Welcome to my weird world!
If you are a fan of this rather famous and polarizing movie, I advise you not to read my review. It will seem too much like a personal attack. Some people will look at my F grade and think I'm spitting in the face of war veterans who have sacrificed their lives (and usually sanity)... Continue Reading →
I'm going to soon be seeing the new Halloween Kills, so I thought it would be proper to finally write a review of the predecessor. I saw this film when it was released, but, well, there's a bit of a reason why it's taken me this long to review. Honestly, the Halloween franchise has tripped... Continue Reading →
Here it is. The first big movie ever to have itself delayed due to the announcement of the coronavirus and had all the others follow suit. I wasn't exactly biting my nails for this movie to finally arrive, but No Time to Die was delayed at a time we knew very little about the virus,... Continue Reading →
I'm seeing Venom: Let There Be Carnage tomorrow. I can't wait. Three years ago, I was dragged to my local cinema to see this, the first entry, with my longtime comic book fan of an uncle. And I had no idea what to expect. I'd heard of Venom but hadn't seen any trailers, and I... Continue Reading →
While watching this flick, I was completely unaware of the so-called controversy, of Ben Platt being too old for the role of a high-schooler and one of the producers of the show being Ben's father and therefore inciting nepotism. And I find those concepts quite ridiculous. Rebel Wilson was in her early thirties, older than... Continue Reading →
Reading this book three years ago made me say though I haven't seen the musical this work is based on (which is a switch. A book based on a musical instead of the other way around), I may want to dust off my dancing shoes, if I ever had any. Well, in anticipation for the... Continue Reading →
Ryan Reynolds had to grow on me, but he did. And considering the late 2010s seemed to be his big A-list breakthrough, I'm grateful I just reached the age where I became interested in what he generally works with. Reynolds tends to play characters with hilarious aplomb as he survives and laughs his way through... Continue Reading →
As a reupload since I'm now nearly done An Emotion of Great Delight, I'll begin this review by saying whether or not I end up satisfied or underwhlemd, Tahereh Mafi is the sort of author where I'm always paying attention when she comes out with a new release. So I still have no idea what... Continue Reading →
I love adventure novels. When they’re done right. I think they’re best when they manage to tell every step of the way with no shortcuts like “Three days later”, and yet still retain our attention. In a book with this mission in this setting, you cannot spawn over a day or two. You have to... 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 →
