hard. Which is not a Christmas movie!
• Star Wars VIII: The Last Jedi (1/11/2020) - My review of "The Last Jedi", a film most people don't seem to like.
• Star Wars VII: The Force Awakens (12/22/2019) - My review of the first post-Lucas Star Wars movie - The Force Awakens.
• Star Wars VI: Return of the Jedi (12/7/2019) - My review of Return of the Jedi - the last of the original trilogy of Star Wars movies.
• Empire (11/25/2019) - My review of Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back, clearly the best overall Star Wars film.
• Star Wars: The Original (11/17/2019) - My review of the original Star Wars movie, which I did see in the theatres in 1977. Still awesome despite Lucas' changes.
• Rogue One: A Star Wars Story (11/10/2019) - Excellent Star Wars movie - better than some of the primary films.
• Star Wars III: Revenge of the Sith (11/9/2019) - The best of the prequels and the birth of Darth Vader.
• Star Wars II: Attack of the Clones (11/8/2019) - Where the Anakin Skywalker actor changes, but the acting doesn't get any better.
• Star Wars I: The Phantom Menace (11/8/2019) - Reviewing probably the most detested Star Wars Movie. It's not all poo doo, though.
