The Rise of Skywalker: Suprisingly, The Best Of The Newest Star Wars Trilogy

Ok, so I know many of you have heard how just wretchedly awful The Rise of Skywalker is, but I'm here to tell you: fear not. From the very beginning of the film, I began to think "this might actually be good". I am not a Star Wars fanatic, but have always liked Star Wars. I was highly disappointed with the travesty known as The Last Jedi, but was pleasantly surprised with... read more

The Girl On The Train (2016) Movie Review | Powerful, Compelling, Tragic, and Emotional Intellectual Thriller

The Girl on the Train is a deeply compelling, thrilling murder mystery, but not your typical murder mystery. Like few other movies before it, The Girl on the Train encompasses tragedy, loss, and despair in such a way that truly captures the essence of real life, despite being clearly larger-than-life.

Maximum Ride (2016) Movie Review | Leaves Much To Be Desired, Many Unanswered Questions and Lacks Plot Development

From the very title of the movie, the many problems with Maximum Ride begin.

Triple 9 (2016) Movie Review | All-Star Cast With Great Action Scenes But Random With Plot Holes Leaving You Wanting More

Since Triple 9 seems a bit of a random movie, it's difficult to determine where to begin with a movie review. The film has all the components to be a truly great crime thriller; yet it never fully reaches its potential. It has a truly great all-star cast; yet each character feels like they're being held back. There are some thrills to the movie; but there are also plot... read more

The Big Short (2015) Movie Review | This Finance Drama With An All-Star Cast Is The Oddity Of 2015

I've been reviewing all kinds of media for quite some time now, about 8 years, and never have I come across something as strange as The Big Short. There was an odd feeling I felt throughout the whole film, that it was a mess while at the same time being a great film.
