The Naked Gun Is The Perfect Comedy

This is a video from my YouTube channel, Jack’s World.

There’s no need to debate this.

There’s no point in arguing this.

The Naked Gun is the perfect comedy. That’s it. There’s no way to claim otherwise. It is perfect in every conceivable way and deserves to be celebrated as such.

How To Train Your Dragon: Why Hiccup Is The Ultimate Underdog Hero

This is a video from my YouTube channel, Jack’s World.

In this video, I highlight a hero’s journey, as well as an underdog story. Both stories, on their own, have plenty of appeal. But it’s rare to see them rolled into one character and one story.

But “How To Train Your Dragon” did just that with Hiccup, a character who embodies everything we love about underdogs and heroes. Enjoy!

Bob’s Burgers: Why The Plight Before Christmas Is The Perfect Christmas Episode

This is a video from my YouTube channel, Jack’s World.

Bad Santa: The Perfect Anti-Christmas Christmas Movie

This is a video from my YouTube channel, Jack’s World.

In this video, I make the case that the 2003 movie, Bad Santa, is the perfect anti-Christmas Christmas movie. It’s also a movie that we need during the holidays, if only to add a little dark humor to our holiday cheer. Enjoy!

Smile | A Good Horror Movie That Was Almost Great

This is a video from my YouTube channel, Jack’s World.

This video is my personal take on Smile, a 2022 horror movie that I was really excited about when I first saw the trailer. But after seeing it in theaters, I found myself a bit underwhelmed with how it played out. I still thought it was a good movie, but it had the potential to be much greater. And I think that shortcoming offers some lessons for future horror movies. Enjoy!

Morbius Review: Very Basic, Mildly Entertaining, And Underwhelming

The following is a video from my YouTube channel, Jack’s World. This video is my review of Morbius, a movie that attempts to bring Marvel’s living vampire to life. Now, to say this movie had a lot working against it would be a gross understatement. Beyond just following up the massive success of Spider-Man: No Way Home, this movie has been delayed and maligned at many turns. Despite all that, I tried to give it a fair chance. And after seeing it, here’s what I hope is a fair review. Enjoy!

Spider-Man: No Way Home – An Amazing Culmination With Amazing Implications

The following is a video from my YouTube channel, Jack’s World. It is my full review and reaction to “Spider-Man: No Way Home.” Now, make no mistake. This is the biggest, boldest, most ambitious Spider-Man movie ever made. It is also one of the biggest superhero movies since “Avengers: Endgame.” As such, it had a lot to live up to. It’s also one of those rare movies that is best left unspoiled.

With that in mind, please note that this video contains heavy spoilers. Please see this movie beforehand. It’s so worth not spoiling. You have been warned. Enjoy!
