Superhero Double Bill: “Captain Marvel” and “Aquaman”

Recently two big-budget superhero films hit theaters; Captain Marvel and Aquaman. Aquaman got a surprisingly positive reaction from the fans, while Captain Marvel was, and still is, being bombarded by bad reviews from a bunch of people who can't get over the fact that Brie Larson wants more diversity in the industry. However, there have also been negative reviews concerning …

Opinion: “Mile 22” (2018)

Peter Berg was on his way to become qualified as a good director. Ever since Lone Survivor, he’s made nothing but great films. Then Mile 22 came around; the not-so-surprising flop if you’d seen the trailer, but very surprising flop if you’d seen the director’s previous films. It was panned by critics and audiences alike, …

A Piece About Time, Philosophy, and “A Ghost Story”

I go over the entire film in this analysis, so it’ll both be a long article (5000 words) and a spoiler-filled one. But by now you should’ve seen the film, if not, go watch it; it’s my favorite film of 2017. Also, keep in mind that this is my interpretation of the film. A Brief …

A Few Places Where I Believe Season 2 of “13 Reasons Why” Fucked Up

Oooh boy

Here’s a Cool Shot | Mission Impossible

The first Mission Impossible is gorgeously directed, but it was this shot in particular that stood out the most to me. It makes use of De Palma’s trademark split diopter focus and it's composed in an interesting way, which is what I’ll talk about in the next few words.

Here’s a Cool Shot | The Childhood of a Leader

Without having heard of it before, I randomly selected a film on Netflix, called The Childhood of a Leader. I wanted to watch a film with post-Twightlit Robert Pattinson in it since he’s actually a really good actor. While he doesn’t appear often in this film, he does play a pivotal role and even without …

This article will have short reviews of the following films in this order: Hostiles, Revenge, Midnight in Paris, Bone Tomahawk and Zoe.

“The Good Place” is quite brilliant and I can’t really figure out why.

SPOILERS FOR SEASON ONE OF THE GOOD PLACE We all know that empty feeling we have after having finished a show. It’s as if the show has left a hole inside of you. We then quickly move on to another show to re-fill that empty spot as soon as possible. Though you know that you’ll …

Opinion: “A Quiet Place” (2018)

2018 has been far from stellar; Paradox was terrible, Mute was boring and Black Panther failed to amaze me, just to give you a few examples. I’ve only seen a handful of really good movies this year like Game Night and Annihilation, but now I’m happy to say that I can add another one to …

Opinion: “Before I Fall” (2017)

Ever since Barry Jenkins, the director of 2016’s Moonlight, announced on Twitter that this film was worth checking out, I was more than excited to see it. So I was naturally disappointed when the film didn’t get a release date in my country. We only tend to get big budget blockbusters in theaters and sometimes …
