- Emilia Pérez (7.7/10)
This was a bizarre film. I don't think it deserves 13 oscar nominations nor a 24% rotten tomatoes aduience score. I think it was really solid for a musical as well, it didn't seemed to forced. Zoe Saldana was really good. "A Mexican lawyer is offered an unusual job to help a notorious cartel boss retire and transition into living as a woman, fulfilling a long-held desire."
- You Gotta Believe (7.5/10)
Story is great but the movie was alright. It is based on a true story of a dad who has cancer, while his son competes in the Little League World Series. I Liked Luke Wilson for this role and it feels like any baseball fan will enjoy this film. " After dedicating the season to a teammate's ailing father, a group of underdog youth baseball players makes it all the way to the 2002 Little League World Series, culminating in a record-breaking showdown.
- If Beale Street Could Talk (7.2/10)
Most people know about the history of this film, I had a class in high school that took a deep dive into African American Literature. I just didn't feel the film was as captivating as James Baldwin's book that I read in that class. This film was slow paced and the acting didn't meet my expectations. " In early 1970s Harlem, daughter and wife-to-be Tish vividly recalls the passion, respect and trust that have connected her and her artist fiancé Alonzo Hunt, who goes by the nickname Fonny. Friends since childhood, the devoted couple dream of a future together, but their plans are derailed when Fonny is arrested for a crime he did not commit."
- Flora and Son (8.3/10)
A really good drama film with hardships and a bunch of happy moments. It wasn't anything crazy but I still had a good time watching. Not meant for everyone but take a look into it. " Single mom Flora is at a loss about what to do with her rebellious teenage son, Max. Her efforts to keep him out of trouble lead to a beat-up acoustic guitar, a washed-up LA musician, and harmony for this frayed Dublin family."
- The Beast (7.5/10)
Superb acting, cool plot, but a bit confusing. Halfway through I had to look up what was going on to fully understand which you don't love to see. It doesn't help that everything was in French. A slow drama with some romance and thrills. " As artificial intelligence reigns, emotions have become a threat; to get rid of it, Gabrielle must purify her DNA by diving back into her past lives; she finds a great love there as well as a bad feeling."
- A Good Person (8.3/10)
Florence Pugh has become one of my favorite actors as of late. She a gift for acting in dramas. I haven't seen Morgan Freeman act in a film in a long time as well. It is a sad movie so be prepared to feel uncomfortable. " Allison is a young woman with a wonderful fiance, a blossoming career, and supportive family and friends. However, her world crumbles in the blink of an eye when she survives an unimaginable tragedy, emerging from recovery with an opioid addiction and unresolved grief. In the following years, she forms an unlikely friendship with her would-be father-in-law that gives her a fighting chance to put her life back together and move forward."
- The Empty Man (7.1/10)
I have seen almost every good horror movie to come out since 2005. If you have any recommendations please let me know. This one had a great plot and ending but was really confusing at the same time. Can keep on your list if you're a horror fan but it shouldn't be at the top. " On the trail of a missing girl, an ex-cop comes across a secretive group attempting to summon a terrifying supernatural entity."
- Back In Action (5.3/10)
A good, entertaining, family movie starring Jamie Foxx and Cameron Diaz. It had solid action and a good plot, just a bit silly for my liking. Not the worst way to spend your time. " Former CIA spies Emily and Matt are pulled back into espionage after their secret identities are exposed."
- Nightbitch (5.1/10)
The cover of this movie is almost nothing like the movie. It was weird but had a powerful message. Not one to keep on your radar. " An artist who pauses her career to be a stay-at-home mum seeks a new chapter in her life and encounters just that, when her nightly routine takes a surreal turn and her maternal instincts begin to manifest in canine form."
- Out of the Furnace (7.6/10)
Great acting led by a stacked cast Christian Bale, Woody Harelson, Casey Affleck, William Defoe, and Zoe Saldana. It was a bit unrealistic for my liking but it was a solid 2013 thriller and was intense and kept me engaged. " Steelworker Russell Baze works a dead-end job and holds tight to his sense of family, duty and loyalty. Rodney Baze, Russell's brother, returns home after serving in Iraq and, with his debts piling up, becomes entangled with a vicious crime lord. Soon afterward, Rodney disappears mysteriously. The police fail to solve the case, so Russell -- feeling he has little left to lose -- puts his life on the line to bring his brother home."
- Era Ora (7.3/10)
This is an Italian RomCom and is suggested to be watched with subtitles. I thought it was solid but nothing special. The main message of the movie is a good reminder to take time off work and enjoy life. Time flies by skipping a lot of the things you want to do in life. " Dante and Alice find their relationship put to the test when Dante gets stuck in a time loop where each day is a year of his life. In order to continue their lives together, Dante must challenge his workaholic ways."
- Till (8.4/10)
Everyone knows the history of this film. It was really upsetting to watch but also outstanding to see the effort Mamie Till goes to make a name for her son and his memory. Danielle Deadwyler performance was amazing. " The true story of Mamie Till-Mobley's relentless pursuit of justice for her 14-year-old son, Emmett Till, who was brutally lynched in 1955 while visiting his cousins in Mississippi."
