Movie Review: Here Starring Tom Hanks – A Deeply Emotional and Philosophical Journey

Drama, Drama Review, Manga, Movie, Movie Review, Movie Review, Movies and TV Series, Review /

Omg, I loved Here with Tom Hanks! Critics and fans might give it low ratings, with scores around 20-30% out of 100, but I’m here to say, don’t let that fool you! This movie is not garbage at all—it’s thought-provoking, moving, and exactly the type of film that makes you think.

If you’re the type of person who loves digging into deep, emotional, and philosophical themes, then this movie is for you. I know that might not be everyone’s taste—sometimes people just want comedy or action. But Here is something different. It’s a journey that plays with the ideas of time, memory, and love, and it does it in a way that sticks with you long after the credits roll. read more

Joker 2: Joker Folie a Deux Review: SPOILER WARNING

Movie, Movie Review, Movie Review, Movies and TV Series, Review /

Do not read this review if you do not want to hear spoilers for the new 2024 Joker 2: Joker folie à deux.

Again this will contain spoilers

Leave now this is your last warning.

Spoiler Warning: This review contains major spoilers and personal reflections on Joker: Folie à Deux.

We went to see Joker: Folie à Deux on opening night in a sold-out, packed theater. Chaos ruled the experience from the start, with children as young as five or six running up and down the stairs during the film—a strange sight, considering the dark themes. The atmosphere was as wild as the movie itself. Leaving the theater, we encountered chaos on the roads too. People walked in pitch black, dressed in dark clothing, and we almost ran them over. Just a mile later, we came across what looked like the ending scene of the film—multiple car crashes, scrap metal, broken glass, and ambulances. The film’s chaotic energy seemed to spill into the real world. read more

A Ghost Story Review: A Bizarre Journey to an Unexpectedly Profound Ending

A Ghost Story Official Trailer

Introduction:

When I first heard about A Ghost Story (2017), the hype was real. The critics were raving, the trailer hinted at deep existential themes, and the movie seemed to have collected awards like a ghost in a haunted house. But does it live up to the buzz? I dove in, prepared for an emotional journey through life, death, and beyond. What I got was one of the most perplexing viewing experiences of my life—a mix of profound beauty and utter frustration. Buckle up; this is not your typical ghost story.

The Good, The Bad, and The Confusing

Let’s not sugarcoat it: A Ghost Story is not an easy watch. The first hour and a half felt like an eternity. Imagine a film where a grieving widow spends ten minutes silently eating a pie. Yes, ten minutes. In silence. Watching this, I felt like I had stumbled into a modern art exhibit where the artist was daring me to leave out of sheer boredom. Long, lingering shots, almost no dialogue, and a ghost under a bedsheet—it felt like the movie was playing a trick on me. Was this the masterpiece that critics had lauded, or was I missing something? read more

Film and Television /

“Beef”: A Critically Acclaimed Masterpiece on Netflix

In the realm of television, few series manage to encapsulate the whirlwind of human emotions as deftly and powerfully as Netflix’s “Beef”. This ten-episode journey is a rollercoaster of feelings, brilliantly blending humor, drama, suspense, and raw emotion into a narrative that’s both compelling and profoundly moving. “Beef” is not just a TV show; it’s an experience that will make you laugh, cry, and sit on the edge of your seat, often all at once.

At the heart of “Beef” lies the intricate dynamics between its two protagonists, whose initial encounter sparks a series of events that are as unpredictable as they are riveting. The show delves into themes of anger, sadness, grief, self-loathing, and rage with a finesse that is seldom seen on screen. It’s a deep dive into the complexities of human emotions and relationships, exploring the impact of childhood experiences, family issues, societal expectations, and much more. The characters’ journey is a testament to the notion that understanding and reconciliation can emerge from the most unlikely circumstances. read more

Netflix’s adaptation of Rumaan Alam’s novel, “Leave the World Behind,” presents a compelling narrative that intertwines the unease of a mysterious global disaster with the microcosm of individual responses.

Disney Missed The Mark With “The Marvels” Movie – Review.

Disney, Movie, Movie Review /

As a long-time fan of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, I approached “The Marvels” with high expectations, especially given the buzz around cameo appearances of iconic characters like Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.) and Captain America (Chris Evans) in the trailers. However, my anticipation quickly turned to disappointment when these scenes were noticeably absent from the actual film. This bait-and-switch tactic set a disheartening tone for the rest of the movie.

