Welcome to my weird world!
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...

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...

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 →
In preparation for the upcoming sequel, this is based off of my original review when I first saw Peter Rabbit and how I now see it after I first found it kind of amusing but not good enough to recommend. James Corden plays Peter, a rabbit third, a rascal and rebel first and second. He's... Continue Reading →
There was Maleficent, then Suicide Squad, then Venom, then Joker, now Cruella! Apologies if I missed any, but I have to say villain stories are now trending, and Cruella is a terrific example of why we should be excited for that. When we're kids, we understand our heroes. When we're adults, we also understand our... Continue Reading →
I beg that you see the first Quiet Place before this movie if you haven't already, which is the logical thing to do, after all. The only thing stupider would be a mariachi band in the middle of the emergency shutdown these characters are enduring, that's about 50 times worse than ours. The first Quiet... Continue Reading →
Second-chance movies are suspenseful. Although I’m aware he has an arsenal of movies he has directed, including a different zombie one, this is only the second movie I’ve seen from director Zack Snyder. I watched his Batman v. Superman blockbuster back in 2016, with high expectations from its ad campaign, and even if I wasn’t... Continue Reading →
Wow. I really shouldn't have worried about the sequel to the riotously entertaining and welcoming mystery thriller that was One Of Us Is Lying. With this, Karen M. McManus has made herself official as one of my favourite authors. Maybe I should stand by that statement only after reading one more of her books. There's... Continue Reading →
If you'd like to hear what I thought of the movie, which I saw way before I read this book, you can click here. The short version is I over time just fell in love with it. So much so I was counting down the days till I'd be able to read the supposedly quite... Continue Reading →
