Long Shot surprised me. I went into the film with little to no expectations given the fact that Seth Rogen starred in it. He’s never been on my list of my favourite actors and I often find his material off the charts and intolerable. Together with Charlize Theron, they made a winner here. Long Shot … More Long Shot (2019)
Eventually, someone was going to give us a movie about what men think. It’s been 19 years since What Women Want was released, which saw Mel Gibson struggle to understand what women want while struggling to avoid romantic feelings for his co-worker Helen Hunt. Fast forward two decades and we find Taraji P. Henson working … More What Men Want (2019)
I wonder how many people watched Isn’t it Romantic and released it was just a spin-off of Pitch Perfect? Did you all forget that Rebel Wilson played “Fat Amy” and had this crazy stupid relationship with “Bumper” played by Adam Devine? Not to spoil the ending of this film for you, because we all know … More Isn’t it Romantic (2019)
The poster says “She woke up like this” when it should have said, “<– Movie sucks with her, Movie is okay with her –>”. None of three leading ladies could have saved this movie, which is just a poor man’s version of Tom Hanks’ hit movie Big. Regina Hall is a pretty funny actress who … More Little (2019)
The Kissing Booth is one of those Netflix original movies I would have never given the time of day, that was until the fiance recommended we watch it. Turns out I was pleasantly surprised with how much I fell for the story and the characters. People will knock this film and say it is cliche, … More The Kissing Booth (2018)
Alita: Battle Angel is the clear cut favourite to win Best Picture and Best Supporting Actor because Mahershala Ali is in it? That’s how those awards work these days right? Jokes aside, Alita kinda reminded me a lot of Mortal Engines, a movie that relied on CGI action scenes and characters to get me from … More Alita: Battle Angel (2019)
If you haven’t seen Five Feet Apart yet you have my permission to close my review and check the latest showtimes. Some people have associated this movie with the other tearjerker Fault in Our Stars. Let me stop all that nonsense right now and say they are nowhere near the same movie since the latter … More Five Feet Apart (2019)
I love Nicholas Sparks movies, there I said it. I have yet to read any of his books but have seen all 11 major motion picture adaptations of his work. Most people who know me or have stopped by the site know I have a soft spot for romantic movies, whether they are heartfelt dramas … More Ranking All 11 Nicholas Sparks Movies
I teased from the moment the trailer for Second Act came out that this was really just Maid in Manhattan 2. I don’t even mean to knock Jennifer Lopez or even Vanessa Hudgens, just we’ve seen this movie a half-dozen times. What springs to mind is two movies, one is Secret of my Success and … More Second Act (2018)
Tulip Fever had a very slow beginning, peaked way before the ending, and gave us a rather crappy ending. I caught this film on my flight to New York recently. It featured one of my favourite actresses today, Alicia Vikander, in one of her steamiest roles yet. Decorated in elegant dresses of the era, she … More Tulip Fever (2017)
