  This film has some fun Dinosaur set pieces, great visuals and music score by Michael Giacchino that are reminiscent of 90s Spielberg, and an amazing performance by Anne Hathaway. It is just everything about the script that really brings this film down. The characters are one-dimensional while making constant illogical decisions, the kids are borderline unlikeable, and the final act is JJ Abrams levels of nonsensical (which is funny because he is a producer on this!) that raises so many questions. I wanted a film that does better than the Jurassic franchise but instead is just as dumb.

  Normal is a film about a town called Normal where things don’t seem to very Normal. However, the film is actually a very Normal action film. Bob Odenkirk is very fitting as the main lead and Interim Sheriff of Normal. The visuals, music and action don’t really do anything beyond plain old Normal action films. It’s just an enjoyable Normal popcorn time film

  Tom Holland returns as Spider-Man for a 4th film, the actor to do so! I thoroughly enjoyed the previous trilogy directed by Jon Watts and was curious where it would go next since Jon was done with it. Hiring the director of Shang-Chi and Wonder Man, Daniel Destin Cretton, two of some of the best post-Endgame Marvel content felt like a recipe for success! Is this a Brand New Day for Spider-Man or a dark day for Spider-Man? What amazes me after watching this film is just how this is the most comic-booky Spider-Man film we have got ever! The amount of shots and visuals that straight-up feel like a comic book panel brought to life is wonderful! Even the way the story is told feels like it with how he fights different type of criminals, interacts with different heroes and faces different challenges. The action scenes are also great with the way Spider-Man fights feeling like it was ripped straight out of the Insomniac Spider-Man games. The choreography during the fight a...

  Curry Barker does a phenomenal job in his directorial debut. The clever uses of lighting, the square 1.50:1 to create this sense of claustrophobia, the sound design, the sudden needle drops, the creepy dialogue all contribute to making Obsession scary without just being reliant on jump scares! Inde Navarrette’s performance deserves absolute praise with the way she moves and the delivery of her lines. She scared me more than any other horror movie monster! Obsession is a terrific film with a fascinating idea that is executed wonderfully to give a surprisingly layered psychological horror film!

  The Odyssey is an epic fantasy action film written and directed by Christopher Nolan. It is an adaptation of Homer’s ancient Greek epic poem of the same name. Nolan is one of those directors who I am willing to watch anything they do. Considering the amazing films he directed such as The Prestige, Inception, Interstellar, The Dark Knight trilogy and Oppenheimer. I was absolutely hyped for The Odyssey! However, the film suffered a lot of backlash, even before release. Many complained of the casting choices, the costume design not being historically accurate and the modernized dialogue. Are the backlash justified or is the final product better than the complaints? Let’s talk about one of the big controversial stuff, the cast. Yeah, none of them are Greek actors, they are all big Hollywood stars. Now do they all do a great job? Absolutely. Matt Damon would definitely not by my first choice for Odysseus but he does some a great job in the role. I think he captures the...
