  • Aquaman and The Lost Kingdom (4.4/10)

    Jason Mamoa's character is starting to be the same in every film he is in. This comedic and loud personality they have him do in every movie seems off-putting. The action was average but the first one was better than part two. "After failing to defeat Aquaman the first time, Black Manta wields the power of the mythic Black Trident to unleash an ancient and malevolent force. Hoping to end his reign of terror, Aquaman forges an unlikely alliance with his brother, Orm, the former king of Atlantis. Setting aside their differences, they join forces to protect their kingdom and save the world from irreversible destruction."

  • Poor Things (8.5/10)

    I still don't know what to think about this movie. The performance by Emma Stone was unreal and also surprising given all the nudity I didn't expect. It is about rediscovery and finding equality in her character's own terms and creating a lane in life for herself. I wasn't captured by the plot of the movie as much as I was about the acting. "Brought back to life by an unorthodox scientist, a young woman runs off with a lawyer on a whirlwind adventure across the continents. Free from the prejudices of her times, she grows steadfast in her purpose to stand for equality and liberation."

  • Wonka (8.4/10)

    For those that don't know me as well I am not the biggest fan of family/children movies. However, I was pleasantly surprised how much I liked this film even though it is on the younger side. Timothée Chalamet and the supporting cast did an awesome job illustrating the story on Willy Wonka. A unique twist showing the upbringing of his character. "Armed with nothing but a hatful of dreams, young chocolatier Willy Wonka manages to change the world, one delectable bite at a time."

  • Battles of the Sexes (8.4/10)

    I had no idea what this movie was about going into it on the plane. It was the tennis story of Billie Jean King and how she fought to get equal pay for women in tennis tournaments. I go to the US open every year and hear them honor her. I didn't know the story as well as I should have. It was a good film and recommend watching. "The 1973 tennis match between Billie Jean King and Bobby Riggs became the most watched televised sports event of all time. Trapped in the media glare, King and Riggs were on opposites sides of a binary argument, but off-court each was fighting more personal and complex battles. With her husband urging her to fight for equal pay, the private King was also struggling to come to terms with her own sexuality, while Riggs gambled his legacy and reputation in a bid to relive the glories of his past."

  • I Care A Lot (7.1/10)

    Solid acting, entertaining plot but still not at the level I was hoping for. I kinda felt annoyed by every character in this film and didn't like anyone which made it hard to watch. "A shady legal guardian lands in hot water when she tries to bilk a woman who has ties to a powerful gangster."

  • Dune: Part One (7.9/10)

    I wanted to watch this movie based on all the high ratings and feedback for Part Two that is in theaters right now. Part One seemed more so of a setter for what is to come in Part Two. I felt this movie had great promise and a ridiculous cast. I was a little disappointed in the CGI but I felt the plot has a lot of potential. Looking forward to watching Part Two soon. "Paul Atreides, a brilliant and gifted young man born into a great destiny beyond his understanding, must travel to the most dangerous planet in the universe to ensure the future of his family and his people. As malevolent forces explode into conflict over the planet's exclusive supply of the most precious resource in existence, only those who can conquer their own fear will survive."

  • Beau Is Afraid (6.5/10)

    I have no idea what I just watched. This was a bizarre film from front to end. I don't recommend anyone really watching this unless you are a film geek looking for something really unique. "A reserved man who makes regular visits to a therapist to manage his anxiety finds himself challenged when he embarks on a tumultuous and emotional odyssey to get home to his mother."

  • The Abyss (.8/10)

    What a pitiful film.

  • Significant Other (6.2/10)

    This suspense film was great for the first half before a random plot twist. The second half was not executed well and I wish they had taken a different direction with the movie. "While on a remote backpacking trip through the Pacific Northwest, a young couple sense they may not be alone. As things take a dark turn, they find there is no one to trust -- not even each other."

  • The Beekeeper (5.8/10)

    I liked the plot but it was another classic Jason Statham movie. It was ridiculous at times but still entertaining. "One man's brutal campaign for vengeance takes on national stakes after it's revealed he's a former operative of a powerful and clandestine organization known as Beekeepers."

  • Midnight in Paris (7.9/10)

    Owen Wilson and Rachel McAdams starred with notable cameos in this 2011 film. The beginning was confusing but once you got the gist of the plot it was clever. A good comedy romance for the early 2010s. "Gil Pender (Owen Wilson) is a screenwriter and aspiring novelist. Vacationing in Paris with his fiancee (Rachel McAdams), he has taken to touring the city alone. On one such late-night excursion, Gil encounters a group of strange -- yet familiar -- revelers, who sweep him along, apparently back in time, for a night with some of the Jazz Age's icons of art and literature. The more time Gil spends with these cultural heroes of the past, the more dissatisfied he becomes with the present."

  • You Hurt My Feelings (5.5/10)

    The acting was great, the plot was not my cup of tea. I felt it was too slow and I was lost at times struggling to pay attention. The ending picked up but the front half was hard to get through. "A novelist's long-standing marriage suddenly turns upside down when she overhears her husband give his honest reaction to her latest book."
