Barbie (2023) Review – Love Letter to All Woman, Mothers… and Ken?

Posted on By Luke 3 Comments on Barbie (2023) Review – Love Letter to All Woman, Mothers… and Ken?

Unless you are living literally under a rock, you must have heard aboutĀ Barbie. Whether it’s the doll or this film, or maybe you have heard or even participated in theĀ BarbenheimerĀ (the event where you watched both this film andĀ OppenheimerĀ (2023, my reviewĀ here), the same day/weekend they came out), it was impossible to escape the campaign behind this…

Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again (2018) Review – Sometimes, Candy is All You Need

Posted on By Luke No Comments on Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again (2018) Review – Sometimes, Candy is All You Need

I need to start this review by clarifying something – the firstĀ Mamma Mia!Ā (2008) is my happy place. It was one of those feel-good movies we would have on many times because my mum absolutely loved it back when I called the Czech Republic my home. I must have seen that movie at least ten times,…

Oppenheimer (2023) Review – Powerfully Haunting Biopic

Posted on By Luke 1 Comment on Oppenheimer (2023) Review – Powerfully Haunting Biopic

I have been looking forward toĀ OppenheimerĀ ever since it was announced. I am unapologetic about my love and adoration forĀ Christopher Nolan, and I revere him as one of the best directors of his generation, someone whose movies are always uniquely “his”, no matter the subject matter. And it precisely is that unique “Nolan” flair that makes…

Cunk on Earth (Season One) Review – Asking the Hard Hitting Questions

Posted on By Luke No Comments on Cunk on Earth (Season One) Review – Asking the Hard Hitting Questions

I need to be honest here – I don’t really watch documentaries. I know I should, and I understand that now we have more quality documentary movies coming out than ever, but… I prefer narrative films. I always thought about it this way – watching movies and TV shows is my way of switching off…

ArcaneĀ (Season One) Review – It’s Good, But…

Posted on By Luke No Comments on ArcaneĀ (Season One) Review – It’s Good, But…

When this show came out in late 2021, I completely missed it. Part of it must have been the fact I have never played the game this show is based on (League of Legends), and the other part might have been that almost nobody I follow said much about it except for one person (if…

No Hard Feelings (2023) Review – JLaw Is Back

Posted on By Luke 1 Comment on No Hard Feelings (2023) Review – JLaw Is Back

I remember watching the first trailer forĀ No Hard FeelingsĀ a few months ago and thinking this would either be a funny movie or a pretty miserable experience, but I was intrigued byĀ Jennifer LawrenceĀ acting in a straight-up raunchy comedy. After fairly positive reviews from critics and audiences alike, I caught it in the cinemas and was glad…

Creed IIIĀ (2023) Review – Predictably Great Finish (?)

Posted on By Luke No Comments on Creed IIIĀ (2023) Review – Predictably Great Finish (?)

Out of all the franchises, I thought we didn’t need back, anythingĀ RockyĀ related was at the top of my imaginary list. That was untilĀ CreedĀ (2015) came out, and it was a perfect boxing movie. I was on board with everything that movie did, and even the sequelĀ Creed IIĀ (2018) was almost perfect (I rated it 4.5/5*). And whatĀ Creed…

Asteroid CityĀ (2023) Review – Sneakily Amazing

Posted on By Luke No Comments on Asteroid CityĀ (2023) Review – Sneakily Amazing

The movies ofĀ Wes AndersonĀ have been solid 10/10 (or 5/5) sinceĀ Fantastic Mr. FoxĀ (2009). Sure, he “only” directed four movies since (five if you includeĀ Asteroid City), but that’s still an impressive feat. I should note that I am only talking about feature-length films, and I have yet to seeĀ The French DispatchĀ (2021), which is on my Disney+ queue…
