Happy New Year everyone! These are my favourite films released this year. There are some big films I didn't have the time to see, because I also review books, I'm still in university, and I have a lot of responsibilities. Still, I'm proud of this Top 10 (which actually has a few movies with low... Continue Reading →
Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker (2019) Movie Review (Spoiler Free)
You know, I remember the sheer excitement the world had when the trailer for The Force Awakens was released back in the warm weather of 2015, as well as the sheer excitement in the theatre when we clapped at the end right before Luke Skywalker was handed his light-saber from Rey. It was like the... Continue Reading →
Dark Phoenix (2019) Movie Review
Having started movie reviewing in 2014, there were a lot of series I probably should’ve caught up on, like the MCU and Batman movies, maybe the Evil Dead movies, possibly the X-Men movies. I’ve now seen every X-Men movie since 2014, including the Deadpool movies (well, minus that Once Upon a Deadpool that got barely... Continue Reading →
Ne-Zha (2019) Movie Review
My roommate from Hong Kong showed me this film. And as someone who's been somewhat disappointed with other critically acclaimed animated features this year, like The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part and even Toy Story 4, I certainly now get why he was so excited to share this with me. I suspect we have... Continue Reading →
Once Upon a Time in Hollywood (2019) Movie Review
A lot of you will probably assume I’m joking calling this critically acclaimed movie painful. So let me add a little more flavour to help you understand a few things about me; the only other Quentin Tarantino film I’ve seen is Inglourious Basterds, a movie I did enjoy, to put it out there. But also,... Continue Reading →
Harriet (2019) Movie Review
For Remembrance Day, I thought it’d be suitable enough to do a review on the woman who deserves to be on America’s 20 dollar bill, and have about 20 other things (holidays, regions, law principles, statues) named after her in her honour. Every single hero in my home country, Canada, deserves their minute of silence... Continue Reading →
Crawl (2019) Movie Review
As Kaya Scodelario and Barry Pepper both starred in The Maze Runner movies, which is currently my favourite movie series of all time, having surpassed Harry Potter, the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and even the How to Train Your Dragon movies, and seeing as this is a horror movie with Sam Raimi in the production, how could I ignore it?... Continue Reading →
Terminator: Dark Fate Movie Review
Fun fact: Back in early 2015, in a universe that feels so forgotten in this apocalyptic day and age, I had the privilege of visiting San Francisco. And my family and I were staying at a Fairmont the night a scene from Terminator Genisys was being filmed in the hotel basement. I to this day... Continue Reading →
The Lion King (2019) Movie Review
Maybe it’s time for Disney to stop looking at their own shoes as they come up with their next big release. There have been a lot of movies where I feel it’s supremely unnecessary to give the synopsis of a movie, like when I did an updated review to the first Hunger Games book. And... Continue Reading →
Joker (2019) Movie Review – Abnormally Chilling and Line-Stretching
I honestly thought my days of looking away from films and covering my face was over after I started watching horror films where people got shot in the stomach with four-inch long nails or had their arms graphically slashed off. Arthur Fleck is a clown, in so many senses of the word. He works as... Continue Reading →
