Welcome to my weird world!
It's such a shame when you can see what they were going for - but you really dislike it nonetheless. Considering this movie takes the Ninja Turtles seriously, I feel extra bad for giving a harsh review. I don't think anyone who likes the Ninja Turtles deserves to be ridiculed by friends, classmates or work... Continue Reading →
I dream of being an actor. It's definitely weird wanting to both perform in productions and criticize other people's performances and productions. Maybe one day I should just make up my mind. If I choose the former, I would say my favourite acting roles are characters who don't fall under typical male stereotypes. If that... Continue Reading →
The astronomically anticipated movie has finally arrived, and it is quite the gift the second trailer promised it would be. This is a complete reboot setting of the Sonic Universe, which I suspect is fairly common. Sonic has that kind of restartability. Sonic used to live on an island, never mind which planet nor how...

I always wondered where “Whatcha gonna do when they come for you” emerged from. After 17 years since we last saw Mike Lowrey and Marcus Burnett, who are played by two of the most recognizable actors in history so I need not give them introductions, Burnett is considering retiring from the Bad Boys duet. He’s... Continue Reading →
Quite the heavy book. I mean that literally. I don't know what kind of paper and binding was used, but this sumo wrestler of a book weighs about 15 pounds. So what's in this weighty bind-up? Last year, I saw not one but two films about the King Arthur story: The Kid Who Would Be... Continue Reading →
A million years ago, another war movie, American Sniper, was my choice for worst film of 2015, surpassing even a film I walked out on. While at the same time I knew for some people it was a 2014 film, released in some parts of the world that December and worldwide by January. This is... Continue Reading →
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 →
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 →
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 →
Eragon with phoenixes instead of dragons has arrived. And just like in Eragon, we enter into a world with no mythical creatures left. There were phoenixes once. And marvellous Phoenix Riders, who could telepathically communicate with their winged partners. The most famous include sisters Avalkyra and Pheronia Ashfire who long ago battled a throne to...