See the trailer they used here: read more

Choose Love Interactive Netflix Romcom Review

1 Comment / Adventure Game, Casual Game, Film and Television, Games /

So, I just watched Netflix’s interactive romcom “Choose Love,” and honestly, I’ve got mixed feelings. First off, the concept is basically an Otome game come to life. You get to make choices for Cami that affect her career and love life. The love interests? Totally dreamy, all of them. There’s her long-time boyfriend Paul, her high school sweetheart Jack, and this rockstar named Rex.

But here’s where it gets a little sketchy for me: the acting. It’s bad. Cami even breaks the fourth wall, and that just makes it worse. However, the cinematography in some scenes is stunning, like the one with the white sheets—absolutely beautiful. And the way the studio lights hit Rex? Magic. read more

Barbie Movie Review From An Adult Doll Collector

As an adult doll collector, fan of ’80s and ’90s nostalgia, and a proud owner of a pink-dressed Azone Iris Petite, the Barbie Movie has been the highlight of my year. This film isn’t for kids; it’s a pop culture extravaganza tailored for grown-up enthusiasts like me.

With adult humor galore, such as Barbie’s comments about genitalia and the over-the-top macho Kens, the movie keeps you entertained throughout. Sugar Daddy Ken, Earring Ken, Pregnant Barbie, Midge, Allen, and even the “weird” Barbie – who is now getting a doll of her own – have unforgettable roles. read more

Super Mario Bros. New Animated Feature Length Movie Film Review

Movie News, Movie Review, Movies and TV Series /

The Reviews for the new animated Super Mario Bros. movie are in, and they are not good. But, I decided to go see the film today and I really enjoyed it. FYI, I didn’t care for the 90s live action film, which is notorious for being the worst movie of all time to many film critics. Some of the critics are saying it’s better than the new 2023 movie, but I disagree. Despite bad reviews, I was happy with the new 2023 Super Mario Bros movie.

As a 41-year-old gamer girl who has grown up with the 8-bit NES and witnessed the evolution of the gaming world, the 2023 animated Super Mario Bros. Movie was a delightful and nostalgic trip down memory lane. read more

Free Guy Movie Review

Movie Review, Movies and TV Series, Review /

Free Guy is the best film of 2021.

Here’s why:

You’ll love Free Guy if you’re a gamer!

First of all, I’m a huge gamer. You have to be a gamer to “get” Free Guy. If you’re not a gamer, this is one to skip. But for me, it’s my favorite film of the year. Not all will agree. My husband said 20 minutes into the movie that he didn’t understand it. I explained it by referencing Dead Pool, another film starring Ryan Reynolds. In Dead Pool, the main character realizes he’s inside a comic book. In Free Guy, “Guy” (Ryan Reynolds) realizes he’s inside a video game. Realizing that they cannot die, and that nothing they do matters, they develop an almost god like complex. But in Free Guy, Ryan Reynolds is actually a good guy and motivated by love. read more

The Mitchells VS The Machines Movie Review

Movie Review, Movies and TV Series, Review /

The Mitchells VS The Machines is the #1 movie on Netflix today. I watched it on a whim this evening all by myself as I waited for my fiance to get off work. I went into the movie completely blind, knowing nothing about it at all. Within the first three minutes I was literally laughing out loud. I almost NEVER laugh when watching TV – I cry easy watching TV – and The Mitchells VS The Machines had me shed a few tears too before all was over.

It’s a movie with a lot of heart. The characters feel very real. Although flawed as the family might be, they have a very human like quality. It’s also very relateable due to the topics it includes. No, not robot apocalypses, but the themes of family, and growing up and fear of failure and taking risks and learning to let go, and let your children chart their own course. read more

Captain Marvel Super Hero(ine) Comic Movie Review About Girl Power & The Feminist Movement

Movie Review, Movies and TV Series, Review /

I just watched Captain Marvel lastnight. For those living under a rock, Captain Marvel is the leader of Marvel’s Avengers. She’s a famous super hero(ine) and tough as nails army (airforce) girl turned super hero.

She’s not new, created by famous comic book legend, Stan Lee, and making her comic book debut in 1967.

The movie however is more recent, releasing about 2 years ago in March of 2019.

So just a heads up – yes I am a woman, but I am definitely not a feminist. I don’t really like the movement or concept that a woman can only be strong if she dresses and acts like a man. I am very much a girly girl. I don’t wear makeup (mostly cuz I’m too lazy and also have no idea how to wear it correctly lol). But I do love me some dresses, and I’d consider my personality to be more on the sweet and timid side and softly spoken, and also sometimes passionate or bubbly when I’m chatting about my interests. My interests may sometimes overlap with tomboy interests when it comes to geeky things like anime or video games, but that’s about it. I’m not into sports or whatever else most tomboy girls are into. read more
