Review (with Spoilers) Admittedly, I am not a big fan of period dramas. I find them pretentious and…
Overview A film which focuses on the misogyny in Hollywood, within the voice over industry. Well, until it decides to be a romantic comedy.

Overview/ Review (with Spoilers) As someone who never had a dog, much less a pet which was invited into my home, I didn’t feel like I was missing out on much. I didn’t have this needy thing which required me to feed it, walk it, and clean it for its entire life. However, after watching…

All TV Biopics aim to be on the level of the Temptations or Little Richard, but often times they at worse are the Aaliyah movie or on the level of CrazySexyCool. However, with The New Edition Story, be it because it is in multiple parts and not cramming 5 lives and careers into two hours,…
Overview/ Review (with Spoilers) Often times when films target the poor, it is about them pulling up their bootstraps and eventually being fine at the end. That or doing something illegal to get by. However, with I, Daniel Blake you are reminded that being poor or needing assistance isn’t something which should maintain the negative…
Episode 1: Fallen Princess Overview A beloved princess discovers the world she thought was her oyster, was never meant for people like her. Trigger Warning(s): Uncomfortable scene dealing with clothes being ripped off and a physical exam Review (with Spoilers) When the episode begins, honestly I thought this was going to be another sci-fi/ fantasy…
Overview/ Review (with Spoilers) You know, something I’ve learned about Gotham is that it never will try to put you completely off. What I mean is, while it may experiment with a new villain, a new twist on an old character, it often maintains the things it knows fans would like. Be it Selina and…
Overview/ Review (with Spoilers) Do you know anyone who seems to live for drama so they decide to become friendly with people who they swore off, get into relationships which will only cause them heartache and headaches, and basically chose people who decide they ain’t manure as well?

Overview/ Review (with Spoilers) Despite being the type of game made for replayability, Urban Empire strangely has the vibe of a one play through type of game.

Overview Ballet 422 is the type of documentary which more so has the viewer act as a shadow who watches as everyone gears up for a performance vs. being the type of documentary which is almost detective-like and probing. Review (with Spoilers) – Below
In the pursuit of being funny, Bad Moms completely wastes its opportunity to address the issues of trying to be the perfect mom, while still having some fun.
Overview/ Review (with Spoilers) After Revolori’s past performances in Dope as well as The Grand Budapest Hotel, combined Josh Peck’s work, of which I honestly only know him for The Wackness and appearing in David Dobrik videos (I wasn’t a Drake and Josh fan), there was some hope here. I figured, like XOXO, it would…
Overview Think Touch with less mystery, more likable characters, and a kid which can actually communicate. Review (with Spoilers) A part of me misses Touch, the first season anyway, when Jake was a likable little mute. But as time went on it went haywire and Keifer Sutherland was unable to save it from itself. But…

Overview/ Review (with Spoilers) Demi-chan wa Kataritai (Interviews With Monster Girls) firmly established itself as a slice of life anime featuring a few world famous monsters and while they do have some issues, they are approached in such a melancholy or indifferent way that it is hard to take and keep interest at times.
Overview/ Review (with Spoilers) While the majority of the episode is very aggravating and ends with an unnecessary moment featuring some ecchi, there remains this cute budding relationship which is the show’s saving grace.
While it seemed, for awhile, M. Night Shyamalan would stand tall amongst Steven Spielberg, Woody Allen and other legendary directors who could have a series of flops yet still get financing, it seems he may have something on his hands here. Not a new classic, but definitely something which will win at the box office.

Overview/ Review (with Spoilers) With only a half hour to make a decision, as you’d expect, this sort of reunion show rushes through everyone’s advice to Topanga over what to do. Yet, as always, despite a short time length, Girl Meets World takes advantage of what you’ve learned thus far about these people and makes…
Unfortunately, being offensively funny has become a thing and for some reason, it is assumed anyone can do it. On top of that, it is assumed that as long as it is funny, you can get away with saying anything. But what happens when two unlikable anti-heroes aim for anyone and everyone and damn near…

Noted Actor(s) Xander Cage (Vin Diesel) | Xiang (Donnie Yen)…
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KGXcXhk6vng Overview/ Review (with Spoilers) Otis is a problem. One which seemingly the show realized it shouldn’t drag out so they decide to handle that storyline this episode to leave Jahil with the bulk of the criminal activity.

Overview Despite all the programs currently on OWN, for the most part, if it didn’t have Oprah’s name on it, if she wasn’t interviewing someone, I honestly felt it wasn’t worth watching.
