Windfall
WINDFALL Windfall is a psychological drama that takes a jab at the class structure in the U.S., but the story is slow, and some of the actors don’t sell it. However, the ending is surprising in a weirdly satisfying way, almost making it worth watching the short 92-minute movie. The Director, Charlie McDowell, married to…
The Bubble
THE BUBBLE It takes a particular type of person to enjoy the entirety of The Bubble, which is a silly comedy with a great ensemble of actors that do everything they came to amuse you, make you laugh, creep you out, or generally just act weird to show you a mostly warped view of what…

Hindsight shows that the viewer…
Sold Out
Sold Out What does the wife think of her husband John’s music, his art, his passion – “It’s fine. – but it’s time he grows up.” Not the correct answer, wifey! The other central character in Sold Out, a music-based drama, is Kat, an independent music scout. Kat just got her band a record contract,…
The Adam Project
THE ADAM PROJECT Ryan Reynolds chooses another big-screen film, The Adam Project, where his character’s persona is identical to the role he played in Deadpool 1, 2, and 3, Red Notice and Free Guy. This role is not an acting stretch for Reynolds, but he plays Adam perfectly in The Adam Project, a time-traveling action-comedy….

Munich – The Edge of War
MUNICH – THE EDGE OF WAR Munich – The Edge of War filming occurred at the end of 2020. The film is a historical drama centered around the 1938 meeting in Munich. England’s Neville Chamberlain (Jeromy Irons) and the French prime minister attempt to appease Hitler by “giving him” Czechoslovakia. However, the main story is…
Last Night in Soho
LAST NIGHT IN SOHO Last Night in Soho is a psychological thriller written and directed by the Londoner Edgar Wright. This film is the ninth feature film that Edgar Wright has written and/or directed. He is best known to me for Baby Driver, Scott Pilgrim vs. The World, and Shaun of the Dead. Last Night…
The Fallout
THE FALLOUT The Fallout is a high school drama with a teen vibe; however, the film has value, so it is worthwhile and entertaining for all to watch. The film deals with the lives of four teenagers and how they cope with a shooting in their high school. The first 15-minutes of the film depicts…

Finding You
FINDING YOU Practically, every cliché in the book is in Finding You, a coming-of-age romance film based on the book, There You’ll Find Me by Jenny B. Jones. Even though the film is predictable, utterly moral, bordering on religious, by the end, you still hope for the best for the heroine and the movie star….
Belfast
BELFAST Buddy’s idyllic childhood comes to a sudden end on August 15, 1969, when The Troubles begin on Buddy’s street. The hatred toward the Irish Nationalists (who are usually Catholic and want to be part of Ireland, not England) finally erupts into violence. Belfast is a semi-autobiographical drama seen through the eyes of 8-year old…

A Few Satisfying Movies
A FEW SATISFYING MOVIES Hard Love: Josh Lin (Jimmy O. Lang) tells a dating column writer (Natalie Bauer) a few lies that arouse her enough to travel across the country to Lake Placid, New York, to surprise meet her new love. Kind of a Christmas movie in a similar way that Die Hard is…

The Tender Bar
THE TENDER BAR Girls have Edge of Seventeen, Lady Bird, All the Boys I’ve Loved Before, Juno, Little Women, and many more coming-of-age movies. Boys have Stand By Me in 1986, which is relatable for me. Boys also have superb coming-of-age films such as Moonlighting and Billy Elliot, which I do not connect with. Finally,…
