Hi.

This is ClawReviews. My last name has ‘Claw’ and I review movies; the naming convention for this site is a stroke of creative genius.

#ClawReviews Movie critics from someone who isn’t a movie critic
Spiderman: Into the Spider-verse (2018)
Jun 1

Jun 1 Spiderman: Into the Spider-verse (2018)

Alexander Clawson
5 Claws, Kids Movie, Action, Comedy

Possibly the coolest part of this movie was the animation style, complete with hatch shading and the occasional narration box

The Aviator (2004)
May 25

May 25 The Aviator (2004)

Alexander Clawson
4 Claws, Dramatic Biopic

Howard Hughes was, undoubtedly, the inspiration for the film-version of Tony Stark.

Three Billboards outside Ebbing, Missouri (2017)
May 19

May 19 Three Billboards outside Ebbing, Missouri (2017)

Alexander Clawson
1 Claw, Depressing, Drama

Set in the fictional town of Ebbing, Missouri, “Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri” (2017) is a depressing story of loss with no concept of repentance and almost entirely filled with distasteful character development.

Lost in Translation (2003)
May 17

May 17 Lost in Translation (2003)

Alexander Clawson
2 Claws, Indie

There is an unfortunate trend where movies sometimes don't fit a genre, but they have a few jokes, and therefore they get labeled as "comedy," despite not actually being funny.

Mars Attacks (1996)
May 14

May 14 Mars Attacks (1996)

Alexander Clawson
3 Claws, Sci-Fi, Stupid

 "Mars Attacks" (1996) gleefully spends it's 90-minute runtime being completely ridiculous.

The Wandering Earth (2019)
May 12

May 12 The Wandering Earth (2019)

Alexander Clawson
2 Claws, Sci-Fi, Stupid

“The Wandering Earth” is a movie based on a book of the same name by Chinese author Liu Cixin. I’d never heard of the book or the author until the various tech and sci-fi blogs online started talking about the movie.

Unicorn Store (2019)
May 8

May 8 Unicorn Store (2019)

Alexander Clawson
1 Claw, Stupid, Fantasy

She’s got paint on her face!
She’s unorthodox and creative!
She’s a pixie-cut away from being the bog-standard ‘manic pixie dream girl’!
She’s Kit!

A Scanner Darkly (2006)
May 5

May 5 A Scanner Darkly (2006)

Alexander Clawson
1 Claw, Stupid, Sci-Fi

The premise of “A Scanner Darkly” is that Robert Arcton (Keanu Reeves) is a cop. Or a druggie. Somehow definitely both.

Avengers: Endgame (2019)

Alexander Clawson
5 Claws, Action, Sci-Fi

No spoilers. I promise. 

Love, Death, & Robots (2019)
Apr 27

Apr 27 Love, Death, & Robots (2019)

Alexander Clawson
5 Claws, Hard-Core Sci-Fi, Sci-Fi, Action, Twisty

There’s something different about “Love, Death, and Robots.”

A Night at the Roxbury (1998)
Apr 21

Apr 21 A Night at the Roxbury (1998)

Alexander Clawson
2 Claws, Stupid
The Birth of a Nation (2016)
Mar 23

Mar 23 The Birth of a Nation (2016)

Alexander Clawson
1 Claw, Depressing, Dramatic Biopic

I didn’t know what “The Birth of a Nation” (2016) would be about.
Frankly, I kinda wish it had stayed that way.
