Loving – Overview/ Review (with Spoilers)

Overview As the world continues to scream that Black Lives Matter, we are reminded of a different aspect in the pursuit of civil rights. One dealing with marriage but not between two men, women, or those who don’t follow the gender binary. But marriage between someone white and someone who is not. Review (with Spoilers)…

Humans: Season 2/ Episode 1 – Overview/ Review (with Spoilers)

Overview Humans returns and while time has moved forward, things largely remain the same. Review (with Spoilers) It has been a very long time since original and new episode of Humans has aired. So long that, honestly, if it wasn’t for me adding all the season 1 reviews, I would be so lost as to…

Hurry Down Sunshine [Book Review] – Overview/ Review (with Spoilers)

Overview A father learns to adapt, as he has before, to a family member, in this case, his daughter, dealing with a mental illness and it being so close to home. Review (with Spoilers) When I first read this book it was sometime when I was in high school. At the time I was trying…

The Intern – Overview/ Review (with Spoilers)

Overview The Intern is a strangely crafted film. It focuses mostly on the difference of generations, that of Robert De Niro’s vs. Anne Hathaway’s, and how many issues remain between them. Yet, at the same time, it shows the beauty of when seasoned and up and coming come together and work on something, learn from…

Joy – Overview/ Review (with Spoilers)

Overview David O’Russell gathers his team again for another film with his star Jennifer Lawrence at the helm. A role she takes on quite well and perhaps shows that as iconic as she is slowly becoming with her antics off the set, perhaps she isn’t like her contemporaries and the big stars of yore. As…

Third Person – Overview/ Review (with Spoilers)

Overview In a 3 in 1 story, we explore the complications of three relationships. Review (with Spoilers) With a cast boasting Liam Neeson, Mila Kunis, Olivia Wilde, as well as Adrien Brody, in starring roles, it is hard to not be intrigued what this combination would do. Though with a low box office tally, as…

Dirty Grandpa – Overview/ Review (with Spoilers)

Overview If you thought Betty White was offensively funny, if you thought Seth Rogen was one of the best in balancing crude humor with the pangs which come from growing older, you haven’t seen nothing yet. Trigger Warning(s): Bestiality (1 Picture), Blood (cuts and broken nose), drinking (recreational), drug use (onscreen – smoking only), homophobic…

The Zero Theorem – Overview/ Review (with Spoilers)

Overview Beneath a strange sci-fi exterior lies a wealth of social commentary which will remind you of the distance you put between yourself and your negative emotions. Review (with Spoilers) Previous to this film, the only production I have seen of Terry Gilliam was The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus which was very trippy. So with the knowledge…

The World of Kanako – Overview/ Review (with Spoilers)

As shown through perhaps the most Trigger Warning(s) noted on this site, this movie is a bit messed up. For in the pursuit of a father trying to find his daughter, he does anything, and everything, not just to find her, but cope with his mental illnesses.

The Family – Overview/ Review (with Spoilers)

If you know Robert De Niro is playing a mobster, then why would you not see the movie? Add on Dianna Agron, who seemingly is the only one to really break away from Glee successfully, and then Michelle Pfeiffer, Tommy Lee Jones and a mob story which doesn’t take itself too seriously, and really what…
