John Flickinger

Tomatometer-approved critic
Biography:

Hey there, folks! I'm John Flickinger, and yes, that's my bona fide last name - destined for the silver screen, some might say! My love affair with movies began the day I conquered the mystical art of pushing play on my parents' VCR. To me, films serve as the ultimate getaway car, whisking us away from the mundane and driving us towards exhilarating realms outside this reality we dub as 'normal'.

Disney's Snow White (2025) 40% D “Any magic in this live-action adaptation is snuffed out by meaningless subplots, a choppy narrative, and the real poison apple—Gal Gadot's Evil Queen performance. An instantly forgettable Disney adaptation.” – The Flick Pick (Youtube) Mar 25, 2025 Full Review Novocaine (2025) 81% B- “Novocaine is painful to watch—in the best way possible. It blends the vibes of Baby Driver with the action of Nobody. While it may not be a classic, it's comedically violent, nerve-numbing, and worth a watch.” – The Flick Pick (Youtube) Mar 6, 2025 Full Review Last Breath (2025) 80% B “Last Breath is a full-blown panic attack disguised as a movie—and that’s a compliment. This true-story survival thriller will make you question why anyone willingly dives into the abyss. The tension is relentless, the claustrophobia suffocating!” – The Flick Pick (Youtube) Mar 1, 2025 Full Review Captain America: Brave New World (2025) 48% D+ “Captain America feels like a supporting character in his own movie. What should be a thrilling comic book blockbuster instead plays out like a condensed, clunky version of an anticlimactic, made-for-Disney+ series.” – The Flick Pick (Youtube) Feb 15, 2025 Full Review Heart Eyes (2025) 81% B- “Heart Eyes is a fun, self-aware Valentine’s Day rom-com slasher. Think Scream with comedy cranked to 99%. It’s not groundbreaking, but in 90 minutes, it delivers laughs, mild suspense, and gore while fully embracing its B-movie charm. ” – The Flick Pick (Youtube) Feb 7, 2025 Full Review Gladiator II (2024) 70% C- “Gladiator is a masterpiece, while Gladiator 2 is simply a sword-and-sandals action flick you'll forget about almost instantly.” – The Flick Pick (Youtube) Nov 24, 2024 Full Review Woman of the Hour (2023) 91% B- “This 90-minute thriller has just enough WTF moments to keep you entertained. It’s not groundbreaking cinema, but it’ll keep you cozy and mildly horrified for one solid watch.” – The Flick Pick (Youtube) Nov 11, 2024 Full Review Venom: The Last Dance (2024) 40% D+ “Venom The Last Dance is a chaotic road trip of subplots and forgettable characters, stuck in a mid-2000s comic book vibe. Eddie and Venom’s bromance is the only highlight, but everything else feels random, abrupt, and half-hearted.” – The Flick Pick (Youtube) Nov 5, 2024 Full Review Joker: Folie à Deux (2024) 31% C “It’s an epilogue that almost succeeds. Joaquin Phoenix embodies Arthur Fleck’s psychosis perfectly, but the musical numbers feel like romantic filler in a chaotic narrative that ultimately leaves you unfulfilled.” – The Flick Pick (Youtube) Oct 3, 2024 Full Review The Substance (2024) 89% A- “The Substance is an anxiety-fueled, psychotic body-horror thriller that drags you headfirst into a blood-filled abyss of glamour, beauty, dysmorphia, and gore, all while presenting a compelling narrative with something to say.” – The Flick Pick (Youtube) Sep 29, 2024 Full Review Terrifier 3 (2024) 78% C+ “Terrifier 3 is a visceral thrill ride that delivers on its promise of brutal gore and chaotic mayhem. While the story feels a bit obligatory in linking the Christmas-themed carnage, it manages to inject a dose of dark humor that keeps things entertaining.” – The Flick Pick (Youtube) Sep 28, 2024 Full Review The Wild Robot (2024) 96% A- “The Wild Robot was an unexpected emotional rollercoaster—gave me the same protective robot feels I haven’t experienced since T2: Judgment Day. ” – The Flick Pick (Youtube) Sep 28, 2024 Full Review Speak No Evil (2024) 83% B “Sleek, exhilarating, and unapologetically brutal, this film offers a darkly comedic twist that keeps you on the edge of your seat. James McAvoy delivers a riveting performance as an unhinged psychopath, chewing up the scenery!” – The Flick Pick (Youtube) Sep 13, 2024 Full Review Beetlejuice Beetlejuice (2024) 75% C+ “The Juice is back, and while the film’s highlights live up to its title, a convoluted story and multiple soul-draining plot points nearly dry it up.” – The Flick Pick (Youtube) Sep 12, 2024 Full Review Alien: Romulus (2024) 80% “Alien Romulus feels like a love letter to the franchise, though it has its rough edges. It delivers fan service effectively but occasionally crosses into pandering. Overall, it’s an acid-spitting thrill ride!” – The Flick Pick (Youtube) Aug 16, 2024 Full Review Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991) 91% “Like a relentless T-800 on a mission, this film continues to dominate as the greatest action movie ever made. Nearly 25 years later, it remains a high-octane adrenaline rush that’s guaranteed to have grown men weeping by the third act.” – The Flick Pick (Youtube) Aug 12, 2024 Full Review Deadpool & Wolverine (2024) 78% “This is an R-rated love letter to comic book movies—a much-needed, unfiltered adrenaline shot straight into Marvel's heart, potentially reviving it from the dead. It's pure, well-earned fan service and a must-see blockbuster!” – The Flick Pick (Youtube) Jul 24, 2024 Full Review The Bikeriders (2023) 80% “"The Bikeriders" revs its engines with a nod to Scorsese, as the cast channels their inner James Dean and Marlon Brando. Despite hitting the throttle at times, the film's narrative often veers off course, ultimately leaving a void of fulfillment.” – The Flick Pick (Youtube) Jul 22, 2024 Full Review Twisters (2024) 75% “Twisters" lacks the charm, humanity, and craftsmanship of the 1996 film "Twister." Instead, you watch unlikable characters flee from CGI tornadoes that lose their thrill by the third act, resulting in a generic disaster flick.” – The Flick Pick (Youtube) Jul 19, 2024 Full Review Longlegs (2024) 86% “Longlegs is inspired by multiple thrillers and feels like a surreal, art-house, supernatural take on Silence of the Lambs. Nicolas Cage delivers a performance only he can, in a well-crafted, though sometimes disjointed, film.” – The Flick Pick (Youtube) Jul 12, 2024 Full Review The Watchers (2024) 33% “The premise of 'The Watchers' promises an eerie, minimalist horror flick, but the execution in the second and third acts is nothing short of a cinematic crime against humanity, wreaking havoc on storytelling and entertainment.” – The Flick Pick (Youtube) Jul 7, 2024 Full Review Challengers (2024) 88% “Challengers follows two devoted simps chasing after a toxic girl, all wrapped in the energy of a sports movie. It balances humor and heart with nuance, keeping you hooked despite its straightforward premise.” – The Flick Pick (Youtube) Apr 30, 2024 Full Review Nightcrawler (2014) 95% “Indulge in the enigmatic charm of Gyllenhaal portraying an oddly likable sociopath, coupled with dark humor and a riveting yet straightforward plot. Nightcrawler isn't just a movie; it's a gift you give yourself, with a runtime that flies by.” – The Flick Pick (Youtube) Mar 25, 2024 Full Review Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire (2024) 42% “Ghostbusters Part 1 concludes with an epic battle against a giant marshmallow kaiju, Part 2 sees the Statue of Liberty spring to life, and now Frozen Empire wraps up anticlimactically in a garage... Felt like a Disney+ adaptation of the classic IP.” – The Flick Pick (Youtube) Mar 24, 2024 Full Review Road House (2024) 60% “This movie played out like a forgotten DVD bargain bin flick from 2005, starring an A-lister. But instead of charm and over-the-top mayhem, it delivered lackluster creative choices, no chemistry among characters, and McGregor was himself... ” – The Flick Pick (Youtube) Mar 22, 2024 Full Review
