Dances with Wolves

Note

Dante's Peak

Thoughts Great natural disaster movie. A bit campy, but fun regardless. Volcano movies aren’t terribly common so this one still holds up.

Note

Day of the Dead

Day of the Dead Thoughts Awesome (and gross) practical effects! I like this one much more than Night of the Living Dead.

Note

Days of Thunder

Note

Dead Poets Society

One of those movies where not a ton happens, but it’s gripping all the same. The actors for the students all had great personality and camaraderie.

Note

Deadpool

Pretty hilarious at times. Ryan Reynolds did a great job with the character. Spends most of the time as an origin story, but worked well.

Note

Deadpool 2

Note

Death Becomes Her

Death Becomes Her Thoughts My parents, partner, and I watched this on Halloween in 2025! It was fun to watch together, especially since I hadn’t seen it in quite a while;

Note

Death Wish

Note

Deck The Halls

Thoughts I didn’t like this one as much as I thought I would. Matthew Broderick feels kind of out of place here, as does Danny Devito.

Note

Deep Blue Sea

Note

Deep Impact

Very unfocused, pacing was frantic at times. Gave no indication of time jumps, but suddenly events just discussed had already transpired.

Note

Deep Rising

Note

Demolition Man

Note

Dennis the Menace

Classic kids movie. Walter Matthau plays a great grumpy neighbor. Plenty of the pranks/situations are genuinely funny.

Note

Dennis the Menace Strikes Again!

A failure in most respects, actual funny moments are rare. Most writing and montages are painful, especially the dance scene’s editing.

Note

Despicable Me

Despicable Me Thoughts Coming soon!.

Note

Despicable Me 2

Note

Despicable Me 3

Note

Devil

Devil Thoughts This is a pretty decent horror/thriller movie. I don’t think it tries to do too much, which is a good thing.

Note

Dhurandhar

Dhurandhar Thoughts This was a pretty crazy movie! It was like 3½ hours long, too, so we were at the theater for quite a while! I was invited by my partner’s brother to w

Note

Die Hard

It’s hard to outdo Die Hard when it comes to awesome, classic action movies.

Note

Die Hard 2

Note

Die Hard 3 With A Vengeance

Note

Dirty Harry

Dirty Harry Thoughts This movie is enjoyable, but I also feel like it has quite a bit of those weird ’70s vibes that a lot of films from back then have.

Note

District 9

Note

Doctor Sleep

Note

Dodgeball

I feel like this used to be funnier to me, but it’s still entertaining. Lots of good casting.

Note

Dodgeball (Unrated)

Dodgeball (Unrated) Thoughts Similar to Dumb & Dumber (Unrated), this movie is way less funny to me than the theatrical release.

Note

Donnie Darko

Thoughts Really inventive/fascinating spin on time travel mechanics. Pretty surreal.

Note

Doom

FPS sequence was cool, very little else was though.

Note

Downfall

Downfall Thoughts Very impressed with this one. I found the character-drama aspect to be extremely well done.

Note

Dr. No

Dr. No wasn’t fleshed out. Got some insight into SPECTRE. Side characters were about as intelligent as the seashells.

Note

Dragonfly

Dragonfly Thoughts My partner and I thought this was a pretty interesting movie.

Note

Dredd

Awesome action movie. Very disappointing this never got a sequel or series.

Note

Dumb & Dumber

Note

Dumb & Dumber (Unrated)

Dumb & Dumber (Unrated) Thoughts The theatrical cut is way better — most if not all of the extra runtime takes away from its respective scenes and/or adds no value.

Note

Dumb & Dumber To

Note

Dumbo

Note

Dune

Note

Dunkirk

Decent overall wartime movie. Interesting use of two converging timelines. Feels a bit unfocused. The dogfighting scenes were great.
