Movie Review: A Chaotic, Funny Cinderella Story
“Anora” is one of those films that once I heard about it, I was curious as to what sort of a tone it would take its story in. Director Sean Baker’s films are primarily character pieces that focus on people who rarely get as much attention in the media. “Anora” fits this bill […]
Movie Review: Family Cares for Each Other, No Matter What
A Real Pain was a surprising film for me as until about a few weeks ago I had never even heard of it due to a severe lack of advertisement for the film. The film is directed by actor Jessie Eisenberg who in recent years has become more involved in cinema than just acting with […]
Movie Review: A Smile is Contagious…
The original “Smile” by Parker Finn movie was one I put off watching until just recently when I was preparing to see its anticipated sequel. The movie focuses on a paranormal curse that causes those afflicted by it to experience visions of people smiling eerily at them causing their minds to question what […]

Movie Review: Civil War: A Country Splintered
The 2010s saw the release of several hypothetical films where the American government falls to a foreign threat. This trend mainly focused on how the strength of the American spirit overcomes any adversity and how we can push back any threat no matter how big it may be. Alex Garland’s Civil […]
“All of Us Strangers” Movie Review: A Love That Transcends Life and Death
Romance is a genre I have grown to appreciate more over time as an avenue for stellar emotional acting and stories that have left my heart aching. Long gone are the days of the mindset that romance movies are cheesy plots filled with cliches. It is instead a genre that houses […]
Madeline’s movie Review: The Adam project; I should’ve seen this coming
After watching “The Adam Project” on Netflix starring Ryan Reynolds, Walker Scobell and Mark Ruffalo, I will say there are some good things about the movie and some things I wasn’t a big fan of. I felt it was a nice film with a compelling story line. However, I felt at times it was complicated […]
