I genuinely think A QUIET PLACE is a perfect movie and one of the best horror movies of all time. So I cannot think of a more perfect way to welcome the cinema experience back than with A QUIET PLACE PART II. The film was originally scheduled to premiere on March 8, 2020, the week… Continue reading Movie Review: A Quiet Place Part II
CRUELLA makes for a tough review because while the film is lacking in the originality department, how can you not enjoy watching the Emmas (Stone vs. Thompson) battle it out and swoon over the amazing fashion? I also am a diehard Disney fan and am very quick to nerd out about the latest film, regardless… Continue reading Movie Review: Cruella
Off the bat, it's important for me to say that as a rule, I do not watch movies starring or about animals. I am way too sensitive about animal deaths/injuries, etc. to be able to handle seeing it on-screen, so I stay away. I intermittently make exceptions to this rule, and have been burned time… Continue reading Movie Review: Dream Horse
This past week, I watched LIMBO and PROFILE in the same day and was struck by how differently these films depict Middle East representation in cinema. On one hand there is PROFILE, a film that uses social media to tell the story of a British reporter that gets in over her head while investigating the… Continue reading Movie Reviews: LIMBO and PROFILE
I am a diehard Disney nerd (my euphemism for what the kids now despairingly call a "Disney Adult") and have been yearning for new Disney films during these tough pandemic times. I love the thoughtful messages contained in each story, the breathtaking animation, and the nostalgia. MULAN and SOUL held me over in 2020, and… Continue reading Movie Review: Raya and the Last Dragon
All you need to say to me is "period romance" and you better believe I will be ready to watch on opening night. So the second I saw the trailer for THE WORLD TO COME, with its amazing cast and beautiful cinematography, I knew it had my name all over it. I understand some are going… Continue reading Movie Review: The World to Come
It's hard to believe that LAND, with its gorgeous cinematography and gut-wrenching story, is Robin Wright's feature film directorial debut. Of course she has directed some of the best episodes of HOUSE OF CARDS, but LAND is clearly a passion project and a film that Wright should be proud to put her name on. It is a beautiful… Continue reading Movie Review: Land
With such big-name movies at the Toronto International Film Festival this year as FORD V FERRARI and JOKER, I was shocked that the film tied for my favorite at the Festival ended up being OUR FRIEND, a movie I had not heard of before the Festival and one that I only attended because I am… Continue reading TIFF Movie Review: Our Friend
Isn't it strange that before NEWS OF THE WORLD, Tom Hanks had never done a Western? Well, buckle up because this film is exactly what Hanks had been waiting for. Admittedly, I am not usually a huge fan of Westerns, but this film had me hooked from the beginning and I haven't been able to… Continue reading Movie Review: News Of The World
