Welcome to my weird world!
Four years ago, I sat down and decided to see The Big Short only knowing it was about the 2008 financial crisis. With my schedules of also doing book reviews, school, work, and personal projects, I generally can’t watch as many movies as other film critics, but I decided this one would be worth my...

Hi, whoever's decided to read this. I've been reviewing movies and books since I was 15, and if you read the title, by math that means I'm now 20. A lot of my friends at Grade 10 had way different hobbies than me. Some loved all things volleyball, and others loved cooking or engineering or... Continue Reading →
This movie had large shoes to fill, and it seemed to know that and not know that at the same time, trying to be big but not knowing what to be big for. A sequel to the classic Space Jam has been brainstormed for decades now. A standalone spy sequel led instead to Looney Tunes:... Continue Reading →
You know, as much as racism is no longer seen as a normal and acceptable act in general society, sometimes we forget just how much is out there begging to be unleashed beneath the surface. Reminders emerge all the time, and we stand united against them, but then there are places where it just won't... Continue Reading →
The young but grown up guy looking indifferently at us through that cover asks us questions through that stare: Are you going to treat me any different than you would a white person? Do you have expectations of me? Do you accept me for who I am? Do you accept others for who they are?... Continue Reading →
Well, isn't this a surprise for me. Truth is, out of all the Purge films, the only other one I've seen is The Purge: Election Year, and I gave that one a C-. I did enjoy its story conflicts of the best way to win an election, I appreciated the plot involving the possibility of... Continue Reading →
In my review of the last Hitman's Bodyguard, I pointed out how I didn't like Salma Hayek's character as the hitman's imprisoned wife. Well, that apple's now on its head. ... Yeah, I need to come up with better comparisons. Here, she's out of prison and alongside the blokes, showing just how much she can... Continue Reading →
I actually don't know if I'm going to publish this review, because it makes me a little sick to my stomach doing so. My Aunt Meg liked this book and my uncle gave it to me for my birthday last year because she thought I would enjoy it too. I miss Meg terribly every day,... Continue Reading →
Since the trailer for the sequel was recently uploaded (and I was wondering when it would arrive for a long time; I don't think trailers for big movies normally show up only one month before premiering) I thought I would bring my thoughts on the original, a horror film that's really stuck with me, for... Continue Reading →
In anticipation for the sequel I'm going to see soon, I wanted to bring up The Hitman's Bodyguard, which I would describe as the best example of a "hamburger movie". What is that? Well, like a hamburger, it is familiar, defaultly ungourmet, and often messy when trying to eat it, but tasty, filling, and what... Continue Reading →
The original Miss Peregrine trilogy is flat-out perfect. I read the first one in one day, Hollow City upped the suspense and universe, and by the time I finished Library of Souls, I had a goofy grin on my face like I'd won a trip to Aruba, along with an all expense paid tour of... Continue Reading →
Before sitting down to type this review, and type this first sentence, I stopped to wonder if the same feelings I had for the first Peter Rabbit would end up like this one. I gave the first movie a negative grade too, but then upgraded it after thinking about how it was very funny. Will... Continue Reading →
