Hello! I'm Adam Olinger and movies are a huge part of my life so I have the opportunity to review them. I try to approach each film review with an honest, unbiased viewpoint and hopefully provide some laughs along the way.

Movies TV Shows
Mercy (2026) 24% EDIT “Mercy is the next entry in the War of the Worlds 2025 Cinematic Universe, in the sense that you are wasting 90 minutes of your life watching a dude in a chair react to things. I can witness that for free on YouTube.” – Adam Does Movies (YouTube) Jan 24, 2026 Full Review 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple (2026) 93% EDIT “The Bone Temple won me over where the previous entry didn't. This new entry ups the brutality and the twisted humor. For those of you yearning for more Alpha Samson meat, this time around, you get a buffets-worth.” – Adam Does Movies (YouTube) Jan 13, 2026 Full Review Primate (2025) 79% EDIT “Well this was a nice way to start the new year. Primate delivers a simple, straight forward story with plenty of brutal kills and creative scenarios. ” – Adam Does Movies (YouTube) Jan 6, 2026 Full Review Avatar: Fire and Ash (2025) 66% EDIT “I thought about getting my 3D glasses checked because there were a lot of moments in this movie that looked exactly like the last two films. I'm ready to get off this ride.” – Adam Does Movies (YouTube) Dec 22, 2025 Full Review The Housemaid (2025) 74% EDIT “The Housemaid is trashy, ridiculous and damn entertaining. Amanda Seyfried knows exactly what type of film this is and owns her role. I wish I could say the same for Sydney Sweeney, who sleepwalks from scene to scene, adding nothing to the production.” – Adam Does Movies (YouTube) Dec 16, 2025 Full Review Silent Night, Deadly Night (2025) 77% EDIT “Silent Night, Deadly Night can't decide if it's a buddy roadtrip Venom movie, a disturbing Dexter thriller or a campy Hallmark love story. It never figures it out.” – Adam Does Movies (YouTube) Dec 16, 2025 Full Review Five Nights at Freddy's 2 (2025) 16% EDIT “There is no way the video game is worse than this. Impossible.” – Adam Does Movies (YouTube) Dec 6, 2025 Full Review Primitive War (2025) 65% EDIT “It's too serious to be fun. It's too stupid to be smart. It's too long to be watched. Primitive War is a primitive chore to get through but I did get a few laughs along the way. Just not for the reasons it probably wanted.” – Adam Does Movies (YouTube) Dec 3, 2025 Full Review The Running Man (2025) 62% EDIT “I'm not mad at Edgar Wright, I'm just disappointed. The Running Man is a perfectly fine, entertaining film but I expect more from this director. Audiences will have a good time but don't expect the same level of craft, music and comedy Wright is known for” – Adam Does Movies (YouTube) Nov 12, 2025 Full Review Die My Love (2025) 74% EDIT “The book HAS to be better than this.” – Adam Does Movies (YouTube) Nov 11, 2025 Full Review Baahubali: The Epic (2025) 100% EDIT “"Baahubali: The Epic" is the result of mixing a Disney musical with The Lord of the Rings. Believe me when I say, that's a great thing! The film is a powerful beast with plenty of spectacle, emotional moments and heart. Indian cinema at its finest!” – Adam Does Movies (YouTube) Nov 9, 2025 Full Review Bugonia (2025) 88% EDIT “"Bugonia" keeps you hooked from beginning to end. Emma Stone and Jesse Plemons are in top form, providing audiences with plenty of humorous and shocking moments. ” – Adam Does Movies (YouTube) Nov 9, 2025 Full Review Christy (2025) 67% EDIT “"Christy" lands more punches than it misses. Some choppy editing and some subplots that go unresolved can be overlooked. Sydney Sweeney gives a strong performance in a true story that's both heartbreaking and inspiring.” – Adam Does Movies (YouTube) Nov 9, 2025 Full Review Frankenstein (2025) 85% EDIT “The worst thing I can say about Guillermo del Toro's "Frankenstein" is that it should have had a wide theatrical release. This hauntingly beautiful film deserves an audience that's fully engaged in the work. ” – Adam Does Movies (YouTube) Nov 9, 2025 Full Review Predator: Badlands (2025) 86% EDIT “Predator: Badlands definitely feels like a family-friendly version of Predator I don't necessarily want more of. However, it was still a very entertaining ride with plenty of action, humor and creative kills.” – Adam Does Movies (YouTube) Nov 9, 2025 Full Review Shelby Oaks (2023) 55% EDIT “Watching Shelby Oaks is like going on a rollercoaster with no dips, turns or loops. Just a straight shot from beginning to end. Making for a very lackluster experience. At least you won't have to wait in a long line for it.” – Adam Does Movies (YouTube) Oct 21, 2025 Full Review Black Phone 2 (2025) 72% EDIT “Most movies do not need a sequel. Black Phone did not need a sequel. It got a sequel. I was shocked that the sequel was good. I'm more shocked that I wouldn't mind more. ” – Adam Does Movies (YouTube) Oct 17, 2025 Full Review Roofman (2025) 87% EDIT “Roofman feels nostalgic in a few different ways. Not only do we get transported back to a time when Blockbuster video and Toys R Us were a big thing but the film itself just has a classic feel to it. When movies felt less manufactured and empty.” – Adam Does Movies (YouTube) Oct 8, 2025 Full Review Bone Lake (2024) 84% EDIT “Bone Lake is a very misleading title. While there certainly is a lake in the film, there are very few bones or boning going on.” – Adam Does Movies (YouTube) Oct 3, 2025 Full Review Good Boy (2025) 90% EDIT “Good Boy has an interesting gimmick. A dog has the Haley Joel Osment ability to see dead people. I wouldn't say it's the most exciting film but it's very pretty, has a very short runtime and the dog is fantastic. Air Bud finally has some competition!” – Adam Does Movies (YouTube) Oct 3, 2025 Full Review The Smashing Machine (2025) 70% EDIT “It was nice to see this first-time actor, Dwayne Johnson, in The Smashing Machine. I think he's got a strong career ahead. As for the movie, it needed to get out of the ring sooner. There is enough to warrant a watch but it's no Iron Claw.” – Adam Does Movies (YouTube) Oct 1, 2025 Full Review The Strangers: Chapter 2 (2025) 15% EDIT “The dumb continues with The Strangers: Chapter 2. Most of the 90 minutes is spent watching the lead protagonist hide behind things, while you fight for your life to stay awake. Nothing happens so of course the stupid movie ends with a "To be Continued".” – Adam Does Movies (YouTube) Sep 29, 2025 Full Review One Battle After Another (2025) 94% EDIT “One Battle After Another is a clever, often satirical film. It won't turn you into a radicalized Antifa member, as some bad-faith critics will have you believe. In fact, it does the opposite. The film is sharp, bold and sadly, timeless.” – Adam Does Movies (YouTube) Sep 29, 2025 Full Review The Long Walk (2025) 88% EDIT “The Long Walk is a grim, bleak look at a fallen America. People are broke. Spirits are in the toilet and the government patrols the city streets. No, this is not based on a true story but it feels like it could be. An intense, well-acted film.” – Adam Does Movies (YouTube) Sep 15, 2025 Full Review Spinal Tap II: The End Continues (2025) 65% EDIT “As far as legacy sequels go. I put Spinal Tap II: The End Continues right next to Happy Gilmore 2. Take that however you would like.” – Adam Does Movies (YouTube) Sep 15, 2025 Full Review
